Why Me Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Expect a book in 2059 on Amazon: Thai prisons versus American prisons: a first person comparison Preface: A life of crime can be rewarding by sometimes you get caught and put away for a long time. So it's wise before starting off to choose a country for its quality, or lack thereof, of prison life. This book ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the first guy caught pulled the old DraglIne routine (see "Cool Hand Luke") and told the cops where to find them in exchange for some type of consideration. .... ____________________________________________________________________________ Dragline: Luke?

cardinalblue Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Doesn’t sound like the type of guy who would shoot his wife or himself... just the photo itself looks like total chaos...Who is the woman being held back by some guy in the background? Are these actually policemen in the photo? Usually medical personnel control the scene once suspect Is disabled or wounded...Law and order it is not... will never get the true facts... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One might easily think that choosing between suicide and being taken alive, by the Thai cops after stabbing a Thai cop, and looking forward to 30+ years of beatings in the Bangkok Hilton.... should he live that long, was the easy choice. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the cops kill people who are trying to surrender they usually riddle them with bullets to make sure they are dead. It is possible that Helmus did shoot his himself and his girlfriend to avoid capture and further prison but odd that both of them survived. Perhaps he had the guts to shoot but not to kill. If he wanted to die in a blaze of glory he could have arranged that by shooting at the police. They had M16s which could have finished him off quickly and efficiently. At the end of the first video it shows what looks like a 1911 type .45 semi-auto pistol which would easily have finished both of them off, if aimed in a vital spot.

Dogmatix Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Love the way the cops dump the wounded woman into the flatbed of a pick-up, on which it is illegal to carry passengers, and a cop with an M16 slung on his back secures her with his arm around her neck. One bump could accidentally break her neck and and an accident involving the truck could result in her escaping again, perhaps in possession of the cop's M16. I guess Helmus, who looked in a lot worse shape was also dumped in the back of a pick-up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I misread the title as saying "...captured after shooting himself and Thai wife..." But she did seem to be moaning when they put her in the pick-up. Surprised they didn't handcuff her, if she wasn't wounded at all, specially as she has escaped before, rather than just putting her in a headlock in the back of the truck.

A self administered bullet in the head would have made things better instantly and allowed him to choose the time and manner of his own death with no further suffering. Al Baghdadi showed the way by blowing himself up with his kids. But to be fair we don't know for sure he shot himself. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
