For those who think it would be different if I saw how drugs can affect lives,I'd like to add that I have not been untouched by the damage drugs can do to you.... even if it's not me who's taking them (never so much as smoked a cigarette, and loath being drunk:o) Not going into details, but I've dragged them back from the very brink on more than one occasion.... I still don't think anyone should pay for their crime with their life.....

We are all some mothers' son or daughter.

Actshually, I reckon 8 years is long enough.

I think she is guilty and always have. I think the Indonesian government are entitled to set their own penalties. Still if she is released I would not begrudge her, she has been punished and has suffered. I wish she would just admit it though and I hope she will not be allowed to profit from her crime.

The face that is well fed and happy or the face where she's putting on her 'I'm having a psychotic period' impression?

WTF??????

Latest appears to be that her getting parole would rely on the Australian Govt givinb a guarentee that she wont get iN to anymore trouble whilst she is on parole.....

PLEASE EXPLAIN???????

I dont think she or anybody that gets caught for dealing or taking drugs should be allowed to profit from their crime by selling the story - at all, even the teenager that was recently in prison.

Noone should profit from this - even their families although I suspect Shrapnels parents will do just that.

Makes no sense, no government would agree with such a guarantee. Last I heard she was definitely there until 2014.

Second most ****witted thing I have heard today.... How can the australian govt be responsible for an idiot abroads behaviour???? Yup... If the australian govt were to take her back and enforce parole requirements... I can understand that.... Just.... Ifnthey want to take that risk... Personally I wouldnt... But for them to assure her good behaviour is down right bloody stoopid..... Are they implying that the govt was responsible for her crime in the first place in any way???????
