Yep, hard to say so but I actually agreed with every word Bolter wrote (still shaking my head about that).
My particular favourite outburst was from Corby's mother "our witnesses swore on a bible!"
And there I thought the 'liar, liar, pants on fire' defence was no longer employable. Silly me |

I think you may be confusing possession with trafficking. Anyway, that's their law, and anyone travelling there not aware of it would be close to being the thickest person on the planet.

I think it's been pointed out Indonesia apparently use an inquisitorial system as opposed to an adversarial system. I'm not enough of a legal eagle to tell you the pros and cons of each system (or their variants). Then again, haven't heard of the Indonesian legal system locking up some innocent mother after a dingo killed her baby, so perhaps it's got that in it's favour.
Corby's problem was she (or her legal team) never really came up with anything other than gossip to 'prove' her innocence.
Like I said in an earlier post, there's more to this than has been revealed, and the way it looks at the moment, we'll be waiting 20 years for the book (truth?) to come out. |

Latest word out of Indonesia is that Judge Surelynot Bangbang Shootemindehead, the judge who presided over the Corby case, has signed a lucrative endorsement for the newly released Indonesian Edition of Monopoly.
Here's a look at the game board:

I heard that Victa have unveiled a new lawnmower model, the "Schapelle Corby 2005".
It holds 4.1kg of grass and is guaranteed for 20 years....

Not often that I'd agree with that statement, but in this case I do. |

| Great article from Bolt, In addition, its not just how we look to the Indonesians over this farce, its also the region and beyond who have taken notice, many of them mystified and others simply shrugging and saying 'I told you so'. |

'Save Schapelle'
Starring ; Arnold Swatsanigger , Sylvester Stillstoned , Steven Seagull and Chuck Northis.
Watch as our heavily armed hero squad of ex navy seals , SAS and special forces storm a dingy rat infested gaol , no , make that a dingy rat infested country !
Armed with more ammunition than the previous 2 gulf wars and a new gobal thermonuclear big mother Ł$%$er gun like you always wanted whilst playing armies.
See our heros narrowly miss being shot by 40,000 rounds a minute , gasp as they clutch the beautiful prisoner and rush her to the safe haven that is Christmas Island. |
but seriously anybody even contemplating 'rescuing' Schapelle Corby must be insane.... the Australian government would have no choice but to track them down, and she would be put in a higher security prison and might even cop a longer sentence
