She should have been transported to a us prison, but she deserved to serve time. She smuggled heroin, she knew what she was doing before she got to Bangladesh.

I agree with most of you that this chick was a moron and a cry baby. However, in a free society, I don't feel that drugs should be illegal to buy, sell, or use. People should be free to put whatever they want into their body, as long as they don't harm anyone else. Having said that, I must also say that anyone who is f*cking stupid enough to use heroin gets no sympathy from me. Most people blame the drug smuggler or dealer for the misery that drugs cause the user. I don't. I blame the drug user, 100%. It's all about PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY, people.Do you hear me Mark Lagace? You're an idiot. You've been clean for one year? Wow!! I've been clean my entire life. I'm the responsible smart one, you're the irresponsible stupid one. People should applaud me instead of you, and yet you want us to praise you? Go f**k yourself.The problem with drugs is not a supply problem, it's a DEMAND problem. The only reason people go to these enormous lengths to smuggle, buy, and sell drugs (other than the high prices & huge profits caused by an illegal black market), is because there's no shortage of idiots who want to use them. If there is a demand for a product, there will always be people willing to supply that product, whether the product is legal or not.

After reading some of the other reviews regarding this episode, I must agree that this woman got what she deserved. I furthermore agree that her being pardoned was an absolute miscarriage of justice. I can not support the use of American taxpayers money being used to free a person who willingly, and knowingly broke the law. I don't believe that this sets a good example for others who might try to make money doing the same thing. I myself am a recovering heroine addict. I all so did what I had to do to make money in support of a horrible addiction. Heroin addiction, to me, is a pure living hell. it consumed my every waking moment. I all so know that if I had been caught in posession of a narcotic, I would have taken my lumps. maybe a life sentence is harsh for a first offense, but if thats the law of the land then so be it. I have spent time in prison. I am not proud of this fact. I know that I did learn from my mistakes. I have been clean now for close to a year. I thank God everyday for that. I know that I could be back on the other side in an instant. I really hope this woman appreciates the second chance she was given. I all so don't know why she is portrayed as a lingerie model. There is no mention of that at all during the video, and I thought they made pretty good money.
