When you can have legal sex with any 18 year old Thai woman/girl, I find it crazy that a foreigner would even try a relationship with anyone younger than that.  
Also when most Thais looks younger than their age.  He was pushing it and deserves the punishment. 





 

Sir, I doubt anyone can have sex with "any" 18yo Thai woman . 99.9% would most probably tell you to <deleted> off.

Any news regarding this? Read somewhere he got 10 years and is being deported back to USA to serve.

Heinz introduces hands-free robotic snack dipper for gamers

 

Heinz has launched a new solution for gamers after research showed that 90% of gamers struggled to eat snacks while playing.  

In comes Heinz’s new robotic snack dipper, 'Hum Hum', created to feed into gamers' love for dipping snacks in sauces. The device taps into this, built on the insight that 75% of gamers wish they could eat while playing – which is difficult when their hands are occupied with gaming. 

 

The Hum Hum was designed using a mechanical hand that dips and feeds gamers while they play. It is triggered by pedals to ‘ensure gamers never stay off their controls nor their snacks.’ Heinz says that future versions will recognise voice commands and face recognition.

Well, in some parts of Asia, they seemingly do care.

" However, sex with a minor under age 18 is a compoundable offense, regardless of consent."

[spidermike007]

I have heard of guys getting into major trouble here, for being found with underage gals. As an American, the laws in the US apply to all US passport holders, worldwide. Often the Thai cop will demand 100,000 baht, if she is 17, or one million baht, if 16 or under. You do not have it? You are turned over. Many guys end up on planes with an assistant DA dispatched from DC, in handcuffs, facing federal statutory rape charges. Unless you have millions to throw at a lawyer, you are looking at 10 years in a federal pen. And you will be on the sex offender list the rest of your life.

 

Many will dispute this. I have spoken to lawyers about it, and it is correct info. And the US government is over zealous about the underage thing. Not worth it. Always best to check if she looks really young. If she does not have ID, that is real trouble. Do not proceed.

 

The law changed in 2003, when the PROTECT Act was enacted. Prior to that, sex with minors abroad was covered by Customs statutes, which required proof that the US citizen left the US with the intent of having sex with persons under the age of 18 - something that was very difficult to prove. (It's also worth noting that both Jerry Lee and Elvis married teenagers. Laws in the US are peculiar in that many states allow marriage to someone below the age of consent, as long as their parents agree.)

 

Under the PROTECT Act, there is no need for the government to prove intent. If an American has sex with someone under age 18 while in a foreign country, that's a crime, period, even if that sex isn't against the law in the country where it took place.

Yes, BUT sex with a minor under 18 years of age is a compoundable offense, regardless of consent.

 

Compoundable just means you can pay off the parents.

‘age of consent’ specifically refers to the minimum age at which a person is considered legally competent to provide consent for engaging in sexual acts. in Thailand, if both consent its legal no compoundable offence is commited

I think the age of consent in Thailand is limited to consenting to other minors. 

15 consenting to 16, okay

15 consenting to 21, not so much

You really had to made out of stone to resist some young attractive things throwing themselves at you, i know i too, would have problems with it, against the law or not, pity though that his life now are ruined.

Umm it would be easy enough for me to take the 18 year old and reject everyone else. For this exact reason. He'd be in no trouble at all if he used his brains

Age of majority varies from country to country. In the UK it is 16, in the US it is 18 and in Thailand I believe it is 20.

The crime was removing the girl from her parents, not banging her. He would have been OK if she hadn't done a sleepover.
