Guilty by association?
But she looks innocent!
I'm sure the movie will reveal all.
Especially the profit motive.

Yeah reminded me of a cow catcher from a steam train

Now that Corby is guilty shouldn't all the money raised be given back... Little kids donated money

Former friend 'ruined Corby's last chance'
Tuesday Feb 13 05:00 AEDT By ninemsn staff and wires

Mercedes Corby has defended her sister Schapelle, lashing out at a former friend's claims that the convicted drug smuggler tried to entice her to transport drugs to Bali. The Seven Network's Today Tonight ran the claims in a paid interview with Queensland woman Jodi Power, who Mercedes says was motivated by spite.

Mercedes is planning legal action against the network, which she says has potentially ruined her sister's last opportunity for freedom, The Daily Telegraph reports. "Schapelle is in her final appeal and for Jodi to come out and lie is low," Mercedes said. "If there was a shred of truth in these claims, why wouldn't she have gone to the police instead of going on national TV and getting paid for it?"

In the Today Tonight interview, Power also claimed to have seen a vacuum-sealed bag in Schapelle's home that was later used to smuggle marijuana into Bali. "Mercedes asked if I would ever do it, if I would ever take drugs over to Bali, and I said no, I've got two kids and I wouldn't do that and she went on to tell me that she had taken drugs over before," Power said.

Power submitted three polygraph tests to Channel 7 to prove her claims. She failed the first, but passed the other two.

Last night Power's husband, Michael Ripley, said he doesn't believe her. "I still believe Schapelle is completely innocent," Ripley said. "Jodi has always had a tendency to come to her own conclusions about things ”” and those conclusions are quite often wrong." , etc

Before we start celebrating at her (Schappelle's) expense, let's let her have her chance at a fair hearing in appeal. sheesh.

Re: Please Sign *SCHAPELLE CORBY* Petition

There is one thing that story on Today Tonight convinced me of... and that is that what passes for "current affairs" on television these days is a complete and utter disgrace. A great reminder of why I rarely watch television. The common denominator must be pretty low these days.

Best show on TV (when available) imo is "Media Watch" - when the channels and other media get just a fraction of the scrutiny they so happily dish out. (including legal matters before the court , without concern of whether they are screwing up the case for the defence - or the prosecution half the time).

just a thought, and I'm not condoning either activity, but personally I'd like to know the difference between a drug pusher and a cigarette company.

I am very hurt by how the media has treated this story. SHAME SHAME SHAME. They have failed to celebrate another Australian export success story.

We successfully exported 1 bogan/white trash for at least 20 years
However, like AWB and shipments to Saudia Arabia, we are having problems with other shipments such as another bogan with a name of a car and teeth like a cow catcher.

However, we should not forget, apart from the 1st high profile bogan, we did manage to export another 9 people.

Australians, please go out and celebrate another great export success!
And remember to do your bit, if you see a bogan, make sure you buy them a one way ticket to Bali.

Mercedes told the Telegraph last night from her Bali home that Power isn't aware of the effect her actions could have on Schapelle's case.
"Jodi has got a vendetta against me. What she doesn't realise is what her lies are doing to Schapelle," she said. "My sister is sitting in jail here for 20 years for something she didn't do."

Vote on Nine MSN around midday today, looks like 5 to 1 more people believe new story.

Doesn’t look like the end of this, somehow I lost interest.

This jodi power may be a liar (or may not be) but I think this story has shown that Mercedes is a liar... after all they did have pictures of her smoking pot, something to which she has previously denied.

Schapelle Corby, Innocent or Guilty? Poll

Sorry for the second Schapelle post but I want to know what you all think:

Considering the latest news, do you believe Schapelle Corby is innocent?
I know that no one will ever know the answer to this question but given all the information that has been given, be it true or false, what do you think?

For me, I have always given it.... probably 70% chance that she was innocent but after going over a heap of information in the last couple of days, plus the new news, Im not quite so sure anymore. And theres more to come tonight on 'Today Tonight' I believe.

This from nine msn
By ninemsn staff and wires

Schapelle Corby's sister says she has contacted her lawyer to initiate legal action against the Seven Network's Today Tonight program after it broadcast claims she tried to entice a former friend to smuggle drugs.

Mercedes Corby told broadcaster Alan Jones that she had sent an email to her lawyer in relation to the paid interview, in which her former friend Jodi Power made serious allegations about the Corby family.

In the Today Tonight interview, Power also claimed to have seen a vacuum-sealed bag in Schapelle's home that was similar to the one used to smuggle marijuana into Bali.

Power sat next to Mercedes Corby during parts of Schapelle's trial. She flew into Bali on October 8, 2004 ”” the same day Schapelle Corby was arrested.

"Mercedes asked if I would ever do it, if I would ever take drugs over to Bali, and I said no, I've got two kids and I wouldn't do that and she went on to tell me that she had taken drugs over before," Power said.

Power submitted three polygraph tests to Today Tonight to prove her claims. She failed the first, but passed the other two.

Mercedes Corby accused Power of stabbing her family in the back, telling The Australian her former friend was motivated by spite.

"She's vindictive, manipulative and a liar. She's got mental problems and she'll do anything for money," Mercedes said.

"I'm prepared to take a lie detector test, anything, against all this stuff."

I would really like to see that lie detector test!!! Today Tonight, ACA, 60 minutes etc..... get onto her
