I dont think its just about the fact he didnt realise what he was doing, realisticly you would have to be in a pretty poor mental state not to understand your doing something wrong.
Obviously if he knew that death was the concequence we will never know.
But more relevent is the fact that these "drug smugglers" arent the problem. They get paid to do a job, or bribed/blackmailed or whatever.
Its not these people who should be faceing the penalties, its the drug lords who make these people do the job.
Agreed, but these mofo drug lords are usually the ones in power or have very strong connections.
I know for a fact about many in China, like some old bitch druglord has strong connections with the police and mayor in her area.
They traffick loads and loads of drugs, and young girls.
Heck she even has like 10 male servants to satisfy her sexual needs (Guys don't get funny thoughts, cos this old lady is like in her 50's)
But it's like that everywhere though, I don't think corruption will ever be stopped but they can't just let people get away with things, or shit will begin to escalate and multiply. The venom will become more potent and hell no, they don't want that to happen.
Some authorities will just do some bust up just before re-elections or shit just to make it seem like they're doing something.
Like close down a few brothels in China, cos they aren't paying the dough to the police to keep it runnin.
WHile other famous ones that the officers from the police regularly go and relax and get high gets more happy customers, cos they payup.
