Last Thursday, I wrote a post for this blog on celebrating the Fourth of July with my family. Late that evening, while unwinding from the day and preparing for the Fourth of July holiday, I watched a documentary on HBO about Schapelle Corby, "Ganja Queen". Even typing these words, I have an overwhelming feeling of unrest creep up on me.

Corby was a 27-year-old Australian woman who was taking a vacation to Bali to visit her sister for her birthday. She was searched at customs in an Indonesian airport and was found with 4 kg of marijuana in her boogie board bag. The documentary of Corby’s trial, supporters and the controversy surrounding her case was more than moving.
