Krataiboy Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Sticking your money under a mattress is almost as risky as sticking it in a bank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe his good friend ,coming back from Cambodia ,discovered the breakin went next door to report and saw a similar mattress lying in plain sight for all to see .... stains and all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point maybe the target was the mattress maybe he soiled his and was worried about his deposit so his intention was to swap it and the bonus ball came in when he found the wad of cash.

Seems like once he got his hands on the 3000 in cash, leaving the mattress in situ would have made detection on his crime slightly less obvious ... if the security cameras hadn't been there.

Believe Thai reporting is he got the money first and departed (as video seems to show) - then went back later to get the mattress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenmonkey Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 This country really does amaze me. All these police, staff, photographers etc involved for a small theft crime. I mean the number of man hours wasted is quite staggering. Can someone explain to me why they feel the need to make these videos and reanactments... what purpose do they serve? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly so many showed up because they heard that someone stole his friends mattress and wanted to see for themselves. Stealing a friends, money, car, wife has all been done before, but stealing their mattress I believe is not so common. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mattress should be shot and the cost of the bullet sent to Sealy Postureapedic..or Slumberworld..or whatever.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timendres Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Absolutely love the "Pattaya..." branding on the CCTV footage. Genius marketing there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberfarang Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Don`t think I`d want my mattress back after those pair of stinking scum had been sleeping on it. Like many other western losers that decide to stay in Thailand for the good life, this guy was probably desperate and decided to take a gamble that he wouldn`t get caught. It beats me why these people actually come here that have to be the biggest tossers of the century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One wonders how he got to be the chief when his observational powers appear to be somewhat lacking. Shame on the British fella for doing something so shitty.

mmushr00m Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 "The police chief also mentioned in the video that the money was 3,000 Euros contrary to press reports it was in pounds. " Lol. Simple reason for this . £1 = THB42 €1 = THB37 £3000 = THB126,000 €3000 = THB111,000 Anyone get what I'm trying to say? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polaky Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 The guy is obviously not all there, you do lose sense of reasoning when you get older especially with an underlying problem, no one in their right mind would steal something from the room next door, his wife should have known better but was probably only following orders, people here are quick to critisize before understanding the full story.

TKDfella Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I think with today's technology, and relatively cheap to buy, one should assume that someone is watching and not the reverse. Having been caught on this occasion I wonder if the couple have done it before? Well, now he has a criminal record in Thailand and deserves appropriate punishment. On the other side of the coin it isn't wise to keep large amounts of money at home either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
