Van Nguyen knew what the potential consequences were for going to Singapore with drugs.

If you smuggle drugs to Asia like heroin to supply junkies you effectively condemn those junkies to one of the most miserable lives that you can ever be lived.

Having said that the death penalty for drugs smuggling is wrong.

Sure if you know you’ll get burnt when you touch a hot stove and yet you still touch it then you’re stupid.

Van Nguyen does not deserve to die for being stupid.
