Visa exempt should be reconsidered. can we secure a criminal background check through our consulates? this to me outweighs a statement fo income.

mvdf Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) Looks like he made a confirmed reservation at the Bangkok Hilton. Such opulence. I hope he enjoys every day of his stay there. This tragic case raises and begs the question: how was he allowed to leave the United States? Travel into and out of that country is one of the planet's most tightly controlled and monitored movements. I thought passports were scanned well ahead of the flights and cross-checked with law enforcement databases. Edited May 7, 2021 by mvdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djayz Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Sounds like this guy has serious anger management issues. A nice, long, cozy stay at a Thai prison might teach him to control these urges to kill people. Dispecable behavior!

Popular Post Kerryd Posted May 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 7, 2021 For those who wonder how he made it into Thailand at all, it's not really that hard if you think about it. A) He wasn't convicted of a crime that had a sentence of (more than 2 years in jail is it ?). So no restriction on getting a Visa (if he even bothered). B) They don't do "criminal background checks" on people who arrive at Suvarnabhumi (or wherever) and get a 30 Day stamp. C) As in the case of Michael Karas, all one has to do is "steal" some ID from someone who looks similar to you and that is usually enough to get you through most international border crossings. (So long as the person who's ID was "stolen" doesn't report it of course.) D) However, he had a valid US Passport issued in 2017. Pleading guilty to a misdemeanour charge wouldn't be cause for a judge to confiscate someone's passport. Note the report doesn't say if he was here on any kind of Visa. The house was rented - probably in her name, not his. Not sure what he was thinking by going to Chiang Mai. Maybe hoping no one would notice "another foreigner" or hoping that "they all look alike" and hoping to hide until things died down ? I am surprised that they were able to track him down and arrest him so quickly all the same. Literally caught him within a day. (Maybe he did something stupid like rent a hotel room using his real name.) So if the police can find the body (15 kms from the home) and arrest the suspect over 185 kms away in the next province within a day, I'd say they are pretty competent (at least when they want to be). 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChipButty Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Man sentenced to probation, attempted murder charge dropped in Longmont case A Longmont man originally facing an attempted murder charge after police say a gun went off while he was threatening a woman with it has pleaded to a misdemeanor count after prosecutors said the named victim could not testify. Jason Matthew Balzer, 31, on Friday pleaded guilty to one count of third-degree assault in Boulder District Court and was sentenced to two years of probation, according to court records. Prosecutors said there was an issue with the named victim that led them to drop the original charges of of attempted second-degree murder, attempted first-degree assault, extortion, felony menacing, second-degree assault, criminal mischief and tampering with physical evidence. https://www.timescall.com/2019/12/06/man-sentenced-to-probation-attempted-murder-charge-dropped-in-longmont-case/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If something like this guy's past comes up in a background check then he simply shouldn't be allowed to set foot on Thai soil. Could be all about the money and worry about everything else later, i.e. he contributed to Thailand's economy since he was here, a numbers game, the occasional rotten apple gets in, now he will go to Bangkok Hilton with the same types of people that Thailand has put in there. So sad for the young lady having her life taken by this scumbag so early, also very sad for all those who would be affected by her loss, I can only hope he has a long and and uncomfortable life at his new address. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with hatred of the country, just understanding the level of native criminality. By the way it is more like $4800 now and you need a new citizenship first. Listen, there are two ways for Thailand to identify these lowlifes. Check their arrest records prior to entry (easy in the case of Americans), or let all and sundry in and wait for them to re-offend. Thus the tragic results. Thailands weak immigration procedures killed this woman, 100 percent. Edited May 7, 2021 by Captain Monday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
