Someone's daughters.

Financial crime is hardly at the same level as the misery that 6kg of Cocaine will cause.

Death penalty would act as a deterrent. And it is probably kinder that spending a life sentence (which could well be 60+ years) in some Peruvian hell hole.

Misery?? WTF are you talking about?

You'd have a great time with 6kg of cocaine. Trust me.

Like Rover? Certainly the directors should have been made penniless, but there muxt be some sense of proportion.

Businesses come, business go. Unless you are a bank when you claim to be too big to fail and can get endless billions to give in bonuses so the favoured few can shovel it up their noses.

Of course there must be a sense of proportion, but you want to see these two women killed for the misery they would have brought. Why not apply the same punishment to those who bring misery through financial crime?

I see they're not English though, one Scottish and one Northern Irish but with an Irish passport.

Living in Ibiza, going to Peru, caught with drugs, obviously a set-up, not!

Yes, that's your take away order being enjoyed by Peru's finest.

If I was them I would have found a cheap place to live in Peru and battered the whole lot, no matter how long it took me.

6kg? That's at least a weeks worth

They're kids. Kids do stupid stuff.

Do you think someone sat them down and said

"If you do this, you'll get a free holiday in Peru and £8000. If you get caught, you'll get 25 years in a hellish prison."

Or do you think they got the sales pitch

"Sign up to this scheme! QC backed! Money back guarantee!"

Five years would seem right to me.

They're adults, they deserve whatever the country hands out. Lucky for them it's not Thailand.

My IQ is that of a 9 year old. Does that mean I can do as I want?

With a bit of luck 5 years in a Peruvian prison will leave them dead anyway.

Is all this wishing people dead good for your psyche?
