Mr Jansen Can you give me a plausible answer as to why Schapelle would request the footage from every airport her BB bag went through? She was under threat of execution at the time she made the request. If any cctv footage showed her bag to be thicker then it should have been, it would have been proof positive and she would of had to change her plea to guilty. What do think she was suicidal at the time? Also Mr Jansen have you ever heard of the police holding evidence, and destroying that evidence before all appeals have been exhausted? If the marjuana came from Australia there was no need to destroy it.If it was Indonesian dope, the police would want it destroyed as quickly as possible.It would be a tad embarrassing for them when it was tested and shown to be Indonesian. Australia should of demanded a sample to DNA test ! This was not a charge of possession,Schapelle was charged with smuggling drugs from one country to another.The Indonesians had a legal duty to forward a sample to the AFP.Mick Keelty on Jan 31 2006 reported that Schapelle NEVER requested the marijuana tested. I have a copy from the Australian Consulate General Bali in front me that requests for the DNA tests to be DONE .the date on the request is 23rd December 2004. Do some research Mr Jansen , you might actually be amazed at what you find.

Seen my report yet on all them Aliens floating 'round the Appalachians? Ain't nothin that a Barrett .50 rifle can't handle none.

I ain't never surprised no more 'bout how stupid and crazy all them screwed up meth-huffin peopl are in this thar world of ours.

Why don't you join up with the 9/11 conspiracy nuts? I am sure in your twisted imaginations you Schapelle lovers could concoct some global conspiracy between the Indonesian Government, the Australian media, and Uncle Sam, that involves keeping Ms Corby in prison for having someone stick a bag full of dope in her luggage.

Crazies.

If an Indonesian arrived with a bag of dope to any western country and the officer at the customs desk said he heard the tourist admit he owned the drugs , it would probably go down like this... Superior "so he admitted to you the drugs were his" ? C.O. "yep told my flat out they were his" Superior "so he speaks english eh"? CO "no he confessed to me in Indonesian" Superior "oh right you speak Indonesian" ? CO "nope hardly understand a word" Superior "GET THE F#<K OUT OF MY OFFICE YOU STUPID DUMB ARSE IDIOT"!!!!!!

I suggest you read the facts(Tony Wilsons) book "SCHAPELLE" BEFORE YOU MAKE JUDGEMENT! ONLY THEN CAN YOU BE IN A POSITION TO MAKE A FAIR AND HONEST OPINION AS TO WHETHER SCHAPELLE CORBY IS GUILTY OR INNOCENT. THIS BOOK IS UNBIASED AND TRUTHFUL ACCOUNT OF THE FACTS. ITS EXPLOSIVE READING UNCOVERING COLLUSION, CONSPIRACY, AND POLITICAL CORRUPTNESS WITH THE MEDIA FEEDING THE PUBLIC NOTHING BUT EXAGGERATED LIES.

The only fact that turned Schapelles world upside down was that pot was in her boogie board bag. Could it have been put in there by someone after she checked it in at Brisbane luggage check in? ABSOLUTELY COULD HAVE BEEN ! Many had access to the bag after that. Would they test the pot? No. Any surveillance footage? Conveniently, No. Did they weigh the luggage compared to check in? No. Any follow up investigation of trafficking? No. On and On and On. She should have walked that day!!! Australian government? Silent ????

Voice of "Reason" I hope you remember those words someday when you're accused of something you didn't do! Does your simple brain actually believe that everyone who has ever been conviced of something is guilty? Do you have any idea how many convictions are overturned in the US which unlike Indonesia actually has a fair judicial system. Get with reality! Simple as that.

Once again it is plain for all to see. The flawless and perfect functioning of "free market forces" sprays us all with the balm of warm golden showers containing the pure essence of Jewish mercantilism. It doesn't get any better than this!

Some people are extremely sad: like the guy calling himself "Voice of Reason", who trolls every Schapelle Corby story to spout semi illiterate compassionless bile - as fed directly by the mainstream media. The irony of this completely escapes him, given the topic of this story. You have to laugh. It’s simply pathetic. I watched the video. It really is something. They both are. The media one should be mandatory viewing for every Australian who has bought into what the media has sold them for over 4 years. The tragedy is the terrible suffering that this has resulted in for Schapelle Corby.

