Post a couple of picture of her and let's look how many people will come forward with information about what she did in Thailand. And then please publish whatever people all this. Because accusations is all we need, it seems nobody cares about facts and evidence anymore. Hmmmmhhh have you given any thought to the fact that there is an obvious and strong motivation for the Thai authorities to suppress the story while there isn't any that I could see for this girl to make up a story of that kind. I reckon we should thank he to show us how dangerously corrupt this place can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sound a lot like someone else who thinks that way. No, I don't, obviously, but neither do I believe that a woman who claims to have been raped (on a beach during a high tide) but refuses police interviews even in the safety of her own country and assisted by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, retains any credibility. If it turns out that I'm wrong and she has a justified case I'll happily apologise to her here. Perhaps you'd like to remind me of that in the unlikely event of it needing to be done?

There's three basic possibilities: 1. it happened, but the police aren't interested in getting the truth. 2. it happened, but there's not enough evidence to prove it despite best efforts. 3. it didn't happen and the young woman's lying. Given this is Thailand, the likelihood of ever getting a clear, dependable resolution among those options is probably pretty close to nill.

Just Weird Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 7 minutes ago, TallGuyJohninBKK said: The fact the Joke man offered it during a local news conference and it was reported by a Phuket newspaper doesn't necessarily mean that word of that offer ever has been communicated to the alleged victim or her family in the UK. Although, since the alleged victim did file a police report on the other issues, presumably the police would have some way to contact her if they really wanted to try. I'm not sure I've ever heard of them actually trying. A "local news conference" is a news conference and it was open to journalists from any counties, where would you expect the RTP to hold a press conference? It was reported in the Bangkok Post before the Phuket paper picked it up. Do you really think that the girl, her family, The Met, The Sun and The Times are not reading the press about the "case"? There is zero reason for her to be unaware of the interview offer. "...presumably the police would have some way to contact her if they really wanted to try". Why should the RTP have UK contact details for her and why should they in particular be the one's doing the contacting, it's the girl who has made the allegations, isn't it? Why has she not contacted them if she really had a case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically, an allegation of rape is a very sensitive matter, and it's the professionals in these cases who are obliged to be; well, professional. Not the alleged victim of an extremely traumatising experience. Key word there being 'professional'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick recap in case you missed it, she alleges she was drugged and only recalls waking up on the beach naked from the waist down and with some 'smiling' local guy nearby. Another quick recap in case you missed it, most victims of 'roofies', both male and female tend only to remember things that happened after they wake up.

She DID file a police report on the other issues. The Thai police have confirmed that. So presumably, when they took that report, they got all her personal info and details, including contact info. That would be a reasonable presumption even here, I'd hope!!! The Thai authorities know exactly who she is, and probably where she is, at least generally, in the UK. If they wanted to contact her or her family, it probably would be little more complicated than picking up the phone and dialing, or as another approach, have her or her family contacted by the Thai Embassy staff in the UK on behalf of the Thai police. Neither of those things have ever been reported as having been attempted or occurring, AFAIK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem absolutely convinced she is lying when there isn't any evidence either way. You're convinced she got incredibly drunk, had sex consensually with someone then passed out. I'm not convinced one way or the other. There aren't enough facts to convince anyone one way or the other, so I resent people who claim to know "the truth." It is entirely plausible that she is scared of the Thai judicial system. They're already arresting anyone who reported an "alleged" rape. Reporting that someone made a rape allegation isn't fake news. She made a rape allegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
