She went to the restroom where the 3 Burmese allegedly followed and "gang raped" her......so what was the boyfriend doing during this time and was he not alarmed when the men all left at a similar time to her.....strange

[darksidedog]

I dont know if they did it, or, if as they claim, it was consensual. I do know if I was a Burmese accused of a crime involving a farang, even if totally innocent, I would be very worried about the outcome.

That's an interesting question

Must of been a whole 20 mtrs away behind the shop (maybe also an external rear door for the shop as well )

Wouldn't one think it was strange that the whole 3 of them followed her to the toilet

Where were the sounds of screaming or a struggle before the time they had to (maybe ) gag her 

So during the struggle how long would it of taken 3 men to rape her ( maybe longer then 5 minutes )

At that stage it seems like her boyfriend wasn't worried

no real solid info in this story. impossible to draw any conclusions.

 

should be good for 15 pages of TV speculation.

All I can say is, I had many tourist visits to Thailand as an American before moving here. And of all those, I can't ever remember one time where I ended up sitting at a mini-mart/grocery store drinking and socializing (?) with three Burmese construction workers, or any Burmese construction workers for that matter. I must have missed that part of the tourist routine.

Not sure on this issue, but if a girl starts getting drunk, socializing (not flirting of course) with strangers by a roadside shop, in an unfamiliar country, that to when her boyfriend is present....what is the outcome to expect ? 

 

No judgement on this particular issue, just a comment on a behavioural pattern,  that can lead to misunderstandings and a dirty end !

It's possible police just wrote down the first words those suspects exclaimed when they heard they were going to be charged.

What is the logic or rule here, to decide when some culprits (sometimes confirmed, sometimes just accused) are shown with heavily pixelated or completely clear pictures.

 

[colinneil]

Did they do it or not?

They are Burmese case closed, serious jail time for them.

Iam glad I am not Burmese, African, Russian, English or a teacher these days!

I would be surprised if she agreed to accommodate all 3 of them in a toilet. Just doesn't sound likely.

In that case, I'd have thought "Dam, Daeng and Noi' might have been 'Damn, Dang and Durn!'.

Not to be raped one would assume.

What are you saying ?

Because you never did something , no one else could not  have done it ?

Welcome to the land of Gor.

If this were Gor there would be no need to rape anyone, as there would be a cheery female with a nose ring chained up nearby for use by anyone.

Consensual with 3 guys?

 

Would you be so skeptical if female member of your family was at receiving end?

Commenting just for the sake of posting sometimes leaves you with serious case of foot in the mouth disease.

I am thinking that she might have (with her friend not objecting) decided to try a bit of strange sex activity and  # 1 ,it got of hand and she was forced to do things that she didn' want or ,# 2 She sobered up later and falsely claimed the rape story. I am going with # 1 as her "friend" stood by for all this time. So guys if you see her out later .Stay the fxck away.

One possibility is that the BF was paying too much attention to one of the local Ladies and the GF decided to go one step further ?

   I have seen it quite often, young felangs with felang (just) GF (not felang wifes) taking a lot of interest in the local ladies and neglecting their GF , she may have been drinking and thought that it was a good idea (at the time) ?

[colinneil]

Lamkyong, how are on can you post a confused emoji on my post?

You need to get a life mate, if my post is confusing.

Then again it makes a change , you normally post a sad emoji.

You're right, on such a post he should have added a sad emoji

You're so right. The notion is absolutely absurd. Victim-blaming in a gang rape doesn't impress me at all.

Talk about hypothetical! Maybe he was fascinated by a UFO he saw.

The victim also identified the rapists, so how some can blame the police for a setup is also very sad.
