I'm kind of amazed they're going to jail her rather than just ship her ass back to the US and have their taxpayers deal with her incarceration.
This whole story smells funny, though. She's obviously trolling in her responses, and it almost feels like she was planning on getting caught. I guess if you're trying to get out of the US after the Trump victory, this is one way way to do so.
Except she will be banned from ever returning to Ausyralia after the remaining 4 months of her incarceration.
Could she extend her sentence by acting up in prison?
Didn't realize she'd be banned forever, though. Regardless, she's either got ulterior motives or she really is just that comically dumb, which is equally likely, heh.
