The lunatic did say in his testimony that his car was hit. And he did turn himself in and is fully cooperating. I don't know why he'd fabricate a little detail like that. The cameras probably have it. I have no reason to believe that didn't happen. And it was a little over the edge. Which pushed the lunatic over the edge. And I agree that its always farangs. Road rage is a national sport in the west. It isn't in Thailand. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said the Brit hit his car. If there's one thing that we can be certain of, it's that murderers always tell the truth. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're trying to apply logic and common sense to later actions of that same "man". I wouldn't believe a single word of what he said without additional proof. 4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And cameras most likely caught it all. Why would he make up this detail? You were there when he turned himself in? It is how he was at the time of the incident that is important, no mention as to whether he was under any influence then, as he had to wait until the morning to hand himself in. If you have to ask why he might have lied you do not know Thailand... a loud blast from a Scoopy horn got him all wound up... that even sounds ridiculous. And nothing could justify murder, the shooting of an unarmed man trying to get away. Sounds like a strong case of bigotry and hatred of foreigners.

morrobay Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 It is imparitive that this case be followed: And if he gets off with less that 15 or 20 years then a very serious letter writing movement to embassy's is in order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimTripper Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 1 hour ago, Harsh Jones said: Being an introvert is lower risk indeed One can be an extrovert or introvert. The main thing is to not show all your cards. It’s easier if your introverted because you can deflect questions better. Notice how the comments all mention how he was an engineer, not short of money, worked all over for the railroads, etc. Sounds like he was an open book. Many people don’t like that. They get envious, smile to your face, but keep digging for more info rather than going away. They get angry inside the more success you seem to have but act like they like you. Like a kettle that boils over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could have been anything, road rage or something else. The thing that feels odd to me is the reports on the victims character and how great a person he was. It could be true, it just seems a bit over the top compared to usual reporting. Edited January 13, 2023 by JimTripper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
