Donna Nelson from Australia was sentenced to six years in prison for smuggling drugs into Japan, despite claiming she was deceived by an online romance scam. The Chiba District Court found her guilty for carrying 2kg of methamphetamine concealed in her suitcase, with a fine of 1 million yen. Although her testimony was recognized, the judge noted she had a sense that something was wrong. Nelson, who has been in custody for nearly two years, plans to appeal the ruling, which her legal team argues was unjust and influenced by language barriers during customs procedures.
