Schapelle Corby is innocent – part 9 – the abominable silence

Submitted by Gerry Georgatos on Sun, 26/01/2014 - 1:41pm

by Gerry Georgatos - January 25th, 2014 - Schapelle Corby is innocent and the Australian Government has always known this to be the case. I know this not only from the overwhelming evidence compiled by The Expendable Project researchers who have put the verdict beyond reasonable doubt, I know it not only from the fact that no-one smuggles cannabis to Indonesia from Australia, but I know it from the Australian and Indonesian Governments, both who have told me that Schapelle Corby is innocent.
