I personally do not care what happened while he was in prison... he did this. where do you get this "entitled attitude" from, I see NOTHING that indicates he thinks he is "entitled." 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These countries do not look at rehabilitation it is punishment. We also know that embassies can do little If you are famous or have famous parents it means nothing unless you are Thai No sympathy you do the crime you do the time what's your point, are you actually siding with the RTP behaviour, if so, just say so. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as though the repercussions for being caught with drugs are not known. Had a friend do 6 months for a joint he had in his pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel bad for his suffering, but come on, did he not know about drugs and Thai prisons? Why take those kind of chances? I knew about it long before I came here, and I wouldn't at the time (10 years ago) even go near anyone smoking weed. True true. Never put your self in that position if you do the chances it will happen. Years ago I was on walking street daytime in the front using a ATM I noticed a bag on the floor it was clear to me it was weed and something more I never bend down to attempt acted like I never saw it to pick it up I grab my cash and walked away.

He said, it was worse than any movie depiction and, he thought he was going to die. i call bs on this. if i am correct there was a thread about this a few months back that had conflicting statements in it. i could be wrong. 6 hours ago, webfact said: “The business was great when I came here, I made a lot of money and then Covid hit. what's the issue here sport ? during covid the crypto market went bananas. it was literally a chicken shoot. the bottom of the market was mid march 2020. it went up for a year straight after that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" believed his crypto business would thrive in thailand"??? Maybe he convinced a few cops to become fabulously wealthy buying crypto and then when they figured out he had conned them they were not real happy....what kind of crypto biz exactly requires you to be anywhere other than in front of a keyboard?

Who would not know that having illegal drugs is not a good idea in SEA? IMO one would have to be pretty ignorant not to and one has to wonder if they should be let on a plane if that dumb. Always some chancer to give the cops entertainment though. Loads of the idiots go to the FMP and buy drugs from dealers that inform the cops who they sold to. The only thing I was ever really scared of while in LOS was being banged up in a scam and ending up in a Thai jail. I certainly never used illegal drugs while there.

Popular Post alanrchase Posted July 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2023 From the article it seems he was never in prison. It appears he was fined and kept in IDC waiting to be deported. I suspect the conditions in IDC are rough but the pictures suggest you can have a mobile phone. It would also seem he needed the NZ embassy to get him a flight? Was that due to his conviction or because he had no money to buy a ticket? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emdog Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I wonder how many of the commentators here that push for throwing him in a deeper and darker hole, he broke the law and deserves the worst, yada yada.... are the sort that brag about paying off a cop who pulls them over for drunk driving? "Yeah, no nanny state here... just pay the bribe and you're on your way".

Apart from that, you shouldn't take my comments, and probably many other, too serious.

Popular Post WHansen Posted July 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2023 (edited) Something doesn't sit right about this story as many have already commented. All of that for a couple of E's ??? Theres a full moon party every month down there with thousands of people dropping them like smarties and enjoying themseves, so the local police are no strangers to finding people in possesion of a few pills. Theres definately more to this story. Edited July 10, 2023 by WHansen 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