Schapelle is not guilty! But even for someone found guilty, Schapelle's sentence is horrific, longer than that of murderers, and she is suffering in deplorable, inhumane conditions. Thank God for Tara - let her voice be heard in AU and let Schapelle be freed.

Doesn't matter how many songs you sing, or bed sheets you hang up. She was busted and like any crim has to do the time.

Simple as that.

They are NOT going to like this! That girl Tara just won't lie down and go away. Magnificent. When did you last hear or see anything like this? The Oz media should be hanging its head in shame, with the gov. Well done Tara Hack, and Rachal James. Australia has to wake up!

because he was a freemason like the MCC selectors at the time. And they ensured that only 'don-friendly' bowlers were picked for England whenever they played him.

Don't believe me? Then check the cunts record against Douglas Jardine, the only MCC captain who wasn't a freemason.

What kind of fool thang is that?

A bit of penal servitude as a scarecrow keeping evil things off my tomato plants is the only use I can immediately imagine for Howard. He is a tragically deficient creature, and it would be an extreme challenge to fit him to a productive task. He is an awful little prick, it might be better to call it penile servitude.

Off to well deserved international adulation. And then a well deserved retirement after a lifetime in service of the Australian people.

It's funny to hear an old arsehole talking about ripping a new arsehole.

I'm a forgiven man. My Lord and Savior will protect me from evil and rip Lucifer a new asshole.

Little Johnny Howard's reign of fear was built on a foundation of wilful social and economic violence. Justice requires that he be prosecuted for his actions. Then we might see if the little freak can grin his way out of that.

They can really chew on that jockstrap. If they buy one of non-core Johnny's much-used jockstraps, they could use it as a tea-bag! They would be in neo-Liberal Heaven!

These Labor clowns will drive Australia into the ground. With all their PC laws and enviro-madness this once proud Nation is turning into a looney left wonderland.

They got no bids!

Here's just a taste of Dubya's legacy: "five years after embarking on its largest foreign reconstruction project since the Marshall Plan in Europe after World War II, the United States government has in place neither the policies and technical capacity nor the organizational structure that would be needed to undertake such a program on anything approaching this scale."

The Lying Rodent spent 12 years wrecking Australia and you expect young Kev to repair it all in a year?

Yes, non-core John left an awful mess to fix, and wasn't it Loony Libs who got the Olympics that bankrupted NSW?

If we see a bit more of this I'll be right behind the Corby fight!

Justice or injustice? Who cares, as long as I have the horn!

Next think you'll be saying is George W Shit-for-brains is the most brilliant US President ever!

Mr Jansen, when Schapelle was arrested, the Australian people were on the verge of rioting on the streets. Anti-Indonesian sentiment was at an all-time high. It was a diplomatic catastrophe. In case you forgot, over 90% of Australians believed she was innocent.
Instead of doing the honourable thing and negotiating for Schapelle's release, the Australian government embarked on a smear campaign to kill off public support for her. It started with the fake anthrax attack ("Hey everyone, if you're a Schapelle supporter then you might be a terrorist"), then continued with a stream of nasty, unsubstantiated newspaper articles which continue to this day.
The Australian government has a long history of covering up for Indonesia. They lied about what happened to the Balibo Five, they kept the truth covered up for over 30 years. Our government also strip-searched journalists for footage of the Dili massacre to hide what was going on over there. What makes you think this is a conspiracy? It all makes perfect sense.

Mr Jansen, western governments (especially Australia) are trying to protect the illusion that Indonesia is a democracy. Once Schapelle was found guilty, Australians were on the verge of rioting on the streets. In case you forgot, at least 90% of the population believed she was innocent. It was a diplomatic catastrophe. The Australian government knows about the problems with the Indonesian judicial system. Instead of doing the honourable thing and negotiating to have her released, they embarked on a smear campaign to kill off public support for Schapelle. It all started with the fake anthrax attack, then continued with a stream of nasty, unsubstantiated newspaper articles. See the comment above.

Although I personally believe she is 100% guilty of drug smuggling considering there isn't any substantial evidence they have no right to imprison her. At the very least she should be jailed over here due to Indonesia's fuck up. They say they're serious about the "war against drugs" yet its always the drug user and not the drug dealer they imprison and//or execute.

Digger I hope that nick name is not in reference to Australian War Veterans. Their motto was don't turn your back on your mates. You however have demonstrated that you are happy to do just that without knowing the facts.

