HAPPYNUFF Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Hey, Dogmatix, a twist to your tale.....Some years ago, in another life I was associated with the legal profession (not as a lawyer, I do have some morals) I had occasion to be at the office of a very famous criminal defence lawyer, delivering documents. I could hear a conversation he was having with some clients, through the wooden partioning, of what was apparently his interview room. I was aware a pair of Chinese had been recently arrested for smuggling a quantity of herion into the state I was living in. and I could hear, b ut not understand what they were saying I m ust have missed part of the conversation given by the Chinese, as suddenly, in a raised voice, I heard the lawyer, whom I kn ew well, raise his voice and say words to the effect... " thats no good, we"ll never gat that one past the jury think of something else to tell them" As an old mate of mine was want to say, a lawyer is something that can walk under a snakes belly while wearing a top hat, usually accompanied by their client. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topah Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) So if almost 100% of Thai police is corrupt... how this will work out. Police will hunt and arrest themselves? Edited August 26, 2021 by Topah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Investigation just started and not all will be disclosed, as all it implicates his subordinates and superiors in force. Just one of his residencies in thailand. Probably he is already at his another home across border in cambodia or laos My thoughts excately, how could anyone not know that he was driving a bloody Bentley lol crazy. So yes these checks should now go up not down???????????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not this lawyer who was given the tape from the junior police officer. Decha Kittiwittayanan is courageous lawyer with integrity who dare to go public with the murder claim and force the authority to take action and made the arrests. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevemercer Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 This guy's life might make an interesting movie, but I doubt it could be made in Thailand. Apparently he used to head up a unit investigating illegal imports of luxury cars. He was able do a 'deal' to acquire the impounded cars he liked before they went up for auction. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gk10012001 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 It really is obscene. The scale of things and the length of time it had to be going on to accrue such things. One can only imagine the under the table payoffs, bribes, coercion, cooperation with some of the drug traffickers, etc. I just watched the Movie American Gangster. I thought it was a decent film as it portrayed reasonably well how some things were at the time I grew up. The drug dealing and stealing, etc. As for Thailand, the challenge would be for some reporter(s) or investigator(s) to spend a year researching and collecting and itemizing the properties and things owned by police all over Thailand. Once they collected the information, then do some basic financial forensics about the total values versus salaries. Of course if they were found out the investigators would be in big trouble. And if the information was ever released, the people might be killed or just disappear. And since Thailand seems to sue for defamation at the drop of a hat, even if true and just questions were asked, this sort of investigation woud be very unlikely to happen. But it would be wonderful to see it be done. Hopefully the reporters could be found that are willing to risk it and then somewhow could get sanctuary or protection.

The most cars, the biggest mansions, the hottest chicks. And especially in this country with its inequality and poverty. Absolutely no guilt. The ego, the gall. I was just thinking how the cost of rego and insurance on my 2013 Vigo Champ was somewhat of a burden each year. Imagine how much it would cost for 29 high end vehicles plus maintenance etc?? How much would that work out per km? Its staggering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggles45 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 The saddest part of all this is that all his colleagues knew about all of this, most likely including his bosses who he no doubt shared the takings with. Of course it will all go nowhere, in Thailand corruption is encouraged then everyone closes ranks as it could be them next 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just something I remembered. As you say its endemic in this culture. I think it is more pervasive than that even. If you look at how Mexican and Columbian drug cartels operate, it seems like the rest of the world's criminal organizations, even the RTP in this case, have figured out how easy it is to succeed at crime when you grease the right palms with $$$$ or brown envelopes or whatever you want to call it. In Mexico, drug cartels give people the option of take the money or take a bullet and when they say this they mean, either yo take the money or you and your whole family will get a bullet. If you think this is far fetched, go to BBC and read about some of the violence that has been prevalent in South America for the last 20-30 years. That includes men, women, children, the elderly, the sick, your dog, your pet hamster...it doesn't matter nobody is off limits, if the cartels come after you.
