Its both crazy and worrying how volatile these people are, no rational adult has an argument goes get a gun and shoots dead the person only to either commit suicide or spend alot of time in prison.

Tthe guy will hopefully have the next 20+ years sitting in a hole of a cell, with nothing to do except think of his actions.

H will say he was drunk and upset and didnt know what he was doing. Sorry

Yes he was drugged and confused,let him off with 2 years.

Police said that a search of the room showed 'nothing unusual.'

- except for the dead body of course.

RIP good sir - who knows what demons plagued you.

obviusly this was DR Who, he transported to Thailand during his death in London, where he was living at the time of his death.

Was a strange phone booth found outside?

Mental illness, and only here 6 days!

amazes me how they get here , maybe forgot his lythium and prozac after arrival, no- had his bag stolen from his hotel when a date Rpe girl got him then wonderd out to the jungle.

Careful now! Don't upset him by arresting him, he may faint again!

Seems he's running out of options so the dsi will give him a chance to escape the country with his stolen money. The can't give him any more chance can they?

What a joke.

the sad thing is that some people can not grasp the fact that even a Monk can be corrupt.

The premeditated murder charge won't stick, the cops have basically said they won't allow it to stick. A straight up murder charge (like what they have been given - or has that not happened yet?) is likely to have the best chance to keep these fools in remand jail, and locked up for many years after court. The CCTV footage is there, the lawyer witness was there is too law savvy to be bribed off (as well as having already gone on the record about what he saw).

People are saying the killers will get off. Absolutely delusional. They are on toast, the only thing despicable I expect to happen is for the judge to give unduly lenient sentences due to mitigating factors (first time offence, drunk, self defence yada yada yada). They'll still get years, but not as many as they should

Self defence , in danger of being run over by a wheelchair.

Drunk, plausable, bad influence made them drink that day or drug.

Possibility of light sentence, highly provable , due to examples from the past, B2 ect ect ect.

Police work Bang ON here.

Good work

Red cross does not have an age limit

as long as you are healthy to donate.

YET

Thailand exclusion of over 55 year olds excludes myself,

he could have my blood , and i know as a former donor how high

my platelets are,

I am sure Mr C would be happy to have my donation,

more red unnecessary TAPE.

Why can't the Red Cross inconjunction with the Canadian Embassy fly some blood in from Canada or any other comonwealth country???

It would be easy, but to hard because simple things these days are to hard unless you pull a wad out.

Surely the Thai hospitals could organise blood to be flown from overseas, or organise their stupid blood donation rules.

Since they seem to allow masks now, what exactly is the point of the photos?

A very good point, this could be a modified Ronald Mc Donald mask to foil everyone, if the burmese two were allowed masks then no one would know who they were during the re enactment.

Just demonstrates how the Thai police have different rules for different blokes.

Send an ambulance and get it over with. This charade has taken long enough now. Many Thais I know are starting to become irritated by what sometimes seems to be a barrage of monks misbehaving and going against just about everything Buddhism is supposed to stand for.

Dvt only prevents flying, do not the enlightened ones waiting to question him know this???

So who owns the car? Surely they have checked that already using the registration plate.

Surgical equipment ,credit cards, a bit of an abortion.

They don't sound like your average shop bar local expat.

a "fair treatment" in Thailand: a small fine and a suspended sentence....

What we have here is a case of like father like son, so send the kids to an inactive place like an old school building where they can practise shooting each other with paint ball guns.

A few kick boxing lessons also thrown in.

I drive on the highway daily and the minivan drivers are without a doubt the fastest and most reckless of all the idiots on the road.

I have been in them when one idiot side swiped a car then a truck and then was chased by the car he hit and finally stopped.

Another occaision side swiped the back of a truck as he ran out of space overtaking.

I don't ride them now and when I see them coming behind me I get out of their way.

Sad that the government is more interested in attitude ajustment for ciriticism of the charter than Road reforms, these mine vans are aptly nicknamed Kami Kazi suicide vans.

In the 30 plus years that I have been coming to and living in Thailand I have never known it to be this hot for such a long period. I dread to think what my power bill will be this month, my a/c has never worked so hard.

record power bill for me 4700 Bht , but don't forget how cold it was a month or so back, record flooding and snow, cold in europe.

Very cold , actually nice in LOS longer than usual'

When the rain come's maybe we will get record flooding ,who knows?

This has happened before in the 60,s.

Do I believe that it's ell Nino, well that's the name touted for everything wrong with the weather.

I believe its just a cycle that we are going through and it's possibly a cold cycle according to a few books that I have read that say global warming is a money making scam for the carbon credit boys.

Watch the weather reports and make your own mind up,

How is it that Thai women and men can screw around like rabbits, as an accepted part of Thai culture "Pai Ha Gig"

But when the farung "sugar daddy" does it, its the biggest crime of the century and is most always met with violence.

Its always the Farungs fault for making problems for us innocent Thais

Welcome to Amazing Thailand

Dont you know that the root to all evil is farrangs.... without them Thailand would be the best place in the world......

If your going correct people...get it right!!!!..................Farang.

Farang (Thai: ฝรั่ง [faràŋ]) is a generic Thai word for someone of European ancestry, no matter where they may come from. The Royal Institute Dictionary 1999, the official dictionary of Thai words, defines the word as "a person of white race".

The word originate fom arabic , used by ancient traders meaning European or white skinned.

Assault causing injury.... Stabbing someone in the me neck... Why not attempted murder?

