AndyAndyAndy Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Poor guy. Now he gets transfered to a different police station as an punishment and will have to commute 15 minutes longer to the work every morning. He should think before pulling the trigger! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunpeer Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 3 hours ago, Gecko123 said: Need to read full article. First three paragraphs make it sound like the cop summarily executed the daughter's boyfriend, but there was an altercation immediately before the shooting, allegedly initiated by the boyfriend. still no reason to shoot him dead...

1duckyboy Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Maybe Ann said to her boyfriend, "That's not my father." and the boyfriend felt he was protecting her from a kidnapping or harm. A shame he brought a knife to a gunfight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradiston Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) But if today had been tomorrow, you'd be sitting in the car behind the Senior Sergeant Major and none of this would have happened. If! I think this is a gay love triangle. Sarge was in love with the guy with the knife, and Ann was a transvestite caught in the middle (if you'll forgive the pun). Sarge, in a fit of jealous rage, wasted his lover, then err, sorry I seem to have lost the plot. Can anyone take over?

If he was asked to intervene by the girl's father, it would have been his business. And it certainly does NOT give the policeman the right to draw his gun and kill someone. It DOES give him the right to self-defence if he considered that his life was in danger! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That depends what you believe of the story... Was he [The Policeman] there with his friend, who was the father of Ann ?... Was Ann being mistreated and needed help from her father and a Policeman ?... or nothing like that at all... A lot of unknowns here... too many to start claiming one or the other instigated the confrontation - its just a very poorly written report that has us arguing based on some thin assumptions from poor information from a poor translation of what was originally a very poorly written low on info article in Thai.

We're two men worried for the safety of the daughter and needed to press on ? Was the driver of the car even the father of the girls (Ann) or someone else who just claimed to be the father ?

BenStark Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 12 hours ago, bbko said: From the link in the op the son threw a glass bottle and brandished a knife. It wasn't an unprovoked shooting. Sounds to me like the food delivery driver living at his mom's house threw a temper tantrum and started violence. The mother informed her son and Ann, who were on the second floor of the house, about the visitors, provoking her son’s anger. He hurled a glass bottle at the sedan from the second-floor window and exited the house brandishing a knife. The policeman had no business to be there, it is not his daughter. Nobody here knows what previously happened, him showing up there was for the son probably the drip that made the bucket overflow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what was Sergeant Pae doing there? Neither of these 2 people had any reason to be there at all unless the mother's story, that they disapproved of the relationship, holds true. In which case, what the heck did it have to do with them? Seems they weren't related to Ann in any way. So yes, gay man murders his lover out of jealousy. Life without parole. Next.

4MyEgo Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 17 hours ago, richard_smith237 said: How do you know none of them is the father of the Girl friend [Ann] - the article is extremely vague about this point. I would love to know how old Ann is, one would assume she is under 20 if the father wanted her back home, as under 20 they are still class as a kid here, so I'm lead to believe. An unfortunate ending for the lad, his life over at 25, we should all keep our anger under control, especially then the cops show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
