Schapelle Corby: My story (fully revised and updated)
03 March 2020
| Written by: | Kathryn Bonella |
| Review by: | Dee Atkinson |
| Genre: | Non-fiction |
In 2004, Schapelle Corby was arrested in Bali after 4.2 kilograms of marijuana was found in a plastic bag inside her boogie bag case. She professed her innocence.
In 2005 she was sentenced to 20 years by the Denpasar District Court and imprisoned in Kerobokan Prison. In 2012 her sentence was reduced by 5 years after an appeal for clemency was made.
The first edition of My Story was released in 2006. This edition includes details of her mental illness and her return to Australia.