Because --- thai dont --- sorry your right.

However the jealousy might be an act of how much she loves him, and did not like seeing another girl flurt with him.

Protecting one's financial future at all costs

Case solved.

Oh but dont worry about the ten other falangs that send money every month or so to her.

Some of the well deserved income may well insure her for a 500 BHT fine.

Jesus - that was absolutely disgusting. What on Earth is wrong with those guys? Kicking a woman in the face when she is on the ground. They are animals.

The Thai police have methods for extracting information.

They could use these methods to get the rest of the thugs ,that obviously many people know the identities of.

The fact that is taking so long to extract this information lays weight on a theory that the other thugs may be part of a gang that has some connections or some of the peanut brains have mummy and daddys that know people.

The Thai Police were brilliant in a matter of days at framing and extracting a re enactment of a murder and a confession. (cynical)

They could easily round up these monkeys, so something is hampering the will to seek out the villains.

Hua Hin is rapidly being invaded by scum , especially on the weekends when thousands flock down to here and Cha Am.

There have been murders and shootings (between Thai gangs) in Cha Am which was a lovely place to go and sit on the beech and eat fresh seafood on the weekends , but not these days.

A sign of the times im afraid

Ah yes the old beating yourself to death with a whiskey bottle way of suicide....

He must have had some hell of a stink the night before when he was beaten with the bottle.

He was on the phone when he left his friend, posible a irl from the night b4 not satisfied about something or her gig was not satisfied.

Where did this happen???

While I believe that many suicides are genuine I also believe tha many are not, if you think that police calling suicides , suicide is a joke then read the book by Roger stone -- the man who killed Killing kennedy, the case against LBJ, and see what the American police called suicides-- just as bad as Thai Police.

Much of the collection of bras and panties belonged to two pretty local sisters who run a beauty shop nearby. They had posted CCTV footage on Facebook recently complaining their undies kept going missing from a line beside their house.

4,000 pairs of knickers stolen and these sisters kept just hanging them out every day. Dumb and dumber.

They could have tied a string attached to a bell and knickers on the line and caught the Ding a Ling

This will become interesting as this time Thai witness from the jet ski (I he survives) against Thai witness "Moo".

A severe case of amnesia from the injured one expected in the mail.

as a 16 year old high school student in Los Angeles in 1971, I had to watch the film "Mechanized Death" as part of my drivers education class.

I never forgot watching that film. Some of the images haunted me for years.

The instructor warned us before hand if we could not stand to watch, just look away. And the girls were told not to watch at all.

watch it if you dare:

Dam right, there should be a national road safety campaign with televised adds showing carnage on the roads.

They do this in NZ they are horrible to watch and I usually change channel after seeing a few, you don't want to watch them, you are also reminded by billboards.

Horrible but effective.

Enjoy the rest of your lives in a Thai prison ladies.

Who's the dude , falaang in the shirt looking on, a undercoved falaang? or friend''

If your stupid enought to buy drugs in LOS you must be prepared for the scumbags that sell it to top you as they owe it to the big brown boss man waiting for a feed.

I have heard stories of rd blocks in remote parts near Chiang Mai ,planting drugs on tourists.

9 gramms each possible buy out here.

They have just opened a Zoo in Hua HIn up the Pala U Rd, turn right past the market when you see the sign saying Car Wash and Bar.

Along the end of that RD.

Anyhow, they have spent millions re-siting huge trees and replicating stone henge and building nice walls.

It is in the early stage and not complete but is open now.

I could not believe what I saw --- apes in small cages hovering from side to side and looking totally stressed out like they are insane .

Tigers going mental in small sages.

Lots of Deer but many look amancipated.

From the cages that they are building at present it does not look like it is going to get better, however the Stone Henge replica and the giant trees look great.

I thought it was a hell hole for animals and needs to be visited by animal rights groups and given a kicking and some lessons on how to house animals.

They have plenty of land and potential but seems they are only intersted in building monuments.

Anybody the remotest theory what might have been the purported reason...? Sort of "I was feeling like it" or "there are too many people on Earth anyway" or "he looked cuter than I"...? Well, since "arrests are expected quickly", we will hopefully soon know, if in fact there is anything to know... it s a darn violent society

Your dam right ,it is a violent society, and it is sick that lunatics can get hold off guns easy.

As long as there is money to be made from selling these guns to loonies we will never see the powers that be make reform, they are to entrenched in the cycle , very sadly.

Gun reform along with many other reforms , traffic sticking out among the bunch have never been addressed.

It is time to outlaw the ownership off guns and start bringing them in , but that is a dream as much as traffic reform is'

LOS is the wild wild west and getting worse by the day.

A few Wies and he'll be off the hook. Madness

He looks like such a nice respectable chap as the others in brown do so WAI not.

The western and Thai opinion of how to deal with strays is the complete opposite. Thais think the dogs should be allowed to roam around and be free. Even if they are dying painfully, let them die naturally. Most westerners think they should be put down.

I'm not saying which one is right or wrong, but something has to be done about these dogs.

what is needed is an SPCA or the likes of and a council that rounds stray dogs up.

Those tested rabies positive or are completely mangy should be put down immediately.

Those that show attitude that they can be fostered out should be kept for 2 to 4 weeks ,if not adopted then put down as is the case in most properly dog controlled countries.

The problem being that the enlightened ones don't want to spend money or inherit bad karma from putting their reincarnated relations down.
