In his defense, Hymee was ***** to the wall tired by the time he left the states.
I doubt he could hold up a costume with much of a head that high up.
He could have used a camel to help haul those bags though.

Chezzz, I thought you Aussie's were lighter then that. If ya can't have fun in Australia where you gonna go??
I can see them getting up tight over that sort of thing in the states due to all the PC etc. If that were here someone would be leading a protest for cruelty to Camels, making fun of Camels and more.

Plus the FBI would have you in a room with a bright light over your head and a rubber hose.

Richard, the furore is over Qantas bag chuckers. They are accused of drug running in passengers baggage. There is a beauty therapist from Michael's neck of the woods on trial in Indonesia accused of importing a bag full of weed into Bali. It's generally believed she is an innocent victim of a missed interstate drug shipment by Qantas loaders.

She could face the firing squad if she loses the trial.....

People allways thought that Tourism and Real Estate were the lifeblood of the Goldcoast. :D

HOW WRONG TAKE AWAY THE SPEED , cocaine heroin etc and the local economy would collapse :D

Were theres demand theres allways supply all this media attention has done is force the price to go up , oh well the local drug dealers will be driving Ferraries instead of Porsches .

I'd feel somewhat more comfortable if a thread about "Hymee spying in the US" didn't also turn into something associated with drug smuggling

Cheers,
Hymee.

Lock & Load

Importers and Exporters of car parts such as Hymee come under the radar of the drug squad only last week two lebanese guys from sydney were caught bringing in Hasish and Cocaine in strut bars , and shocks .

Imagine the quantity of drugs that you could smuggle in one of the Hymee exhaust or one of your superchargers :D

cheers

Spying....smuggling, what's the diff? :p
As I understand this people in Oz feel this woman was set up, right?
Is she an Australian?? Being tried in some other country??
And that has the country up in arms and someone helping her defense funding?

Richard Paul

iTrader: (5)

Yes but Hymee could melt the evidence and I could shred it. Strut bars are to passive. They had to be bolted together though and that doesn't make a good product. What am talking about? Stupid! the bars are throw aways. they don't even have to fit anything. There is why I can't seem to make it smuggling drugs. I spend to much time on quality control of the wrong product.

At least at the moment they can't catch us putting anything in a solid SS shifter.
But there is a massive amount of room in those electronic boxes Hymee uses. :D

Well now what are you guys going to do? I watched the trial on the news and that bird got screwed, not in a good way. She is a sweet looking thing also. But they didn't even get the weight of the bag or fingerprint it. Wildcard, can't your buddies arm that thing you drive?
You guys have a Navy, right. Those indians don't even have power for their canoes.
I'm pissed off for you. That was a 'roo court if there is one.
Maybe I have no more tolorance for this stuff as I age. Hell if you had the 9th curcuit court like we have in Ca you can do anything and they will find a reason to let you go. As long as it is left wing.
So get on the stick and declare war or something. Don't be wooses like my government, your the outlaws.

And get your money back that you sent them for the Tsanami disaster.

Gomez

Popular opinion is that she's innocent, her legal team are appealing the sentence. The prosecution are also appealing....against the leniency of the sentence, she only got twenty years. She could still face the firing squad. Her only chance at getting out alive rests on her getting a Presidental pardon. She isn't the type who could serve out a long stretch........

Hymee

Someone TXT'ed me yesterday saying they saw a sign on her Beauty Parlour door that read:

"Back in 20"

She seemed to get a bad deal. I tended to believe she was an unknowing party to the whole thing. I think the problem is that the law she was found guilty of made no allowance for if she knew about them or not. They were in her bag, and she admitted bringing that bag into the country. A country where posession is 10/10's of the law. Ironically, that substance is "freely" available in the prison where she is serving her time.

Cheers,
Hymee.

Gomez

No, no...

That money went to a good cause. People shouldn't paint the country red because a pretty girl is going to do it hard behind bars. Innocent, or not. The Judiciary and the Government should be seen as independant, the Government set the laws....the Judge in this case just followed them.

The devastation in Indonesia killed tens of thousands of innocents, Schapelle Corby is only one innocent (maybe). She still has a chance, the Tsunami victims had no chance. The money we sent will help rebuild devastated communities, we don't want it back.

Revolver

I have closely followed this one. Ignore the populist media coverage and xenophobic crap if you possibly can.

My opinion after sifting out the spin is that the girl is more than likely guilty of the charge laid. I appreciate that is not a popular view but don't let the big blue eyes blind you.

I also have it on good authority that one of her close relatives is far from a cleanskin hard drugs-wise but to say more on this forum would be foolish.

I also agree with Gomez's comments re: the tsunami aid - the poor buggers who copped that are not the ones locking this girl away, whatever your view on her guilt or innocence.

Now flame me at will but you won't change my view.

timbo

I must admit, I am leaning a bit towards the guilty side, based on the boogie board sized package that came our of the boogie board bag. And, contrary to popular belief, high grade hydoponic grass is worth a lot in Bali, especially among the expats there, and to sell back to tourists. So, there is the legally damning combination of circumstance and motive.

I think the furore is more about the fact (a) she is pretty and (b) Indonesia --- surprise, surprise -- has a different legal system to ours (like the rest of the world apart from UK and US), one where the burden of proof in a prima facie case shifts to the defence. Whereas in Australia (and the US) there is the presumption of innocence and the prosecution must prove their case beyond reasonable doubt (ie, about 98+% confidence level). Somehow, it appears that Ms Corby's defence team thought that's what they'd be facing in Bali...ooops!

Anyway, I suspect it will be overturned on appeal. After all, the Indonesians did manage to f@ck up some of the Bali bomber trials....and....like Lindy Chamberlain (for RP's benefit, the lady whose baby was allegedly killed by a dingo at Ayers Rock....we'll never really know

I don't care, she's pretty and you never waste a thing like that in jail.

But they gave some terrorest who killed I don't remember how many people 2.5 years.

A little lopsided on the values scale.
I'm impressed with your feelings about charity towards the tsanomi people. I guess I just snaped out at aything I could, and it's your money. You guys are amazing.
Still, bomb the place would ya.

OK, so I hold grudges.
