Schapelle Corby not interested in prisoner exchange
August 24th, 2006
Australian beauty therapist, Schapelle Corby is not interested in a prisoner exchange deal, according to her lawyer. Schapelle was convicted of importing 4.1kg of marijuana into Bali in October 2004, but maintains it wasn’t hers.
There are a couple of reasons she cannot and will not return to Australia. Even if prisoner exchange were possible at the moment, Corby has not finished her appeal, with one more attempt taking place at Denpasar District Court tommorrow. Assuming that fails, the thought of spending the best part of 20 years in an Aussie jail is not attractive. Kerobokan jail may not be a place many of us would want to call home, but you can get trips to the beach / shops / nightout, and a Solution could always be on the cards.
Fingers crossed for Schapelle at the District Court, this is her last big chance.
