    Sad thing is these guys were told for better part of 10 years that if they rehabilitate they would be set free but with Indonesias new government that is now not the case...

    Yeah they fudged up but in that 10 years became model inmates and helped more people in a humanistic manner than what most on this board ever could/would...

    Is sad that in some parts of the world you are still simply the sum of the worse thing you've ever done..

    I think death penalty is to much for a drug smuggling crime, 20 year sentence is enough. The people that use drugs where always going to find a way to get there supply and get high.
