corby-guilty!

[npg]

what a f*cking disgrace!!!!!! schapelle corby has been found guilty in indonesia for importing grass. 20 years jail...what a joke!
indo police stuffed up the investigation....it's obvious the drugs were planted. the same day she left sydney airport, baggage handlers took a $500k bribe to look after a briefcase of coke.

Nothing is obvious. It is sad that she is going through this, but why are people outraged about her possible innocence, but not others who are in similar situations. Are we swayed by a pretty face?

Seems like the Indo legal system is about the defendent having to prove themselves innocent, rather than the prosecution having to prove guilt. No fingerprints, dodgy arrest procedures - only piece of hard evidence was that the boogie board belonged to her, no evidence that she was responsible for the dope. Guilty or not, she would not have been found it under a legal system that requires the prosecution to prove guilt. Judge apparently has a record 500 out of 500 guilty verdicts. Guess he didn't want to lose face.

do you think i am that stupid sws?

[Gum Tree]

sws - I think the pretty face was an issue so far as the media coverage was concerned. But interestingly, the media coverage gave a lot of people a chance to weigh up things like body language, facial expressions etc. That is my theory on why so many feel she is not guilty - I think it is the evidence of your own eyes. No person could act so well under such duress for such a long period of time unless they were telling the truth. Just my opinion. The actual facts and evidence is another side to it.

as GT pointed out above...the only hard evidence is that she owned the board. who would take grass worth approx' $60>80k to bali and sell it for $4k? they didn't even finger print the bag containing the grass...the indo top cop came out and said they stuffed it up and that there is no proof the grass belonged to corby. and indo want to be taken seriously>
