Yes, Thai-French or Dual Nationality

Thai-French. He may not have had French citizenship.

    Applies to the whole of Thailand, doesn't it? Add in the huge number who carry guns, many of whom would be willing to kill over the slightest thing.

  • Yep.    And if you meet Thong Lor police you're REALLY in trouble.

  • Young creep, probably killed  his main source of income.   R.I.P Frenchman.

"RIP" the Frenchman who, according to the OP, was such a drunk that is wife and son had to move out of their home to get away from him.

Indeed - mental instability in relatives of alcoholics is sadly the norm. He and the mother tried to escape it all. But the whole situation seems to have been completely chaotic and had both father and son in its grip. Domestic violence and murder is commonplace in such scenarios. Usually the alky kills his wife who wants to leave him - read all about it in ASEAN Now almost daily.

No, but with a French father he have the right to it, and that makes it just a formality. As he is a teen, he would most probably have gotten his second nationality automatically.

Perhaps. But it would have to be applied for and registered in some form. In a family like that with so much alcoholic chaos and hatred it is by no means a cert the father did so.

Why are you blaming the mother?

Gratitude?

Thonglor..... it seems to be a bad neighbourhood... unlicensed bars, gambling dens, criminals.. and most of them of higher ranked persons

One sentence says "Thong Lo", then the article goes on to say the crime actually happened in Phra Khanong, off Sukhumvit 71, Pridi (soi) 13.  Very "working class" area.  I lived opposite this soi for 20 years.
