The Schapelle Corby Nightmare

It was meant to be a Bali holiday: a two-week break to a tropical paradise to celebrate a sister’s birthday. But for Schapelle Corby it ended up a never ending nightmare. Arrested at Denpasar airport in 2004 after marijuana was found in her board bag, she had become the victim of every traveler’s darkest fear. She was forced to face the consequences of a crime in a country where the penalties for drug smuggling are barbaric. Her trial became a major worldwide news story. She was sentenced to 20 years in an Indonesian jail. Her appeals were dismissed and currently she is still in Kerobokan Jail, awaiting a possible early release.
