Sharp as a marble. Some smart killers.

Stuff a body in a suitcase, call a cab with the body in it, but don't show up to take the cab?

Sounds like there's more to it.

And bloodstains on luggage might cause people to think somethin' amiss.....


Trash.

^ Jaysus, mate...Sounds like you were there...Did you carry the suitcase down for them?...(After dropping off a pizza)...

And despite the ^ article, even if she can get some minor special treatment, she still loses her kid in a year or so, and beer and cigs not withstanding, is still behind bars for a lot of years.

I agree with both of their sentences, but the guy got played.

Unfortunately that thing we pee with makes it very easy for some women to manipulate us, especially when we're younger.

Mad ones almost always are.

And also especially when we're older. It's between 35 and 45 that we get a bit sensible.

Even more wild in the bag.

No sexual attraction, here, thanks...That one scares me...Fooking devil child with no appeal...


(Sorry, honey...Sad shape)...

In Hotel K you can get anything you want and even spend nights outside.

For a little rich girl it can be a lot more comfortable than a poor girl.

I'm sure butter wouldn't melt in her mouth, po' thang. Free Heather! (screw the black dude).

Nowhere near Foxy Knock.

Too much evidence against the "Bali Brats."

An American woman convicted of helping her boyfriend to kill her mother and of stuffing her remains into a suitcase was released from a prison in Bali, Indonesia, on Friday.

Heather Mack, who served seven years for the 2014 murder, will now be deported to the United States. However, the daughter she gave birth to while incarcerated will stay in Indonesia.


Mack left Bali's Kerobokan prison early on Friday and was taken to the island's international airport. She declined to talk to reporters gathered at the terminal.


In August 2014, Mack and her boyfriend Tommy Shaefer were arrested after the body of her mother, Chicago socialite Sheila von Wiese-Mack, 62, was found in the trunk of a taxi parked at the St. Regis Bali resort. The body had bruises on the arms and broken fingers.

Mack, who was 18 at the time, and Shaefer, then 21, were found by police the next day at another hotel about 6 miles from the St. Regis resort.

Police said CCTV from the luxury resort showed that the couple had argued with von Wiese-Mack in the lobby just before the murder, which is believed to have taken place inside a hotel room.


Other footage shows Schaefer and Mack speaking to a taxi driver after leaving the suitcase in another car.


In their 2015 trial, Schaefer was sentenced to 18 years for premeditated murder, while Mack received a 10-year sentence.

Robert Bibbs, Shaefer's cousin, was later sentenced to nine years for his role in the crime. In December 2016, Bibbs pleaded guilty in an Illinois court to one count of conspiracy to commit the foreign murder of a U.S. national.


A Department of Justice statement, citing a plea agreement, said Shaefer had informed Bibbs that Mack had offered her boyfriend approximately $50,000 to kill her mother. Shaefer also asked his cousin whether he knew anyone who could kill von Wiese-Mack in exchange for money.


According to the plea agreement, Bibbs advised Shaefer to kill her himself and, via text message, provided suggestions on how he could do it, including drowning or suffocation.


Mack was a few weeks pregnant at the time of the murder and her daughter, Stella Shaefer, was born shortly after the couple were convicted in 2015.


Indonesian law allowed Stella to live with her mother in her prison cell until she turned 2 years old, before Mack gave custody of her young daughter to an Australian foster mother until her release.


Although Mack now has custody of her daughter under Indonesian law, her lawyer Yulius Benyamin Seran said Mack wanted Stella to remain with the foster family so she can avoid the media spotlight.


Lili, the chief warden of Kerobokan prison, who goes by a single name, explained that Mack's sentence had been shortened by 34 months thanks to reductions that are often given to prisoners on major holidays, such as Indonesia Independence Day in August.


The warden added that Mack would be held in a detention room at the airport's immigration office while waiting for a flight back to the United States.


Mack had a difficult and sometimes violent relationship with her mother. Von Wiese-Mack frequently reported that her daughter bit, punched and stole from her, according to police files cited by Radar Online.

^ Good job. I looked all over for this thread.

I just searched her name.

I did also. Duck Duck Go comes up short on searches often.

Heather Mack, not so much.
