I feel so sorry for her she could be any ones daughter, dont think it wont happen, you are lucky if you know a third of what your children do.
Guilty or innocent 9 years in a hell hole, mainly because they did not have enough money to bribe a few people, which is a well known practice over there.
I hope she can go on and put it behind her, but I dont think that place will ever leave her dreams.
I also cant understand how some people have No humanity for there fellow man and are so quick to cut others down and act holier them thou.
People who say they are Christians yet forget about forgiveness

I hope they breach her parole and make her do the time, just like other drug runners have to do. Then, maybe, she'll fall off he radar again.

approximately 2 Australians a day are arrested overseas
http://www.smh.com.au/national/two-australians-a-day-arrested-abroad-20120107-1pp7s.html
AT LEAST two Australians a day are arrested for crimes somewhere in the world, double the number who were getting into trouble overseas a decade ago.
Figures from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade also reveal that the number of Australians in foreign prisons
reached record levels in 2010-2011, with 313 in jail.
In the same period, 1069 Australians were arrested for offences ranging from attempted murder and assault to kidnapping, theft and tax evasion. In comparison, 568 Australians were arrested in 2001, while 208 were imprisoned.

Deane Jones has been released while Halliwell still wallows in Gaol and most would not even recognize their names
http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/07/04/1057179158262.html
The Bangkok Southern Criminal Court found Deane-Johns, 32, and her co-accused, Robert Halliwell, 57, guilty of possessing a total of 104 grams of heroin.
The pair, both addicts with a history of drug offences, were arrested in August 2000 after Deane-Johns tried to post a parcel of heroin back to Australia. Further quantities of drugs were later found hidden in each of their Bangkok residences.
But the court set aside prosecution arguments that they had conspired to traffic heroin to Australia. Under Thai law, traffickers found with more than 100 grams of heroin face a penalty of death by lethal injection.
In late August 2000, Halliwell drove Deane-Johns to Bangkok Central Post Office, where she posted a parcel later found to contain about 11 grams of heroin.
The pair were arrested a short time later by Thai narcotics agents who had been monitoring their movements for two months after receiving information from Australian Federal Police

If you want to feel sorry for somebody....feel sorry for this young lady who has yet to be charged
...... She must not appear so newsworthy as to attract "Schappelle style attention".......
http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/2013/12/13/murri-woman-arrested-and-jailed-bolivia
While Australia's media and public have been poring over every detail of Schapelle Corby's time in Bali, another Queensland woman has been sitting in a deadly foreign prison largely unnoticed.
Brisbane 24-year-old Alana Miles has been held in Bolivia’s Palmasola prison for the past 11 months under suspicion of drug trafficking.
The prison was the site of a riot in August last year that left 31 people dead.
The former university student and childcare worker was allegedly intercepted leaving Bolivia for Malaysia carrying two kilos of cocaine concealed in a backpack on March 18, 2013.

Considered a flight risk, she has been held without charge ever since.
Alana's family said if she was charged and found guilty she could face a 25-year jail sentence.
Her sister Kylie Miles said Alana was naïve and had been set up by a friend she studied with online.
She said Alana had a sheltered adolescence in and out of hospital fighting Leukaemia, as well as suffering from diabetes.
“My sister would not even know what cocaine looked like except for in the movies,” Kylie said.

I feel for anyone that does time in one of their prisons... they are disgusting and third world. I think that 12 months is enough for the crime she did.
But that is the only thing she did that makes me feel sorry for her...
