It is quite an alarming thought isn't it.... if someone puts something in your bag, without your knowledge, you haven't a leg to stand on really, have you?

My one question is WHY? Why would someone put something of such value in a complete strangers bag? This is absolute fantasy stuff to think that smugglers would put that much dope in a complete strangers bag in the hope of being able to recover it at the other end.

And explod you say 80% admit guilt, that still leaves 20% who are either innocent or lying. And I reckon 19.9% are lying. Isn't possession 9/10ths the law?

If they have possession. I would argue that Corby did not have exclusive possession.

If that were true, then every prosecution by customs and federal police of people caught with stuff in their bags wouldn't stand up in court.

Again I ask the question of why a complete stranger would put something in your bag?

When you travel to these countries it is easy to see how a frequent traveller (read smuggler) could become complacent about getting stuff in illegally. When I first travelled overseas, going through customs was nothing compared to what it is like coming back into Australia. And I have been to places where drug smuggelling is high on the agenda - Malaysia, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, etc. It always amazes me how I have more trouble getting back into my own country.
 

For those who would like to be a "bit more aware" of the chain of events leading up to the arrest of Kay and Kerry Danes in Laos in December 2000, I refer you to the following link. It is an interesting story.

Hey GumNut I have no malice toward the Indonesian people so keep your advise to yourself. What will Schapelle have to surrender a 30day remission? It is not a secret that Indonesia has a serious issue with human rights abuses. I don't give a hoot who your contacts are. In the March 07' U.S State Dept. report on human rights abuses in Indonesia, it stated; The government generally has been unable to adequetely address serious human rights abuses committed in the past. Inadequate resources, weak leadership, and LIMITED ACCOUNTABILITY contributed to continued abuses by security force personnel... The following human rights problems occurred during the year: unlawful killings by security force personnel, terrorists, vigilante groups and mobs, torture, harsh prison conditions; arbitrary detentions; A CORRUPT JUDICIAL SYSTEM, on and on and on..... no secrets there. Not to mention the 2005 beheadings of three teenage girls. More and more are learning of this and are repulsed.
 
Quoting the United States pointing the finger at alleged human rights abuses in Indonesia really made me laugh. This is the country that "it is alleged" doesn't think twice about kidnapping dissidants, placing a bag over their head and sending them to Egypt for torture, then relocating them to Guantanamo Bay for further psychlogical abuse. Get real.
Reminds me of the slogan during the Vietnam war, "Fighting for peace is like Farking for Chastity".
 

Sue, have just spoke to two young guys who go to Bali regular for the birds,booze,bongs, they always take boards with them, I like this bit, they have NEVER BEEN STOPPED AND CHECKED GOING IN TO BALI EVER, why did they stop the DRUG MULE, they had been told what was coming.
 

All I'm saying is that your intemperate remarks about Indonesia will not change the system there, and will not lead to an improvement in the chances of Ms.Corby getting a remission in her sentence.

I see that as a sensible comment.

I do miss Zack, even though he couldn't spell venom, or was it you who couldn't spell venom.

Anyway they are my thoughts and it appears more share my thoughts than yours.

Grew up in that period, never heard that one, LOL great quote Nulla
 

OPRAH, Are you there? OPRAAAAHHHHH!!! Are you there?

Oprah's reply:

Hi, thank you for your interest in Oprah.com. Unfortunately Ms. Winfrey's schedule doesn't allow time to read or respond to message board postings.

Like Oprah really cares Sue!
 
The article posted on Ruby Sapphire.... is written by someone who had no idea what was going on... so he just put his own spin on things! I actually know the person who owns that website. If you keep searching you'll find the usual media spin on things that was created by the Secret Police Colonel who abducted my husband and told the media that I had 160kg of sapphires in my underwear. If you believe that, you'll believe anything.

Not sure why you are continuing to try and discredit me. After all, I am NO threat to anyone here.

In reply to the comment made about planting drugs in someone's bag, it happens. Of course the majority of drug mules know exactly what they are doing and yes, many claim they didn't know what it was in their bag or strapped to their body. But there have been some cases where drugs were planted in their bags and they were completely unaware.

Hell you must have good knickers if you can hold 160kg in them.
 

GG my contacts in Jakarta have an interest in Sue. Sue's real name is Harry ####### and resides in New York. His ID Suehprom is Morpheus spelt in reverse which is the ID of another free Schapelle campaigner. Harry also uses the ID, 'Dadotara' on other Free Schapelle Campaign sites according to my source. They're popping up everywhere!!
 

Preposterous hypothesis, but its better than your Shakespeare poem.
 

Very interesting.

My contact Ms.Tingtong's long term boyfriend works for MI5.

He has been posted to New York by the Brits.

Isn't it a small world.

He's a bit of a dag, introduces himself as " The name is, Punt, Dudley Punt".

I'm quite sure Ms.Tingtong will be on the blower , excuse the pun, to him.

That's what I was thinking. Can't believe anyone would suggest this. It would be about twice the weight of a large woman.
