Don't do the crime if you can't do the time. This stupid brat must have been aware of a very high profile Indonesian case in which two young men about her age were BEHEADED for smuggling drugs into Indonesia, despite the best efforts of the government to halt their execution. Unlike Western countries, these foreigners take their laws seriously and most of us who travel have been warned repeatedly that no matter where we come from, when we are in a foreign land we are under the laws of that land. Being a cute 20 year old surfer girl butters no parsnips when it comes to smuggling drugs.
And just what else would you expect the poor brat to say except "I was set up"? Perhaps she is not having fun in jail. But then again, perhaps the next girl who thinks she'll make a quick buck by smuggling drugs into Indonesia might take a few minutes to weigh the risk.

You are pathetic - To suggest this is at all reasonable is foolishness - People with your mindset have some ugly days coming in your life - simple as that -

When I was in the USN in the 70's, we left one of our guys behind in an Italian prison for drugs. He was still there my next cruise.

What a contrast to our country, where millions enter illegally, bringing in hundreds of thousands of pounds of drugs annually, and then they get benefits and pandered too.
