Jarydar,
True, if she's guilty, however there are so many facts that prove otherwise.
* Aussie customs picked up NOTHING in their x-ray of her luggage. They have some of the best and most hi-tech equipment in the world. Don't you think they'd notice a 4kg bag the size of a boogie board?
* The dope bag contains a SECOND bag inside it, which the Bali police have REFUSED to fingerprint!! They say "it is not necessary"!! Why? Obviously because they know that it will prove Schapelle's innocence. Only the dealers would have touched this one.
* That bag of drugs in Australia is worth well over 2 million dollars:
- where would Schapelle, a beauty school student, get that money
to buy it in the first place??
- why would anyone try and sell it in Bali, where it is not worth
even a tenth of that amount??
* Why would anyone be that stupid?
* The customs officers originally got Schapelle younger brother to open the bag & place it on the scales, putting his prints on it. They thought it was his bag, and were trying to implicate him. Unfortunately for them (ha suckers) it wasn't his at all.
* A Norwegian man who had a similar thing happen in Bali has offered his support to Schapelle's legal team. He had drugs planted in his bag coming into Bali about five years ago.
etc.
Yet the Bali police are ignoring ALL these facts. They say: "There is no point. Smugglers always say they are innocent. It's normal."
??!?!? Where is either the logic, or the justice, there??
What's happening to Schapelle could happen to any one of us. Everyone should be following this case, it has serious ramifications for Bali travellers everywhere.
