she won't die, there will be an appeal from the UK and she will be jailed... a complete waste of time.
there will be pics of wailing grandchildren, a sick family member making an appeal and they will be concerned for her mental health and blah, blah, blah...

Shame we dont have the same tough laws in this country. It may slow down the skurge of druggies in this country.
She made her bed she needs to lay in it. She wont die there though. She will be in a lovely warm cell in London soon.

anyone should know better...however...I still sit and think of the corruption of many of these types of countries...there are those in power that have done so much more wrongs, and will never be accountable for the horrific things they have done)or paid to have done).
Then there is the spectacle of how they execute
The people around the world that sit at the top of the social spectrum arent that much different when it comes to crime(drugs,prostitution,slavery,violations of human rights)..they just get away with it.

Trying to smuggle 4.8kg of Charlie into an ISLAMIC nation.
Come on is this women living in another world.
You cannot expect to take drugs of any kind including alcohol into an Islamic country and not expect to at least lose your head.
Yea watch out for the bleating hearts brigade and an appeal from William Hague/Tony Blair on her behalf.
She committed a serious crime in ANY country that holds a long period behind bars, but Sharia Law states the death sentence for a crime like this.
She will be shot

Difficult to comment objectively. If she is a willing drug mule then she deserves fair trial and judgement per the laws of the foreign land.
But IF IF IF IF she genuinely had mental health problems and genuinely believed her familY'S lives were genuinely at risk, then who are we to condemn how any mother would react.
The love a mother has for her child is a strong one and perhaps was easily manipulated by those who targeted her.
Until you or I are faced with a no-win situation, we cannot predict how we would react.
I'm having a pop at anyone here - just offering my tuppence worth

She was not tried under Sharia Law so that means nothing here. Also the prosecutuion only asked for a 15 year sentence but the judges decided on the death penalty. No doubt this will be appealed and a reduced sentence applied. |

Just to clarify, Bali is NOT a Muslim country.
Whilst Indonesia is a predominantly Muslim country, Bali is almost 96% Hindi.
As for its legal system, The Indonesian legal system was introduced by the colonisers of Indonesia, the Dutch, and the Dutch in turn derived their system from the French, and it's a fairly classical, maybe a little archaic, French-Dutch system. |

i can think of plenty who should be executed but are living in relative comfort at our expense. i think this woman knew fine well what she was doing,but weighed up the risks and gambled.well to my mind she should pay the price. jase |

The top dog drug dealers will know an older lady with grandkids will not get executed and the outrage in this country would not allow it, the government will step in.
So they exploit the emotional story of grandmother on death row |

"I think it's disgusting that anyone would think its ok to shoot someone for any kind of crime.
Eva"
maybe I watch too many films, but this is my understanding:
bag over the head,huckled away...standing in front of a wall...a line up of a few men and shot several times(and possibly not even checked to see if ur dead)
whats wrong with putting someone down like one would an animal ie being put to sleep
vengeance can be an understood concept...I'm afraid cruelty cannot |

As a mother the love for my children is soo strong that I would never choose to commit a crime that could potentially mean that I would face the death penalty and risk never seeing my children again. I'd rather have faced Goliath. Also questions her as a person as to why she is even in cahoots and associates with these gangs. Hmmm. It's her defense. Guilty as charged. Silly woman. The colour of money means more than the love for her children |

The so called " war on drugs " has been a failure. All it does is raise the price and lower the quality. If adults wish to take drugs , let them.
Filling the jails at tax payers expense is not the way.
Why is it no one sugests shooting the alcohol and tabacco barons for the untold misery , which comes from the use of their products.

I don't think they should execute her although she's bound have been aware of the consequences prior to taking the risk,I certainly wouldnt push my luck in a place such as that where the laws are to the extreme |

Heres hoping for a very long painful torturous stretch in a hell hole prison.
I think you can guess that i have zero time for drug smugglers, dealers or users.

She knew what she was doing, we should spend not one dime of our money, thats the trouble these days, you dont get hung for murder, so whats the worst that can happen to you, end up in a cosy cell, with leisure time, three square meals, and if you can be bothered you can come out with a degree!!... I personally would have a shop in every town or city that gave away drugs for free, crime rates would be down and the dealers would cease to exist, and some of the money that would be saved in police, court, prison costs could be spent on the one or two who genuinely want help for drug addiction and there would be a bloddy lot of change left over to be sopent on ......(healthcare, schools etc etc!!
Very quicly there would be a thin out of the down and outs and I BELEIVE there would be a lot of kids who would be strong enough never to want to go in to a shop and ask for it. |

Law enforcement has been tackling this all wrong for decades. Trouble is the police n politicians like to show the spoils - makes them look good if they can parade tons of the white stuff on TV.
But they should be stamping out the financial/insurance/tax/benefit/etc fraud that is funding the illicit drugs industry. But it's hard to "show" such success on Tele.
Until they wake up and smell the coffee, those that make thé "war on drugs" will fail. |

"Maby Scotland should adopt these policies clean up our street since where all so good to judge other countries "
half the population would be hanged for using illegal drugs...or indeed using prescribed drugs not intended for themselves |
