This from The Daily Mail Australia: “ Carman had been living for eight months in the Rimhad Jomtien Condominium complex, popular with foreigners chasing a quieter life, where he worked as a handyman and kept a low profile.“ Another “ source “ claims he worked at Laks bar and had been renovating several apartments.

He got a great deal by buying in 2025. I would not buy the graphics card, however, yet he paid only USD549 for that. No doubt, he got a great deal, compared to buying today.

It worked before.Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:10:32 +0000You keep parroting the same excuse for defending this unduly lenient sentence, but you are being disingenuous in your defence of the judge. Your statement that the the judge applied the law as it is written, deflects completely from the fact that it is the judge’s sole responsibility for sentencing. It is not written in law that he should have sentenced this vile scumbag to 3½ years, so the law does not need changing, and the sentencing guidelines are for a maximum of 5 years for the ABH conviction alone; and I have no idea why you do not think that this appalling act of violence on two policewomen does not deserve the maximum sentence permissibly by law.Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:08:00 +0000I will ask you again, since you were unable to express comprehension before. You stated ie, you expressed an opinion that this sentence is less than would have been awarded in the past. I cited you the example of Stephen Lennon, otherwise known as Tommy Robinson, a half-Irishman born in Luton, who, in 2005, was convicted of ABH against a police officer, by kicking him in the head. He was sentenced to 14 month inside, but was out in 5 months. Do you think this was a typical sentence handed down for assaulting a police officer 20 years ago, when you believe judges were tougher on thugs who assault the police? Do you think 5 months is about the right jail time for someone who assaulted a police officer in 2005? Do you believe if the person that "Tommy Robinson" assaulted in 2005 wasn't a police officer (ie a civilian), then he should have served less time? If a 3.5 year sentence in 2026 isn't long enough for ABH against police officer, how long should Robinson have been in prison for? If you believe Robinson served the correct amount of time, what makes him a special case?Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:01:57 +0000Where Thailand attracts the poor low-lifes, Dubai simply attracts the rich ones.Mon, 29 Jun 2026 23:57:00 +0000My Thai family is a prime example.
