The police and court system in Thailand have treated me really well.
Nobody asked for bribes, attacker was traced and caught, cash compensation was paid, sentencing to come in May.
When the guy said it was all my fault, the judge turned to him and said "find a better defense, you're going to jail".
Not been quick though, happened in Oct 23, sentencing in May 25 ....... 18 months from start to finish.
I didn't even hire a lawyer, all done by public prosecutor, my only expense was 2x court translator fee (required by police) at 1,000bht a time.
