Get the ANF crack detective team on the case? I am sure they will solve it in 20+ pages of arguments

And how much have the victim's family in relation to the nightclub fire in the Mountain B nightspot in Sattahip been given... we seem to have stopped counting the victims of that one.

What were the defendants in this case guilty of(?), I never heard what exactly happened in this case, my wife doesn't really know either. I followed it for a while on the news but like a lot of cases in LOS, lots of grey areas.

[lujanit]

I thought she had been paid 30 million baht already.  Or was that fake news?

[mikebell]

The six, who are guilty of something, pay blood money and all charges are dropped?  Amazing Thailand!

But... who pays / provides all this money? Over many decades.

 

Or does this money come from a slush fund (actually from taxpayers)? And paid out regardless of guilt etc?

 

If she withdraws the charges does that mean they are no longer being charged with anything? How can that be? 

 

Always seemed that there was way too many police / celebrities / others involved in this case. 

 

In any even has there been an actual court case, and what was the result?

 

As seems normal in some cases more questions than answers and it all goes quiet and forgotten.

There are references to this article in the Bangkok News forum starting about page 25.

Some people just have a bigger value than others.

Bottom line is that this is what the mother was looking for it was never about finding someone guilty.  It was a case of a mother that had a beautiful daughter that she groomed to be a cash cow for her that lost that cow and needed a way to replace it.

 

Her daughter's death was never a tragedy but was a way for her to become wealthy.

Nope, she did not get that amount. According to the article she received 2 Mio baht and a promise from 6 Thais...

Someone needs to check the maths "nearly 10 million " 400.000 + 1.6x2 =3.6 +240×30.000 =10.800

Sorry my mistake 2 checks totaling 1.6 so it is 9.2

[ross163103]

If the defendants are willing to pay her compensation they must have done something wrong but I still haven't heard what that might be. I know she either fell out of, or was thrown out of the boat but that's about it. Does anyone know what actually happened?

[smutcakes]

So much wrong with this case. Surely they need to actually charge the people involved or try them... i suspect this was just a terrible accident, all were drunk, all had been partying and all were having great fun until something awful happened. Sometimes terrible things do happen and it does not always need to be someones fault and someone to blame. You can be sure if it was one of her friends who are not famous then this would not of been heard of.

 

As far as I can see the defendants have basically agreed to pay some damages to the Mum to get her to drop the case. Probably works for everyone... The police probably would have a hard time proving any real crimes, the other people involved probably just want to move on with their lives and not be fighting in court for years, and the mother probably just wants a bit of money and probably realizes herself that it was just an accident.

30,000 x 240 = 7.2M, + 3.2M + 400,000 in my maths is 10.8M

They seem to be guilty of letting her get drunk as a skunk and possibly take drugs poor dear SHE WAS 37 not a child, but all very fishy a they tried to cover it up and didn't report it for 2 hours. Dec 11 next hearing, get the popcorn in.

Good the best way to get theses people is to hit them in the pocket when the criminal negligence laws are insufficient
