gk10002000 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 From the article link: " However, the CCTV footage did show a man, likely a night security guard, in a chair behind the front desk while the thief stole the envelope" All suspicious. She routinely leaves ATM cards and jewelry in a parked car? Ah BS. Thais hold on to and wear their jewelry as a way of showing off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was simply stupidity to leave a car door open. Car theft is hardly a problem here, but leaving a door open in a public space is asking for issues.

As a lawyer she'd be aware that theft without forcible or violent entry or exit would not be covered under an insurance policy and theft from unattended vehicles is also often excluded. Probably didn't want to take valuables to a crowded procession, which is sensible. Agree with stevenl, just a silly and costly oversight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelepulse Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Wait, isn't offering a reward to catch a perp usually the first thing one does when going to the police ( tongue in cheek) when you want them to do something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost sounds like a deal gone wrong trying to sell some stuff, and then a vain attempt at robbery theft claim. Just because she claims to be a lawyer does not mean she knows anything about this type of crime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
