You can’t help but feel sympathy for Schapelle Corby, the 27-year-old Australian woman at the centre of a drugs trial in Bali.
Surely she cannot have been so stupid as to try to smuggle 4kg of marijuana into Bali, where it would sell for less than it does on the streets of Australia.
If she was indeed that stupid, she needs help, not jail time. Her defence claims she was the unwitting victim of a domestic drug-smuggling operation gone wrong, but from the little I know of drug rings, I would have thought they were more sophisticated than to bung dope with a wholesale value of more than $36,000 into some random body-board bag and just hope for the best.

Guilty until proven innocent?
Another reason not to go to terrorist-sympathizing hellhole Indonesia. A few months after accepting huge sums of charity during the tsunami disaster, the Indonesian government and people are in a fit of xenophobic rage and determined to lynch a white, infidel Australian girl, Schapelle Corby, dubbed that “Ganja Queen” by the local yellow press.
Worse of all, the farce of Indonesian “justice” has been revealed to the world. Here, the “criminal” (not suspect) must prove their innocence! Never mind that most drug traffickers would take the easily available drugs from Indonesia and sell them in Australia, not bring them from pricier Australia to sell in Bali. Better yet, the integrity of the evidence has been totally destroyed, with everyone including the judge handling the drug bag and getting their fingerprints all over it. After ruining the evidence, the police refused to fingerprint it as the defense asked since the integrity of the evidence has been destroyed (by the police themselves)! And to top it all off, draconian penalties could give the girl either a life sentence or the death penalty. This, the same failed state which gave mass-murderer terrorist mastermind Bashir something like three years for a mini-genocide of infidels in Bali. If this isn’t a legal lynching, and a racist one at that, I don’t know what is. So chalk up another reason to cancel that trip to the terror-loving, corrupt Javanese empire.
