Is she guilty

[Aussie Mike]

Indonesia is a corrupt place. I worked there many times in a previous job. I was there just before the big riots in the late 90's and got out in a hurry. Traveling in and out of many asian countries in that reigion and Indonesia was the only one where customs required some grease to let you slide you through. Just a big corrupt dung pile, I have no desire to go back there.

From what I've heard the Indonesian justice system puts the onus on the defence to prove inocence rather than the prosucution to prove guilt. When you have the Indonesian police force doing the investigation it's got more to do with how it looks on camera when your waving the evidince around rather than actual forensic investigation.

Guilty or not Schapelle never had a chance once the media got hold of it. Now with no oportunity to grease her way out wth some cash placed in the right hands Shappelle had to have her day in court. The Aussie media may have made her out to be the inocent victim But the Indonesian media touted her as "Lady Marijuana" like she was some drug cartel king pin. with that kind of circus was there ever any doubt what the verdict would be?

We gave them something like AU$1BN last year in aid and what the hell do we get out of it. I would rather that money was invested on something that will benefit Australia and Indonesia can go and drown in it's own sh*t.
