Corby myths busted
In the U.S.A. the movie Ganja Queen has showed an outpouring of emotion directed towards Schapelle Corby who languishes in a cramped jail cell with other women in Bali.
It is no holiday camp even thought the Fairfax and Murdoch would have us believe otherwise. Over the last few years, supporters have come to realise that her jailing had nothing to do with justice but keeping face.
The three judges at her trial had never let off anyone charged with a drug offence.
They burned the hard evidence before it could be tested for point of origin.
They refused her requests (written and supported by the Australian Consuls office documents) to have the marijuana tested.
They refused to have the bag fingerprinted to look for Corby's prints.
They refused to weigh the bag to compare with the weight in Brisbane.
They in this case refer to the Bali police and the prosecution.
The questions remain.
Did she get a fair trial?
Did she really do it?
How do you justify 20 years, when in Australia it would have meant a slap on the wrist in some states?
This new video which uses approved copyright material from Ganja Queen looks at the possibilities.
