one under god,
Are you blind. It is not Schapelle that wants the cash. It is her greedy sister Mercedes. She is also the guilty one.
Anyway when Schapelle gets back to Australia she is going to be charged with exporting a proscribed item (marijuana) and get another ten years.
That will really give her something to write about.

chrisgaff1000,

Police will certainly want some questions answered and she would be foolish not to cooperate. That in turn could assist her to receive some favorable treatment.

Hi there folks...

That Mercedes sounds like a real piece of work ? On the other hand I don't believe the girl Schapelle, is all that wise either from what I've heard. The whole Corby family seem to have operated on the periphery of criminality, and none too shrewdly neither. Still, I've not met too many crooks who are over endowed with grey matter in any event.

Corby's entire M.O. with this 'boogie board' thingo doesn't sound like a particularly ingenious scheme to me, I guess that's why she was caught, at the primary line in Bali ?

Thanks again to all those, who were kind enough to contribute to this rather lame topic. I really appreciate it .

Gday o sung wo, back after computer spent some time in repair shop.
In truth weighing up my bias and all, the current secrecy in all aspects involving both police and military forces is at best risky.
We should know just what is taking place always.
And if in time, as it has a habit of doing, some hidden things come to light real problems arise.
Channel 7 bless their little hearts seems well advised in taking the feds to court.

Secrecy should be measured in other ways.
What would the Government say if Labor not the Liberals did this.
Democracy demands openness.

Hi there BELLY ol' friend...

I guess all governments have secrets and I don't have a real problem with it. I suppose in order to gather intelligence one must resort to secrecy and stealth. And by virtue of that, I guess the AFP must possess a fair number of secrets also, particularly for and on behalf of the government.

As they say, it's well above my pay scale, to have to wonder about all of that sort of stuff, eh Belly ?

Nice to chat with you again my friend.

Cheers...Sung Wu.

o sung wu,
I remember when "pay scales" were the best refuge from responsibility.
