What is the forum without speculation?

French man with Thai woman aside searching for French man in Bangkok.

Relationship drama or business dispute/debt?

Going in with a gun? Intend to murder?

Heavy.

 

I have searched for the website of the company.

Excellent stuff!

 

We will need Dr Watsons thinkulator to figure this one, but I can not see where it says going in with a gun, maybe the ownership of the gun may give some clues, but if this was a dispute over money or relations, then someone would have to take the gun to the scene and we may know soon if the gun was stolen or registered, which may throw some light on it. Sad event.

Sorry to hear that. They are not all that bad. I have met some very friendly ones.

Hmm.

 

Is David B. right-handed?

I see what you're getting at, but surely a leg shot would be a better idea.  I'm not a doctor, but I'm sure shooting yourself in the chest carries some risks.

That's seems to be a much more comprehensive analysis of what it was all about and what probably went down.

It certainly adds some important details:

 

Quote

another Frenchman with his Thai wife - stormed in and demanded to see him in Bangkok, Thailand, just after lunch.

"I demand to see you in Bangkok, Thailand, just after lunch!" - somehow very specific and vague at the same time... ????

Not sure what you mean - that's not an important detail. 

 

The important things that it adds, are details showing that this was almost indubitably a dispute over a business deal (rather than say, a relationship drama) and a better description of the sequence of events, based on eye-witness testimony.

The quote and then what you wrote are at odds against each other.  The facts in eveidence are that they stormed on in and demanded to see the man in question, not that they called, emailed, or messaged the man and Demanded he be there just after lunch in Bangkok....

It's not. I am simply highlighting the punctuation error which makes it sound like they were making an odd demand for a meeting.

The quote a what I wrote have the same meaning, because the author missed out a comma.

This story was covered in Stickman recently, and says the gunslinger Marc L, 66 mentioned in the o/p who came looking for a fight was 'Eden Marc' who ran Eden knocking shop on Soi7/1 years ago. Led quite a dodgy life by all accounts!

More than dodgy, he was a violent dangerous criminal as so horribly exhibited in his final crime. Seriously ill with cancer, so decided to gun down his girlfriend and business partner, allegedly over money. Amazingly some, including Stickman attempt to justify his actions on the basis of it's what a Thai would have done. Just because he was a pimp and smiled when you handed over cash in his sleazy brothel that did not make him a decent sort or a person to look up to, which some do who have fond memories of his 'club'. It was never a club of course and he died a murderer haggling over money, when he had made an enormous sum already.

Well, that’s an interesting development which puts a touch of relatability on the events. I haven’t read ole’ Stickman for a good while now, thought he had disappeared from the scene…

 

I never partook of the the offerings at Eden club but the reputation of the club and Marc was very well known.

 

Having now read the Stickman piece, Marc appears to have lived a very “colorful” life.

 

A shame it ended in such an undignified manner for himself and even more so for those he dragged into his dramatic final scene…

His whole life in BKK at least was undignified, he caused me enormous distress, threatened my wife and had her followed all over a few negative comments about is sleazy brothel. He also extorted 40k baht from me threatening me with his Police contacts. He was a violent criminal and the only shame at the end was he did not live to finish his life in a Thai prison after committing murder. He is just the sort of foreigner not wanted, here or anywhere.

Roast in Hell Marc!

He should have stuck to his pimping business maybe, made a million dollars selling the brothel and bar, allegedly.
