Interesting?
Quoting sources close the family, the ABC also reported it had new information about Corby’s movements before she entered Brisbane airport on October 8, 2004, the day she left Australia for Bali.
She met an Adelaide man, in the pre-dawn darkness, on her way to Brisbane’s international airport that day, causing her to almost miss her 6am flight, the report said.
Very suspicious! I struggle to think of a non-dodgy explanation of why she would have done this, it seems very clandestine … probably something to do with taking delivery of a boogie board bag sized bag of marijuana. My gut feeling from this case is that it was a family enterprise, Schapelle takes the fall if they are caught, with an expectation of getting a more sympathetic hearing in court than her brother/s. That pretty much explains the media circus that has been run in her defence, rather than anything resembling a legally based defence with any actual evidence.

I think you’re right. She was the less obvious mule, and something got farked up during the move.

I can’t really remember the details clearly but there was something on the news a while back about a guy getting busted in Adelaide and somehow being linked to Schapelle or her family. I think the police found a photo of him with her. Maybe this is the guy she met on her way to the airport.

They clearly didn’t think too hard about it however. Her brother was 17 at the time and therefore a minor under Indonesian Law and would have sentenced to less time. Then again they don’t strike me as the brightest bunch of bogans.

She met a man before a trip away?
I can think of plenty non-illegal reasons….

Jo - the Adelaide guy was the one that some photos of her with him turned up. He was connected with the drugs business. Her family said the photos were taken in Kerobakan jail.
Aurelius - yes, but on the way to the airport?
