I honestly hadn't heard of it until your post on the topic.

My reaction would be that oft times people travel to other countries and forget that they will be under the laws of that country, much to their detriment. Same thing happens here with folks going to Mexico for example. They also mistakenly assume that since the rule of law is not common in the country being visited they can get away with what they regard as minor violations. This can lead to rude awakenings and life altering events.

Honestly, without knowing if she's an okay person or not, I feel sorry for her but only up to a point.
