Usually I am suspicious of claims that the drugs were planted, but her claim along with the fact that there is no evidence of drug use in her past is rather convincing.

It's her claim that the drugs were planted in her luggage in Australia, isn't that right? In that case, one would hope that competent investigators in Australia could find the real criminals, right? If they can't, it makes me doubt her story.

The fact that the artificial compartment
together with the drugs
doubled the normal weight of her bag
makes her claim a bit suspicious.

You don't need to be a drug user to be a drug peddlar.

I also am not sympathetic to drug users who flout the law nor of people who intentionally break foreign government's laws and then whine about what happens to them, I don't know anything about the availability of marijuana in Bali but carrying 9 pounds of marijuana to Indonesia sounds like a case of carrying coals to Newcastle. That 9 pounds of dried weed would also make a sizable package, would she actually think she could get it through customs?

IMO her actual crime was failure to lubricate the right palm(s).
