Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.

A lot of druggies I know think she's crying wolf because she should have detected all the extra weight. It's a harsh sentence and she's getting a lot of publicity so she might get to return to Australia.

I hadn't heard one way or another if she even had handled her baggage after it was supposedly tampered with. Even if she had handled her own bags she might not have realized it right away......I know how tired and flaked out I get when I travel, she just might not have noticed.

I still don't get why pot is such a horrible drug in all our countries. Legalize it already! :wobble:

RandyGal,

Legalisation of pot will have to wait until the Govmint can tax it effectively and breath

test for it accurately, like it does with Alcohol.

It brings out psychoses in a small number of it's users, but they can't say in advance who

it will fuck up. Kinda sorta like alcohol, eh?

Schapelle Corby's alleged crime has been so badly reported over here we don't know if

it was enough for it to be in her baggage (an absolute offence like speeding where there is no

mitigation) and all they were arguing over was how long she's get or whether it required

elements of knowledge and thus a guilty mind.

The water's too muddy now and the poor girl, innocent or guilty, is in a jail cell with seven

others for the next 20 years.

Just as a matter of interest, check the sentence of the mastermind of the Bali bombing,

to see the comparative importance the Indons place between 4kg of dope and planning

the deaths of about 200 people.

It doesn't make sense the difference between the sentences....but then again nothing makes much sense in certain parts of the world.

The sentence is most definately unjust......but what can be done? Is there anyway the government of Australia can debate that she serve her sentence in Australia?

I was IMing with bronzedozzy as he was watching them hand down their verdict.......sounds like a lot of people think she got a bum rap but the kicker IS is that 20 years has to be considered a cake walk when you realize that this sentence could have WELL carried the death penalty.

It's a horrible sad story for everyone. I hope they're able to make some kind of prisoner exchange.

And another thing *she said with her hands on her hips*.......
What's up with the bad press against pot anyway? LOL I think it's a fine drug, safer and healthier than drinkin' that's for dang sure.
