Need I say more about acting poor, esp during this period when the nego is still on. This applies to visitors and how they dress when they show up etc.
Originally posted by speakoutfor:I believe the lawyer would advice you guys to somehow push the blame to the boyfriend or share the blame with him. Chances are if able to share the blame for drug possession then the punishment may be able to evenly spread out between your god sis and the boyfriend - ie lighter sentence. Hope your god sis have not made any clumsy confessions during police interogations. Before she say anything to the police - better consult lawyer or else she say somehting dumb - she cannot recant her statement.
Die die your sis also must come out with 80k. But make sure it is right channel and money not go to conman. Or else your efforts would have been in vain.
But she signed the confession and charge papers when she was arrested 3 months ago.Think too late liao.She signed it after intensive grilling.The officer read to her the charges and she signed it cos she was very sleepy after 2 nights of not sleeping.
you see
You can get thru other channels...
It's clear unless there's no proper documentation that the guy is involved at that time.
If there's selectively documentation on things, then I say it's obviously something is wrong

But Yanling signed everything liao.Dun think can change anything at this stage....Next step is a quick trial within 2 months or original trial in Sep.

Depends la. She can tell her lawyer that she was forced to confess under duress and torture by her prison guards. So recant statement is only hope.
About the 80k issue - it is always negotiable. Normally the corrupted officials would place a ridiculous high price. It is stressful but you need to be tough negotiator.
I recall watching the movie "Proof of Life" about Russell Crowe who is a hostage negotiator help to negotiate Meg Ryan's husband who was kidnapped by FARC rebels in a fictatious south american country. At first the rebels ask for $3 million then Russell Crowe negotiate for months - finally got the price down to $600k.
Okay,will try to help her out once I am there but if still kena original sentence,then I LLST.
IF THEY PLACED $$$$$ THEN MEANS ITS NEGOTIABLE.DONT GIVE UP HOPE.GET 50 OF HER RELATIVES TO HELP HER OUT .
I AM NOT A DRUG USER BUT I THINK 8GMS OF DRUGS FOR 10 YEARS IS TOO MUCH...ITS $$$$ THEY NEED REALLY.GET GIRLS 50 RELATIVES N HELP HER OR 50 FRENDS .IT WILL HELP HER OUT AND SHE WOULD BE FREE LIKE HER PLAYBOY FREND.
MAKE SURE ITS DONE THRU the english speaking policeman there or negotiator...lawyer might not be good as undertable thing...main thing is it be kept secret on negotiations they wanted,....DONT ASK HER TO SIT SILENTLY FOR 10 YEARS .

Yeah,true...Unker Ice.Like paying ransom.
So as she is staying temporarily in jail,must buy her a bit of stuff to tide her over first.
Originally posted by RenesisTurbo:Okay,will try....Until then,Yanling stays in jail.
see above....dun get lawyer as everything is supposed to be hushed n secret.
Okay,the money is one thing but the more immediate thing is to make sure she is well treated and well in jail

If no lawyer then how to negotiate? She could easily get conned by people pretending to be able to help. Some more she dunno local Indon dialect and don't know contact people. Lawyers know the loopholes and are masters in negotiation.
So what if I go next week and Yanling tell me she agreed to a quick trial?
So what if I go next week and Yanling tell me she agreed to their offer to a quick trial?
Law is in reality, you want to enforce, you've to impose on all...
Else if it's one sided, the other party would also has to be let off...
Take a look at the recent local case.
watever the case, dun take matters into own hands.. get someone to help
Okay,thanks for the advice...Will see what I can do when I go over next Wed.What can I buy to let Yanling use in jail?
Cheap stuff!
It's very common for ransoms to be a fraction of the initial demand. But to do so, you must show difficulty in paying. Pay promptly and you will have the sum increased, or captivity prolonged. Don't show you are rich.
Hope your local lawyer can be trusted. It's always locals who convey bribes eg in Msia you don't pay the driving tester directly, you pay the the driving instructor and magically you pass your test.
About paying the right person, you will need to schedule payments such that both sides have motivation to continue. Eg pay x% after the first hearing, x% after the 2nd hearing, x% after release etc. Of course if you take the quick trial, you are saying you are not paying and game over. Taking the slow trial gives you time to offer and adapt.
Good luck!

Game over means can be 10-13 years or even life imprisonment for Yanling?She actually wants to get it and over with cos she is tired of sitting in there for the last 3 months.Sekali,she has already signed the agreement to a quick trial and we cannot do anything liao.
You mean the quick trial is a trap or a ploy to just suka suka sentence you and just forget about it?Okay...Will buy cheap foodstuff,clothes or tolietries over there when I reach.
Originally posted by lce:u think they r cheap?
no, but i think they have human sense, $20k is better than $0.
The parents of Yanling live in a 2 room flat and if they sell the flat,where would they stay and who would pay a new flat for them?
When I visited them a few days ago to talk to them about Yanling,they told me they did not have such a dotter and she can rot in jail for all they care.I was like WTH?
Right now,I can only visit and buy necessities for her to use.

No, courts work like this.
We wanna charge you for 10 years but due to uncertainty you can get anywhere betwen 5 and 10. So if we propose you 7 and you agree, some of both sides' risk is removed and lawyer fees are saved.
In drugs cases the trial is straight forward, you can easily get the max penalty for possession.
Here the quick option is simply there for signalling you are not interested in negotiating a payment. They have no motive to treat you leniently otherwise it will affect their bargaining position in other people's cases.
