| Schapelle's final plea May 27, 2005 As Schapelle Corby clings to the hope of gaining freedom today, she last night issued a final plea to the people of Australia. "Today is my day . . . please pray for me," she told The Daily Telegraph. "I pray for justice every day. I want to go home." In a personal message delivered through a spokesman, Corby begged Australians not to abandon her in her hour of need. "Don't forget me, I have done nothing wrong. Corby has been in prison 8 months in Indo. No-one seriously believes she is guilty: why would any rational person take drugs worth about $500k in Australia to Bali where they are much cheaper - about $5k or thereabouts. But the dirty Indo's with their Asian pride of saving face will have to find her guilty. Judgement is tomorrow. Schapelle prays but to them she's just another stupid dhimmi, and they don't care if she rots in their jail. NOBODY should holiday in Bali More than 90 per cent of Australians believe she is innocent of smuggling 4.1kg of cannabis into Denpasar. Allegations of a drug-smuggling ring run through Sydney airport, corrupt baggage handlers and overheard prison plots have added to the doubt surrounding the evidence. Her defence lawyer Lily Lubis yesterday voiced fears about what would happen if Corby was convicted and jailed. "She won't survive, she won't survive," she said. But even if she is acquitted, she will still face months of agony, remaining incarcerated for at least six months during a prolonged appeals procedure. Television viewers will be able to watch the verdict live today, with networks Seven and Nine, and Sky News, providing live coverage of the event. |

| #1 The judge in this case is a Christian, and Bali police are mostly Hindu, so I don't know how great a role dhimmitude plays |
