Popular Post billsmart Posted October 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2021 I, of course, don't at all condone or excuse this man for what he's alleged to have done, but I've always thought the Thai practice of having the alleged perpetrator "reenact" his crime is curious. Why would anyone do that, unless they are intending to plead guilty and would receive some kind of more lenient treatment or sentence if they cooperated in this manner? ???? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still astounding as to how such a sicko like this could be eligible for bail. What kind of girl is the GF, who is with him now, maybe the refuse to believe type, who knows. My guess would be if he gets bail he might fly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post newnative Posted October 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2021 He may be guilty and he may be a despicable individual but I applaud his refusal to participate in one of these ridiculous and dangerous sideshow publicity stunts the police like to put on and which accomplish absolutely nothing. And, anyway, I thought these reenactments had been outlawed. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet the defendant has, too. But he's not in America. I suspect that the need for a trial, or an admission of guilt in court, applies in most civilised countries in the world. As for the absolutely biziarre "reenactment" of an alleged crime that is practiced here, how can even the Thai Police claim it's an effective part of the criminal justice system? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As he has already admitted the crime(s), a reenactment is superfluous. It is a form of self indictment anyway, which has already been banned in this country. I'm sure the police have plenty of evidence anyway, what with witness's, CCTV and probably forensics. There is no need for such a charade. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caldera Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Not defending this guy, but if I were accused of any crime whatsoever, I would refuse to participate in a reenactment as well. It's just a silly exercise without merit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NO, if fact Thailand doesn't even have a jury system. Do our comments sway his day in court? No, I seriously doubt Thai judges read this forum. Did he admit the crime and blame meth? YES! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mansell Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 The only reason the word ‘allegedly’ is used these days because in America they are sue crazy, and this is why it became fashionable. If you were caught by the police over a body holding the knife dripping the victims blood, the news would say allegedly. Otherwise if it wasn’t proven in court multi million dollar law suits. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all need to be alert and aware of the fact that here the justice process is mostly bargaining. The earliest you start that bargain the better you get off. Involving a lawyer might be safer, especially in such a bad case , but will increase the cost. So being uncooperative in the reenactment shows that the negotiations aren't in a good shape.

I'm being sarcastic and yes, I do believe in a presumption of innocence. However, if they can hold his confession as admissible when he still may have been under the influence tells me that the justice system in Thailand differs from the US. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means nothing, the Police often fabricate confessions in the press to give the facade of a better detection rate and to enhance their filthy public image! These then tend to be forgotten when it gets to court. Let's see how this develops, it's Thailand and is never usually what it appears to be on the surface. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just think for a moment, there are over a million pro's in Thailand and if they all yelled rape because they didn't the money they wanted all customers would be in a pickle. Wow and off goes the defense squad. I am amazed at this and many other guys claiming false accusation. Did you read that the woman was on ICU straight after the accident. Could hardly talk. I mean if that is not violence and rape then what is. All those innocent until proven guilty, sure but we are not real judges but give our opinion. Sometimes when the facts are so strong. CCTV, 2 cases, multiple witnesses, guy admitting then it just means the chances of him being guilty are really high. So we can form an opinion. I bet nobody said innocent until proven guilty when the thai police torture case came out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This concept doesn't apply at all in Thailand. Ever watch the news? More than half of this 'news' couldn't be broadcast in the UK or nearly all other countries. Such 'news' that alleges this and that is called "prejudicing legal proceedings" and is punishable by imprisonment.

It’s possible that he claimed he was too high to remember anything. I tend not to believe news reports about crime in Thailand without corroborating news stories. But, often, different news agencies publish conflicting details. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
