You are making it sound like Maxwell is doing "hard time", which is anything but the truth. The low-security Federal Correctional Institution in Tallahassee certainly qualifies as a Club Fed for well-behaved inmates. The Zoukis Consultation Group which specializes in prepping people for federal prison life has listed minimal restrictions on phone calls and visitors. Movies, yoga, Pilates, educational classes, and even participation in a "prison talent show" will be available to her. Considering who she works for, she won't be there too much longer. You can bet the ranch (or the kibbutz) on that.

Why should she? Livin' it up at Club Fed, such a lovely place, you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.

"Until she smiles..." That's a graphic example of the "One-drop rule" that was on the law books of many states until 1967 to prevent miscegenation.

For many, it is the comforting sound of Nanny chiming in.

"Sniffies"... that sounds more like what the dog walkers would be dealing with.

How could a person be found guilty of consuming drugs while being acquitted of possessing them prior to consumption? Was she being force-fed?

Getting to look more like Mom all the time... and Harry getting to look more like Dad.

"Congo Fever"... has a new name for an old disease just been coined? Spike Lee, with his "Jungle Fever" should be contemplating litigation.

Spot on. In the US that syndrome could be summed up by the question: "Do turkeys vote for Thanksgiving?"

All the ingredients ready to make a really stinking gumbo. I hope plenty of vids are produced... it will be comedy gold.

That remains to be seen, and will insure continued interest in this case until it is resolved one way or another.

Go for it Gustavo! Let it spread throughout low-life Latin America in the same way that London's 18th century "Gin Craze" culled the proles. "Drunk for a penny - dead drunk for tuppence - clean straw for nothing."

"Sleaze-by-the-Sea" has always been my favorite.

Lock the creep up.

In the eyes of Thai Immigration, we're all bad guys... and gals.

Thanks for that. Funniest post on the thread... and so true.

Who needs to shower? A horse-bath [say it fast] is much sweeter.

Put that, very true, statement in past tense, Mr. JoBlo. There is a new sheriff in town now. Wait and see what he does before shooting off your mouth.

These hapless migrants have been incarcerated for almost ten years because of Thai gov't inaction and cowardice... caught between a rock and a hard place, the US and China. Whatever the Thais do will offend one of their Big Brothers. Now Li'l Marco has spoken up and scared the pee out of them. No telling what the new administration in Washington will do about this issue. The Thais should have sent them all off to Turkey (where they are welcome) a long time ago and China be damned. But no, they have been pussy-whipped and find it very hard to act independently.

Slimebag. He knows full well that gambling addiction is a major problem in Thailand. This is a bone thrown to his constituents to keep them on-side... just another vote buying scheme. Once up and running online and if casinos open, the corrupt Shinawatra clan will be stakeholders for sure and happy as pigs in poo.

Exactly... they're all bought and paid for. Good for a 555. On a much bigger scale just look at how many of the recent polls in the US had Harris leading Trump by wide margins. Rotten to the core.

An open Democratic primary to choose a more qualified candidate than Harris wouldn't have helped the Dems one bit. The whole party is dysfunctional. Their left-wing policies aren't widely supported anymore.

Where... in Japan? It would be wonderful if one opened in CM.

Pantip Plaza used to be the go-to place for mobile phone accessories and repair. It has undergone major changes in the past few years... maybe for the better, maybe for the worse. Check it out.

Ung-Ing, dutiful daughter that she is, obviously is not up to the task she has been assigned. Expect the Shinawatra Clan to do some reshuffling. Maybe Poo will be brought back into the game at some level. The Dragonhead looks like death warmed over.
