Had 2 occasions being involved with the corrupt police here, first time a senior policeman accepted money and got me jailed, second time serious road accident, police involved lied about how it happened. Have nothing but contempt for the MIB lying cheating corrupt bar stewards is the best I can say about them! It's ALL about money with them and the explanation is simple plod on the street HAS to kick up money to his supervisor and so on and so on why do you think the chief of police in phuket received 10 mil THB from the incoming guy? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CharlieH Posted June 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2021 Stinks, initial guess and theory, The son didnt want to wait and needs the money ! Introduced some kind of toxin via food or drink, they passed out, were pushed unconcious in to the pool to drown, while he took a walk.The autopsy shows death by drowning, case closed, in true easy Thai fashion. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussieroaming Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 One adult person drowning in a swimming pool is unusual but occurs. The probability of 2 adults drowning in the pool on the same day would be miniscule. Accidental drowning..hmmm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, maybe electrical fault in pool lighting for example, and both electrocuted. There better be an autopsy. ???? Pool lights run on 12 volts. Try putting each hand on the terminals of your car battery, and see if you die. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they did, anything else would mean the lazy sods would have to do some work. This begs an honest question. Aside from cops that have a specific (traffic) and or specialized (forensic pathologist) duty - what do 95% of the cops actually DO?! At least immigration officers push paper from one side of the desk to the other. I have no idea what the purpose of police in this country.

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted June 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2021 (edited) And the reason the five ruling families of Dark Tao are so fabulously wealthy, is that they have been selling land illegally for decades, with the complicity and cooperation of the land office, and most likely the local government. We can't mention who the land belongs to. So fortunes are being made. And guess who is looking the other way? How many consecutive administrations have been looking the other way? Koh Samui and Koh Phangan are to some degree, lawless. But, the way those islands are operated, bears some resemblance to responsibility, and is done in a somewhat organized fashion. Dark Tao is a lawless land unto itself. It makes Tombstone, Arizona, back in the 1860's and 1870's, look like a beacon of law and order. There is no secret here. And the solution to this problem is relatively simple, but will never, ever happen. Arrest the serial killer. Many know who the guilty family is. But, the problem is they are above the law. Any and all laws, including the army. This administration was created, to protect the elite, the wealthy, the connected, and those in power, despite proclamations to the contrary. So, the headman's son could not be arrested, even though the police, and many others knew who was guilty. Those poor Burmese chaps were framed, so this worm could roam free. And what does he do? He continues with his hobby of mayhem. If his father, the headman, had the slightest bit of intelligence, or control over his wayward son, he would ask him to behave himself, or at the very least to ply his trade elsewhere. Instead, he stays at home, and continues to inflict terror on Dark Tao. This family is fabulously wealthy, due to decades of illegal land sales. Therefore, they are untouchable. Even when it comes to murder, and mayhem. Totally above the law. Do yourself a favor and never visit this island of plague, death, and horror. I have sworn it off, after having visited it at least ten times in the past. I learned to dive there. However, even the diving, is marginal at best. I will never return. I do not want to support the five criminal families, who run that island. This place is as dark as anyplace in the region. It is the Louisiana bayou, of SE Asia. Avoid it. Deny it. Stay away, for your own good. Edited June 5, 2021 by spidermike007 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevemercer Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 The autopsies should be able to show whether electrocution was the cause, heart attacks or some other health issue. For example, electrocution will mean limited water in the lungs compared to drowning, for both victims. Rest in Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IslandLover Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 (edited) 3 hours ago, Moonlover said: Drowning in a pool is most certainly possible and apparently this one was around 2 meters so it's feasible. But you question whether 2 people can drown. That is also feasible. If one party got into difficulties and the other attempted to help them, it can be a double tragedy waiting to happen. A trained rescuer is taught to be very wary of the victim panicking and grabbing hold of the rescuer. This can result in both parties struggling to survive. Trained rescuers learn to keep clear of the victim, even by pushing or kicking them away if necessary and endeavor to restrain the victim from behind. An untrained rescuer would not be aware of the dangers. I can easily visualize how this tragedy occurred and yes, I have taken both Royal Life Saving Institute training and the PADI rescue diver courses. Puts me in mind of Ronnie and Roxy Mitchell, the sisters who drowned in the swimming pool in an episode of EastEnders. However, EE is a soap opera ......

If you abide by the rules and contribute to any country, you should be allowed to stay. The US doesn't have near the rules Thailand has for Thai's to stay there.. You contribute and stay out of trouble, you should be allowed to stay anywhere on earth. There are bad police in every country, and a lot here are looking the other way where human trafficking is involved, as Thailand has a huge problem where that is concerned. There are a lot of corrupt police everywhere, and I know quite a few cops here that are very good at their jobs and legit, and the news shows the opposite also. As far as the post is concerned, it looks to be a homicide to my thinking. Drowning two people only takes a few minutes with only two strong men involved. Billionaires are huge targets and should have people watching them. Edited June 5, 2021 by fredwiggy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
