True. Before closing, some inmates escaped by scraping a hole through the concrete cell wall with spoons. The salty sea air/fog has taken it's toll on the place. The cost of transporting everything to the island prison by boat is also very expensive. It does have an amazing 360 degree view of the San Francisco bay though.

I was waiting for "The pilot fled.".

I have a personal Mace sprayer barely larger than a lipstick tube that shoots a stream seven meters. Your conclusion is flawed.

Or he knows the assailant's girlfriend.

Being that the tour companies are not named, I believe the door to getting around this issue is still ajar.

If he gets bail, confiscate his passport first.

Coke Zero and SangSom.

I suppose it was after the 02:00 bar closing time but what the heck is a "makeshift bar"?

Well, it was a dating app, not a house cleaner app.

The Thai government has proposed fining polluters who exceed the government recommended pollution emissions. What a farce. The polluters will continue to pollute and pass the cost of the fines on to the consumers. The government will collect the fines and Thai air quality will continue to get worse, eventually resulting in a general increase in respiratory diseases and cancers. The only way to decrease pollution is to set limits for emissions and stop emissions producers from production if they can't meet the government set standards. It is an expensive fix as new technologies and equipment must be developed that add to the cost of the products. However, it does work. I've seen it work in Southern California in the '70-'80s when their smog problem was similar to Bangkok's

Nah, just some Darwinian housekeeping being done.

Yes, it's called involuntary digital rigidity, akin to what too much Viagra produces.

On second thought, with him having killed a person during interrogation, the other convicts may have "helped" with his suicide. He would have been a target, no doubt.

So he has been found guilty of nothing yet is dismissed without a pension. He must have really pissed someone off.

"investigated by local police and prison officials" Maybe he has enough evidence on higher ups that a phony suicide was done with another poor soul as his body double. He could be out of the country now. TIT

Fixed it for you.

I'm waiting for the PM to declare her father a special emissary, or some such, who represents Thailand at the ASEAN meeting, thus circumventing his travel ban. Pardon my cynicism.

"And robust police as well" Naw, probably the usual BIB.

I edited my original post for clarity.

There is a terror alert issued by the U.S. embassy in Thailand for U.S. citizens in Thailand. Since the Uyghers were sent to China, Uygher sympathizers may attack Thailand, especially areas of tourist concentrations. Maybe the Thai government is exercising a rare example of it being proactive with it's show of force at the festival. Making knowledge of a possible terrorist attack public would be too much to ask as it might hurt tourist numbers.

I feel sorry for the loyal Trump supporters who are now conflicted by their love for Trump and their hatred of communism, Russia and Putin.

Brake lights don't go on with the handbrake.

Not in the U.S.A.. The U.S. news media makes huge efforts not report criminals' ethnicity if it is an illegal immigrant(s) who commits the crime.

They are in deep doo-doo now.

How did she get the ATM's PIN (Personal Identification Number)?
