Yes, there are many people who are guilty who say they are innocent. That does not mean that someone who says she is innocent must therefore be guilty.
As another poster noted, this is the same nation that hands out slap on the wrist sentences to those with guilty knowledge of the Bali bombing, an event that ruined a lot more lives than 9 pounds of marijuana ever could.
When Indonesia gets 1/10th as tough on Muslim extremists as they do on alleged pot smugglers, then I'll start believing in the integrity of their criminal justice system.
I do think the best lesson from this is if you're an Aussie, never go to Bali. Who knows whether the stuff was planted, so why take the risk of someone planting something on you?
Well maybe Muslim countries just like to kill Christans. I would not go there if I was an Aussie smuggling drugs. The Government says that they have proven her guilty and the punishment is life not the usually firing line. Sounds like Christan Aussie should stay out of this area if they are planting drugs on them for the excuse to throw them in jail for life.
I don't agree with the punishment, but don't bring 9 pounds of drugs into someones community and then tell them you don't like their laws.
