Were you in the bar when the incident happened? I'm guessing not as you have been told by a eyewitness what happened

 

So everything you have said apart from him being released is what you have been told, being told something does not mean it is a fact, especially if it comes from bar girls

 

Unless you were actually there you know about as much as everyone else

Agreed. "He said, she said, they said". Heresay, conjecture, hypothesis, fortune telling, guessing and imagination. Dip into the trough of fantasy and come up with the "truth", then type it out for the masses.

I saw a similar bar girl farang mock fight between a bar girl and a customer last week in Soi LKM. The girl was heating up the situation even if it was not real it lookedcl real.  In the murder in The  Ruby Club the girl is partially responsible. Do not fuel the fires of aggression even in jest in alchoho fueled environments. She was a contributer to the victims death by her stupid game.

Well said.

Well said.

Agree plus where I come from nearly all the pubs are derelict buildings now.

On other threads many were wondering if he was just a tourist, or more of a regular expat type.

Below is a photo of him with his Thai girlfriend, the same girlfriend he was in the bar with when he killed Robb.

His t shirt is interesting to read.

Anyone who lives here or visits here should know that you do NOT get into altercations with Thai people. You cannot win and you may die as a result. Simply walk away.

This is a thread about the killing of a foreigner allegedly by another foreigner. No Thais involved.

 

(But your warning stands up nevertheless.)

A series of dramatic raids and arrests in the sex dens were carried out at the behest of Kobkarn Wattanavrangkul, Thailand’s first female tourism minister. “Tourists don’t come to Thailand for such a thing,” she said. “They come here for our beautiful culture. We want Thailand to be about quality tourism. We want the sex industry gone.”

I think she is right. No tourists and no ex-pats support these sex workers. It is a wonder they still ply their trade, when nobody supports them. Nobody comes to Thailand for this. They come for the ballet, the live jazz, the world class museums, the opera, the vibrant wine scene, the stand up comedy, the exceptionally safe highways, the state of the art trains, the safety of exceptionally competent law enforcement, and the poetry readings. Listen to Kobkarn. She is a woman of great wisdom. She knows alot. She speaks only truth. She never, ever engages in deflection, and reflects a near John McCain level of integrity. Something very common in the government here.
