Mansell Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 6:30 in the evening and drunk already......boggles the mind. Killing another human and his retarded friends are cheering and shooting video......their mothers would be so proud of raising such low life's for sons. Now a family is in mourning for a lost son......very sad. And a number of lives wasted.......at least he had the cojones to hand himself in to the police instead of running like a bi#%*.

American laws and the breaking of American laws have zero to do what took place in Thailand and what the penalties are for such disgraceful behavior. Hopefully 20 years in a Thai prison should change the perpetrators attitude. Umm, committing murder anywhere in the world violates American law and he could be prosecuted under American law Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on thai law time now and I hope the coward rots in a thai jail No, the American law could be very pertinent. He could be prosecuted under American law, and Australian law, and Thai law. He could possibly be extradited to Australia or America. Many things could happen. Thai law has possession of him at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he will rot in prison in Thailand and then burn in hell. Kicking a man's head when he is down is the most despicable act imaginable. His bloody US friends should get a long time in prison also, for not stopping the idiot, for not helping the victim, leaving him and for making pictures. Bastards of the lowest order, all of them. Yes he is on Thai soil, but that does not mean he will stay there. He might be extradited to Australia, or the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, horrific actions by the American but what is appropriate action/ force to stop someone strangling/killing someone. If the Australian hadn't died, everyone would be praising the American for saving the Thai girls life. Knocking him out, then leaving him on the floor would teach him a lesson. That, in some instances, would lead to death too, if you get unlucky. How about just stepping in, defusing the situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have no jurisdiction over crimes committed in other countries. People return to their home countries to escape prosecution, then the country extradites them back, the home country doesnt charge them.. It also violates Uzbekistan Law, can they prosecute as well ?

If that's all it was, I stand corrected, although I would always try to solve a conflict peacefully there are occasions where that's not possible due to the other party being too aggressive. Let's wait and see, if this report is true there is no end to the pain I wish he experiences in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American law allows for holding Americans overseas liable for crimes that are committed there and that break USA laws. So, depending on the circumstances, lawyers, politicians, etc. many things could happen to this man. Ugly or not, he is definitely a brain dead coward and thoroughly deserves whatever miseries happen to him in the prison system!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the parent company of Thaivisa , The Nation, says knocked unconscious . The American -- Jose Manuel Polanco, 42 has been charged with physical assault leading to death. The deceased Aussie (43) was Benjamin Matthew Robb. Moments before the altercation, the Aussie (Robb) had "picked up a waitress by grabbing her neck until her feet were up in the air" ... According to a club regular, "Robb often acted in an aggressive manner and was known by some to be a trouble maker." The American (Polanco) said he interfered because Robb was throttling the woman. Polanco admits punching Robb "three or four times" but also claims he acted in self defense. https://www.dailynews.co.th/regional/626898 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumbastheycome Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Medical injuries list including cranial trauma. Suppressed comment unlikely not to contradict "anecdotal " witness statements until all charges specified. In a situation where drunken f wits get out of self control there is no innocence on either side ! But when it leads to death it need be held to account !

Not sure about murder, manslaughter or other crimes, but child porn and sex criminals can be sent back to home countries of USA and Canada and be charged and prosecuted there...where sentences are much harsher.

Skeptic7 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Gotta love the Hang 'Em High rush to judgment mob here on TV. The initial story that has been reported may be 100% accurate, but likely not. Many of the original news stories reported that 4 or 5 guys ganged up on Robb...Thai style. Turns out those reports were wrong. Also, other reports say Robb was known as an agressive troublemaker who was choking a girl with feet dangling and acting belligerent towards others. To be crystal...I am NOT trying to justify anything by anybody involved. Just saying that maybe before the TV vigilantes have the accused executed without all the facts...better cooler heads prevail and get all the facts first. Just sayin'!
