nah but i reckon corby's was real. Put there by her brother, taking over for mercedes husband to sell.

Let's assume the brother put it in there, do you think Shapelle was aware ?
It was a bloody big bag of pot. They didn't conceal it very well did they ?
I believe she is innocent. I base this solely on that IMO nobody could be that stupid to pack 4 kg's of pot into their body board cover and hope and prey they don't get searched (I'm aware this wouldn't stack up in court). It appeared way too risky. Why not pack it into the inner lining of a suitcase ?

Maybe she was that dumb.

There was the video of her and family or friends smoking pot years ago yet she claimed in court she had no idea what drugs looked like. Video very promptly squashed by the family and lawyer/s after being aired once or twice.

They all claimed it must have been the baggage handlers. Yeah right, baggage handlers sitting around with 4kg of mull packaged just right for a bodyboard cover and hoping one comes theu that day....

I find it more easy to believe she has family and friends who are druggies and she knows it..... so even if she is not a drug courier then she should have had the brains to pack her own sh!t when those close to her are users, if not dealers.

Is there anyone in Oz who doesn't know the consequences of being caught with drugs in Bali? I mean, anyone at all!

free long term holiday? I was over in Penang when Barlow and Chambers were to be hung...., re-packed my backpack at the airport just to be on the safe side, travelled with a couple of mates all through SE Asia for 2 months had a ball.

Obviously is! Remember he is only fourteen and has probably spent too any of his formative years playing computer games with eyes like pee holes. Was it just time for another lesson, did his folks get the opportunity to pay a bribe and refuse?

Tonights news, for what it's worth, stated that he'd been asking around where he could get hold of some gear. If that's true (and I do mean if), refer to,

and also Dins - The news I just saw too also said that the ministry of veritable balinese smorgasbords of deceit & corruption stuffed up by not interviewing the minor WITHOUT his parents/guardian present at that time.

The barlayians must be sick of the Aussie Yobbo, so every now and again

they use a case like this to simmer things down and put out, reinforce the

message. A lot of pride gets hurt and its a big story for a while, until

some other gook runs a reef in NZ or bigger still will the Kiwi's take out

the mountain on sunday. mr u no who will deal with the diplomats [}:)]

like this?

When the news broke I was having dinner with a mate (and desperately trying , but failing abysmally,not to perve at his drop-dead gorgeous sister too[}:)])
our first thoughts were -where were his guardians , who would let their 14 year old kid alone over there? ... and no didn't think that at all Dins.

@saltiest1: only effect on the body is better vision.

But there must be more to life than being really, really, really, ridiculously good looking?

Don't get the idea that I'd ever support the Indons. I spent a few too many months there with the Ozzie armed forces - I'd never actually pay money to go back there. Also saw that they interviewed the wrong bloke at first. But that doesn't alter the fact that kid must be completely brain dead, asking around for dope in Bali. Everyone in Oz knows, and I'd never be convinced that the kid is the only known exception. He just thought he was smarter than everyone else by half. Besides, what's a 14 year old doing procuring dope?
All that said, I hope they do get him back, and that he's smart enough to learn a lesson for life. He's still young.

Well it is said that the cops had to wait for him outside a massage parlour where he got "serviced" by a 19 yo girl! (Happy ending???) WTF ??? Had no son but if I was on vacation in such a place I would make sure my teen hormones filled kids would not run amok in hooker's capital streets!!!
The kid was stupid..... not streetwise! But dad and mum even more!
Hope he will come out of it though!

They do warn you as you enter Bali. You pass a big sign. DRUGS ATTRACT THE DEATH PENALTY. That is enough reason for me not to get involved in any whilst there. I would of though just being there is a natural high.
Respect the laws & customs whilst in Baqli & you will have a good time.

just watching the news and they said that Julia rang the boy.....I wonder wether she rang all the other Aussies in there offering her support?

I think the Indo government should stick to their guns on this. But at 14 do they really want to put him away for 5-6 years? Maybe stick the family with a big fine so future familys will take resposibily for their kids while on holidays.

yep a huge fine. so when he comes back to oz he wont be bragging to his mates cause the old man would be beating his arse cause it will be out of his pocket. and he is stupid.. he should have went to the rub and tug stoned and there would be no drama..just a happy ending

smoking dope, getting happy endings. Mature beyond his years!

I'd be sending the little prick to reform school

Hell probably be home soon, managed by max markinson and have a Big dollar interview on ACA or 60 minutes. shouldn't be allowed to profit i reckon - can pay the Aus govt for expenses incurred.

Is that coz she's a "ranga"??

Oh goodie - someone did finally bring up the prospect of the megabuck story for the magazinas slash Idiotbox ... odds on for Pup!

When is she due out, by the way, few years ?
It's gonna be a media frenzy when she does, she'll be an instant personality, with books and movies and all.
