webfact Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Video: The sad face of hard drugs in bust of mother in Pattaya Picture: Pattaya News The Pattaya News posted a video of a sting operation that resulted in the arrest of a woman from Prajuab Khiri Khan who was dealing in crystal meth in Pattaya. The story was particularly heart wrenching as the woman's 11 year old daughter would not stop crying after a raid conducted in Soi VC. Drug enforcement officers and the Bang Lamung local district chief had received information from an informant that Supha Lengyindee, 41, was dealing in Soi VC. They raided some rented rooms and she was arrested on charges of possession and intent to sell Class 1 drugs (ice and Ya Ba). The money shown in the video was the 6,500 baht cash used in the sting to purchase five grams of ice. The money is compared to a photocopy made before the raid for evidence purposes. Supha said that she had lost her job and was dealing to get money to look after her daughter. The child was taken into care and will be likely looked after relatives as her mother will be off to jail.

Consider the relatives that will have to raise the traumatized child, and no doubt others have been ripped off and lied to by this sick individual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Henrik Andersen Posted December 11, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2018 I have no sympathy for dealers or user but when I say that I also know she will probably never had do this if Thailand have a law about thai men can't just run away from their responsibility and not take care of their children financially sad for the child... 6 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post foxboy Posted December 11, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2018 not exactly a 'hardened dealer'.. I can't help but feel a little sorry for this woman. We will probably never experience her hardship, thankfully. I suspect her 'dealing' wasn't to 'get rich'... just 'get by' 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No short road to getting street drugs under control when so many high ranking and influential people are funding the trade from supply to sales.. using poorer people to do the distribution while they rake-in the profits sitting in their ivory towers above the law !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot find it in my heart to feel anything but sympathy for this woman and her daughter. I agree with your post, while I would never condone the selling of drugs I do have some sympathy for this girl and daughter, she's trying to keep a home & feed a family in the only way she know's how to do it. Yes some might say she's making fast money out of misery and I would agree, but she's only the bottom of a very tall ladder, I'd arrest and convict her as a warning, but offer a suspended sentence if she named names so they could get the real people behind the misery... hitting the lowest rung isn't going to stop anything, you've got to get to the top tier!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantom Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Thank you Hotchilli, to add something else, a female representative from the police should accompany the 'sting' team, if for nothing else the 11 year old child present. There is no excuse as the team must have known that the person they were targeting was a young woman, alone with an 11 year old daughter and that their actions would result in great distress.

ronaldo0 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Why is he running up the stairs with gun drawn like the FBI when there are people already in the room standing with their hands on their hips talking to her ?? Pathetic. Try catching the big people but that wont happen . Never hear of the big guys getting caught only the lower ones . Try investing in sniffer dogs and proper border guards ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
