"When I flew to Bali on 8 October 2004, I imagined my biggest problem was going to be deciding which sarong to wear with which bikini" - Schapelle Corby.
Schapelle Leigh Corby, a 27 year old Australian was traveling to Bali Indonesia to celebrate her sister's birthday. But her dream holiday ended up a waking nightmare when on October 8, 2004, Schapelle was arrested in the Denpassar airport after 4.2 kilograms of marijuana was found in her boogie-board bag.
Though completely innocent, Schapelle was forced to face the consequences of someone else's crime. Her fate would be decided on May 27 2005 in the Denpassar District Court.

Schapelle Corby is a kind and compassionate young woman, a loving sister, a loyal friend and faithful daughter. She does not deserve what's happened to her but will keep fighting against insurmountable odds until freedom is hers!
'I long to be free and live again outside these walls I will never understand why this happened to me. Why my bag Right now I'm empty, lost and numb... It's been so long since I've felt peaceful and happy. So long since I've smiled and laughed on the inside and out I sound like a broken record but I will keep saying it: I'm innocent, I'm innocent, I'm innocent.' - Quotes from Schapelle's book 'My Story'.
