I'm not going to Mexico anytime soon...

Today Mexico announced that Canadian Brenda Martin has been found guilty by a Mexican judge of accepting funds from an Internet scam and sentenced to five years in prison.

I wrote about this horrific story a while back and today the result was basically worst case.

Full story is here

and here.

The only potential positive I can see is that there is a chance the Canadian government can accept her in a prisoner transfer and then immediately release her on time served (as she has been in jail for two years without being convicted of anything).

Brutal treatment of a Canadian citizen by a "friendly" country.
