Innocent people don't run.
Sure they do and "We" are not implying anything. It's easy for us to talk about appearances from the comfort of our easy chairs but she is the one facing prison for what was an accident until it suddenly became a crime.

Was she found to have been drinking or did she have a public hatred of the British? Has there been any revelation or change to the circumstances of the case to justify this charge? Because as far as I can tell Bilge Rat is right when he says this is politically motivated.
