As the presiding judge delivered her verdict the two British pensioners stood Holding Hands in the little courtroom in Lisbon's Campus de Justicia.
"Eight years for drug trafficking" The Judge said. Roger Clarke , visibly shaken, lifted his hands to his head and with tears in his eyes he turned to his wife.
Sue Clarke began crying and The Judge said the couple's story, that they had been given empty Suitcases in St Lucia to bring to the UK for a friend, wasn't credible.
She Said their prior conviction for smuggling cannabis to Norway should have made them suspicious of such a request.
"You are not drug users," Judge Margarida Alves said. "You clearly did this because of the High Profits You could Make . "
As he left court Roger Clarke turned to me saying "The Truth needs to Get Out . Come and See Me in prison and I will tell You ".
