I watched Ganja Queen last night and wanted to ask your opinion on the debacle? It sure was intense!

I'm not sure if she's guilty or innocent, but there was a lot of strange, circumstancial events that went down prior to getting on the plane to Bali and after her final sentancing.

Schapelle Leigh Corby (born 10 July 1977) is an Australian convicted and imprisoned in Indonesia for drug smuggling. She was a beauty therapy student from Queensland.

Corby is serving a 20-year sentence (for which she has received approximately one year in remissions) for the importation of 4.2 kg (9.3 lb) of cannabis into Bali, Indonesia. She was convicted and sentenced in Bali on 27 May 2005 by the Denpasar (Indonesia) District Court and currently serves her sentence in Kerobokan Prison, Bali. On appeal, her conviction and sentence were confirmed with finality by the Indonesian Supreme Court. No further legal manoeuvres on her part are possible; she may petition for clemency from Indonesia's president, but would have to admit guilt to do so.

Corby has maintained from the time of her arrest that the drugs were planted in her boogie board bag and that she did not know about them.[1] Her trial and conviction were a major focus of attention for the Australian media. Her current release date, with remissions, is in 2024.

On 22 June 2008 in Australia, the Nine Network showed the first part of a documentary which included an interview with Corby's former lawyer, Robin Tampoe, who said that the story of the drugs being planted in her bag was a fabrication. The lawyer later apologised to Australian baggage handlers.

Did she admit it?

They're all innocent.

Wow. It's a good thing all that pot was taken off the streets of Indonesia. Think of all the people who would have been killed!

Just another reason tht MJ should be legalized.

It's really stupid isn't it? I mean cannabis prohibition. I don't use it, I don't even smoke tobacco, never have and if it was legalised I probably wouldn't use it but I am very opposed to its prohibition and making criminals out of recreational users.

Now, to Ms Corby. Yes I think she did it. The word is that she was bringing in the cannabis (apparently much stronger than the Bali variety) for someone else to distribute. I'll watch my words here because I don't want to get Jim or myself in strife (our libel laws in Australian states are very strict). No I don't have any proof at all of any of that, it's just what I heard from a couple of people who know her family.

Like I said, I don't know enough about what went on to make any type of judgement - BUT, if I had spidey senses I'd put my money on the father and his friend......and inevitably her. PM me if you want.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

A CONVICTED drug trafficker has revealed he supplied the marijuana that Schapelle Corby was caught trying to smuggle through Bali airport.

Malcolm McCauley spent 15 months in jail for his role in a drug syndicate that transported 100 kilograms of cannabis from South Australia to Queensland between January 2004 and November 2005.

"This was no bush weed," McCauley said of the marijuana. "It was excellent South Australian hydro, and it had an excellent reputation in Bali."

That makes perfect sense - hence her supposed "shock" when the bag was opened. I knew something was up with the old man.

She was right in the end though, she should have put locks on the boogie board bag!
