i just have a few things to say. the marijuana was never tested for country origin, the bags were never finger printed, schapelle tested negative for all drugs on the spot of arrest, she was and is still being bullied by a system that is dubious. innocent people dont ask for investigations like finger printing and tests on evidence and polygraphs, innocent people do their time, watch the video and look at the other prisoners compared to schapelle, her eyes alone tell the story, complete horror. if u watch the ganja queen documentary u can see the judges almost falling asleep at times and they dont take any consideration into the mania that took place at the airport, baggage handlers arrested for smuggling the same day...she never had a chance...they would've prolly let her go on a payment to he judge underneath the counter if ron bakir didnt run his mouth...i feel so badly for schapelle. i can see in her eyes she innocent.

I read the comments of Mrs. Navi Pillay or Amnesty International and I was disgusted of the hypocrisies: why these people are so worried about the human right of Mr. Laden and so ready to defend him, who is a very dangerous mass murder? I Think is absurd to pretend to apply to war actions performed by military the same rules of law enforcement operations performed by police officers, but this is not the point. I ask myself why, when the human right of common people, like Schapelle, who have not so much audience like OBL, are clearly violated, these very high paid human right bureaucrats are completely silent? Why not for these people to gain their many-hundred-thousand-dollars-range salaries defending the right of weak and defenseless common people like, for example, Schapelle?

Julia Gillard made a promise to help Schapelle as part of her election campaign to become Prime Minister, she has not lived up to that promise.
She has shown; however, that she will do anything to hold onto her tender grip on power. The Greens Party & Independants in Australia are vital to her holding power.
Given the Greens history of compassion for minority groups, it may be worth applying pressure through them to get Julia to live up to her promise.

Aussie Gold is a metropolitan legend. I ask a friend, a colonel of Italian Carabinieri with more than 15 years of investigative expirience in international narcotrafic, who confirmed that there isn't any kind of MJ called "Aussie Gold" in the drugs database of Interpol.

I experimented personally the bias of the Australian media toward Schapelle, when I tried unsuccesfully to post my opinions on the comment section of Australians news. I wrote my opinions politely, explaining logically the meaningless of the alleged drug smuggling operation (buying in Australia MJ at 10000 A$/Kg to sell in Bali at less than 3000 A$/Kg), but my post was never printed. The only comments printed on the site was all against Schapelle: some of them was not so polite like mine and none of them gives a founded reason to import cannabis in Bali. The more logical of them say something like "She is guilty because she was trialed and was found guilty", ignoring that, according with the logic of his statement, even Jesus was guilty because he was trialed and found guilty. I suspect the webmaster of the site don't want an open discussion over the issue, he/she prints only defamatory comments to show that Aussies not support Schapelle.

The Bali police control the drug trade in Bali, don't believe for a second that there are Australians running around Kuta selling "Aussie Gold" at exorbitant prices to expats that live in Bali. There has never been before and certainly not after Schapelle's arrest an instance were Australian marijuana in a commercial quantity has been found.

If an the Afghan authorities detained an Australian tourist tomorrow for trying to import opium it would be seen for what it was, a thinly veiled attack on one of our own to punish Australia for it's involvement in the war in Afghanistan.
Because Indonesia has to be seen as a vibrant democracy, Australian politicians sacrificed Schapelle so our already shaky relationship could be preserved.
Howard and Downer were trying to bully Indonesia into jailing Abu Bashir for an extended period over his involvement in the Bali bombing. Howard was also making threats as the "sheriff of the Asian pacific region" that he would attack terrorism even on foreign soil.

The Indonesians were saying loud and clear "STAY OUT OF OUR BUSINESS"
Almost from the day of Schapelle's arrest Howard's and Downer's rhetoric stopped.

There is a stack of evidence to prove that the Indonesians are to blame and the Australian government were and are complicit to this day.

This is not news to anyone here but it can be proved from just watching Ganja Queen that the customs officer Winata is a lier.
He states the marijuana was very different when shown in the court from how the marijuana looked when he first challenged Schapelle.
He says the marijuana was compressed and fashioned to look like a boogie board.
The marijuana wasn't compressed, the footage from the airport clearly shows the bag of marijuana being pulled from the boogie board bag and there are clumps of majijuana heads evident.
If the marijuana had been vaccuum sealed it would not of have bounced back to the bulbous pillow like shape and if it had been compressed and fashioned to look like a boogie board it would have stayed compessed like a brick for eternity.
It was Winata's testimony that convicted Schapelle.
The prosecution needed a second piece of evidence to convict her. Just the marijuana in her bag was not enough.

They couldn't weigh the bags at the airport as requested by Schapelle, there would of been a 4.2 kilo discrepancy.
They couldn't fingerprint the inner and outer bag containing the marijuana as they knew her prints were not on them.
They couldn't DNA test the marijuana to prove it came from Australia because it didn't.
They couldn't use the CCTV footage from above the customs counter to verify Winata's version of events because it would have shown Schapelle voluntarily opening her bag.
They didn't even bother to search or interview her travelling companions because they knew it was a waste of time.

NO it was left to a customs officer who cannot speak english to testify that Schapelle admitted to him in english that the marijuana is mine.

He wasn't allowed to be cross examined or his english proficiency tested. Under Indonesian law, an officer of the court, be it policeman or customs officer can not be cross examined as this is seen to be bring them into disrepute
and
THE AUSTRALIAN MEDIA REPORTED THAT SHE GOT A FAIR TRIAL!
