So after being threatened with being sued over a dodgy 250 baht haircut he thought stabbing them both to death was a good business move? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andycoops Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Another sad tale and even more shame for the Thai justice system that another wealthy murderer can stump up half a million baht and walk after killing 2 people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy killed two people, there are witnesses, he confessed, and still he gets bail. Unbelievable. Next thing we hear he will be in Dubai. Old lady gets 15 years in prison for picking mushrooms in a national park (or something like that, correct me if I’m wrong) "It is really incredible how rich people here can literally buy their freedom". It is really not incredible how rich (and not so rich) people here can literally get bail. they don't "buy their freedom", they get bailed temporarily before their court appearance and possible life sentence because at that stage, regardless of what they admit to or what is reported, they are innocent until proven guilty. "Old lady gets 15 years in prison for picking mushrooms in a national park (or something like that, correct me if I’m wrong)". You're wrong. The "old lady" was a woman who was a member of an illegal logging gang, not just a "mushroom picker", and she was released ages ago after serving nowhere near 15 years.

What about the rights of the 2 people he murdered? What about the rights of the child who saw her parents brutally murdered in front of her, or don't they matter to you? IMHO, he forfeited ALL his rights when he turned on the couple and stabbed them. There is NO justification for that at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today, the headlines in ASEAN NOW are reporting that an a.. hol. who lynched 2 people in front of their children is released on 500,000 baht bail. This is Thailand ............. So much garbage. That woman wasn't prosecuted for "accepting to receive a package", she was done for possession of Class 1 narcotics and drug trafficking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrPhibes Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 23 hours ago, prakhonchai nick said: He is certain to get a custodial sentence -should be life but likely far less, so whats with the nonsense of giving him bail now, when there is absolutely no doubt of his guilt. If I were the 8 year old daughter, who sadly witnessed her parents being knifed to death -something she will never never forget - I would be waiting for the murderer to be set free, then either kill him myself or pay someone to do it. Justice needs to be served! Might I offer her a role model for such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many have gotten bail and then done a runner to escape justice? That’s what I meant by buying their freedom.

People like that should NEVER be granted bail. "How many have gotten bail and then done a runner to escape justice?" No idea, specifically, but not many, I'd guess. You got a percentage? Bail absconding happens everywhere yet the bail facility still exists, worldwide; just because a tiny minority abuse it doesn't mean it shouldn't be available. "as for ‘innocent until proven guilty’: like I said, the guy killed two people over nothing, there were witnesses, he confessed, he’s guilty as sin". Confessions can be, and frequently are, withdrawn and no one gets convicted on the basis of nothing more than a confession. I'm not condoning his actions but, regardless, of what happened, he has rights and whatever your subjective opinion is, he is innocent until proven guilty. Perhaps you think that the basic tenets of law should be abandoned and that the laws should be rewritten to allow for kangaroo courts in the media and anonymous forums?
