Due to technical errors, 2 of 9 Australians who were caught trying smuggle 18 pounds of heroin into Bali, Indonesia have been given more time from death row and to spend it with their families. The 2 men were considered the ringleaders of the group, hence given a larger conviction than the other 7, who each were given 20 years to life.
I honestly do not think executing 2 people in the drug world is gonna help the war on drugs in any way, shape, or form. The world has been fighting the war on drugs for way to many years, to no avail. The more security against drugs there is, the more underground drug activity there will be, which is the opposite of what we want. We need to find a better way to deal with drugs than the way we are, because the way we are is not helping at all.
