DENPASAR - Australian drug smuggler Schappelle Corby is going crazy in Balinese prison where she has to fulfill a 20-year jail term after trying to smuggle several kilograms of marijuana from Bali to Australia. In a psychiatric report she is said to be 'hanging by a thread', and should be reviewed as soon as possible for being sent home to Australia to finish her sentence there. An Australian psychiatrist was allowed to visit Corby last month.
“She is lost in her own bewildering world where fantasy, hallucinations and bizarre ideas dominate her mind,” Phillips said. Unfortunately for her, one of the most grave offences you can do in this country is anything related to drugs. Even murdering is often punished more lightly than smuggling of drugs, whatever the type of drugs.
Until now Indonesia has maintained that she has to stay in the Kerobokan prison on the resort island of Bali. Earlier she already gained the privilege to go to a salon outside the prison and now she should be sent home? That would not be a proper punishment for a foreigner wanting to smuggle over four kilograms of drugs, even not when it was from Indonesia to another country. Grow up, if you can smuggle drugs, you should also bear the consequences!

Nothing new...... this happens not only with prisoners in Kerobokan but also with the expats who are living outside the prison in the surroundings of Kerobokan. However, there are no psychiatric reports about them.

Recently I have been reading an article from a British journalist Alan Shadrake.
He did reports in the past on Schappelle.

I think we can see a new report soon. I hear this journalist is in Bali at the moment to continue the story.

Yes.....but is she a drug smuggler?? You'll never know in this country where you can find the biggest drugsdealers among the "apparatus": police or army (with the army the worst). I know that to cover their own business they sometimes sacrifice others. That is already a common secret for more then 10 years.
