Coss Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I won't copy the whole page here, just a few excerpts... When Angela Carnegie made the disastrous decision to smuggle heroin from Thailand, she had no idea how much worse her life could get. After being caught at Bangkok airport, she was sentenced to life in a Thai prison in 1993 - where she was forced to eat rotting food teeming with maggots, sleep next to prisoners with leprosy and survive without running water. Carnegie, from Livingston, Texas, was in her twenties and had just broken up with a serious boyfriend. Feeling vulnerable, she decided to take up a friend's offer for some quick cash by bringing a suitcase lined with drugs back to the U.S. and it seems maggots are very nutritious, she's put on a lot of weight between the 1994 and 1996 photos, but appears to have lost a bit by the 2000 photo. 1994: Angela Carnegie after spending one year inside the hellish Bangkok prison where the food was riddled with maggots 1996: Carnegie said some years prisoners were allowed to send photos home to relatives... so tried to put on a brave face 2000: At this stage, Carnegie had served seven years inside the Thai jail for attempting to smuggle heroin Read more: http://www.dailymail...l#ixzz255lFPeyG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redbaron Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 she had no idea how much worse her life could get. Really? She had no idea the penalty could be 20+ years, or life in prison, or death? She really thought a Thai prison would be an easy place to adapt to? I really think she simply thought she wouldn't get caught... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexi Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Amazing how ignorant some people are There was an interview with some Brits imprisoned in a Thai Jail for various offences.They were smiling and seemed quite cheerful so conditions can`t be so bad.As for the food situation,I remember school dinners they cant be as bad as that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbaron Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 .They were smiling and seemed quite cheerful so conditions can`t be so bad. Wouldn't go so far as to say "can't be so bad" but maybe they were making the best of a bad situation, maybe they were putting on a brave face as to not distress even more their families at home. Maybe they were "told" to look good/happy for the cameras... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