Notice these people that are anti Schapelle never have a arguement or give any reasoning as to why she is guilty. "Daaa red it in da payper mus be twue" or they like to insult Schapelle from behind their computers. Real brave to insult someone who cannot defend themselves.

Good. We are all better off without these druggie dimwits.

Wijaja - This may come as news to you, but innocent people are arrested all the time. Basically you're saying that if someone put a bag of mj in one of your possessions when you weren't looking and then are caught with it, you should do the time and shut up about it. FAIR trials normally sort out this kind of thing, but unfortunately Schapelle was not given the benefit of one of those. She was found guilty because she could not prove her innocence. She could not prove her innocence because she was not given the opportunity to do so. DNA testing and fingerprinting that Schapelle requested was denied. The airport "lost" the video footage of her checking in the boogie board bag. The judge she was tried in front of has never acquitted a single defendant. The fact that her bag was unlocked and out of her control for 12 hours and gone through two Australian airports where employees have been arrested for putting drugs in unknowing travelers bags should be reasonable doubt on it's own. Indonesia is supposedly an innocent-until-proven-guilty country, yet the only thing they had was that drugs were found in a bag that was owned by Schapelle. If Indonesia is so serious about stopping drugs why didn't they do anything to determine where the drugs were from? The entire case is a joke!

Because it has no effect on our policies against drug users and pushers. She was caught with drugs and has to pay the penaty.

I am getting a bit confused. John Howard married the devils wife to keep relations with Indonesia tip top.

Is this correct?

Oh boy, I have no idea...

Why is it insane to ask: 1) Why was the bag not fingerprinted and the mj not DNA tested when there was an official request to do so made by the Corby family? 2) Why did all the video footage of Schapelle checking in her luggage in Brisbane suddenly disappear? 3) Why did all the media which had been supportive of Schapelle suddenly do a 180 and start printing innuendo that the family was involved in drug smuggling and then not print corrections when 100% of the accusations prooved untrue (see the police reports). 4) Why is the fact that her unlocked bag was out of her control for 12 hours and handled by who knows how many people not considered reasonable doubt. Especially when Schapelle had no prior involvement with drugs. Now how is it that I am the one considered not sane here?

Are you serious ? Schapelle requested the luggage of all four passengers to be weighed together ,as her boogie board was not weighed individually by Qantas. She had a collective weight only on her ticket . DENIED. even though all the other baggage was still together and intact. Sh quested the police to stop handling the bag containing the marijuana to preserve evidence DENIED. She requested the bag be finger printed. DENIED She requested the marijuana be DNA tested. DENIED She requested the cctv footage from Denpasar airport. DENIED Why would the Bali police refuse ? Surely any of these would strengthen their case against her. The Bali police had their patsy and they were not going to collect evidence that would prove otherwise. Can you please tell me why Schapelle would request the AFP get cctv surveilence footage from the Qantas check in at Brisbane airport ? If one frame showed a pregnant boogie board bag ,it would have been positive proof of her guilt. How was she to know that every cctv was switched off ? Guilty people do not request evidence that could get them executed. To Mr Jansen Do you really think the Australian Government would not sacrifice one person to preserve relations with Indonesia? If the marijuana was planted in Bali every piece of the puzzle fits. Not even your most hardened traveller would visit a country with the death penalty ,that plants drugs on its tourists. Why was there no investigation from our police to find out where the marijuana was grown ? Why wouldn't they at least search Schapelle's car or home ? Why weren't her family and friends interviewed ? Surely the police would want to arrest the culprits that so sullied our good name. This put Australia in league with other drug yielding countries like Thailand and Columbia. Answer the AFP knew the truth. Keelty said it himself when queried why the AFP had not investigated. "WE ARE NOT IN THE BUSINESS OF CLEARING PEOPLE" All this is documented on the net. If anyone wants to do the research.

Why on earth would there be a conspiracy to keep Corby in jail? What possible advantage could the Australian Government and media gain from it?

You lot are like the tinfoil hat wearing UFO brigade. Next you will be telling us that 9/11 is involved in all this...

Yours in sanity,

Mr Jansen

Just a man who wants the truth.

And it seems to me obvious that the truth is she was smuggling drugs for her own gain and/or personal use. The law is very clear about that. Now you might quibble about the severity of the sentence, but when it comes to the process of the law there is no doubt. It was a transparent process. And the guilty have to be punished.

Can we have the Man'o'Steel John Howard for a few years?
