I wonder, is it different if your dad is a policeman?

Ms Bishop has done a good job here. I wonder why the parents of other drug traffickers, who said it wasn't their drugs, didn't get the same help?

Egypt would look at Australia and go Who the F are you ???

Probably one of the few countries we have little in common with.

They are a good US friend, hence the comment by the secretary of state on the sentane. that is high level support.

She was arrested over a month ago, it took them a long time to suddenly release her without charge, I smell a rat.

According to her friends, Davis is brash and hot-headed. They said that her life had an abrupt change in a very short period of time. Davis, who has her home in Penrith, is the daughter of a former NSW police officer. She did not inform anyone when she travelled in November.

However, she told her friends that they should consider something must have gone wrong if they did not hear from her. Things did go wrong for Davis who was intercepted by Chinese authorities at the airport. According to the authorities, Gardiner was recruited by an organised crime syndicate in Sydney. Daily Telegraph reported that the drug, which the pair had tried to smuggle had a street value of around $80 million.

ABC News earlier reported that the pair was not likely to appear in China court at least for a few months. The prospects of the Davis and Gardiner getting away with what they did was "very slim," if similar cases in recent times were taken into consideration. A Chinese customs officer said that there was a possibility that some other people had also been involved in the smuggling.

Bull shyte

To us and the media it is a "sudden release without charge".

To them and the Australian Gov't, not so, they would have been told what was going on and what was likely to occur.

As soon as released, I doubt they wasted time getting her out of Asia
before someone changed their mind.

where did you get that information from?

[cherry*135]

The Aust Govt reps have been liasing/negotating her release for several weeks... which was granted.

There is something strange about her though.. parents reporting her missing a few days before she went to China, travelling overseas with someone she only just met via internet.. seems more to it than just being an impulsive person.

And, the point of that link was ????

apart from showing the media blow it out of all proportion. she was not facing a death sentance, she hadn't even been effing charged for god sake.

[cherry*135]

She was detained on suspicion of drug smuggling.

From the opening post: I wonder, is it different if your dad is a policeman?

Her father is an ANZ banker and former police officer. 

How long ago was he a police officer?  Why is that seen as gaining extra privleges, when he isn't even currently a police officer?

Just like you appear to get a kick out of being aggressive with your replies the point of the link was to show where the information I posted came from.

[aps1080]

I just think the media reporting is **bleep**

They aren't journos any more, they are regurgitators who sensationalise things. Daily mail being a good example.
