What is your point? Why mention that this is the 2nd Brit this month?

Are you implying that all Brits are child molesters?

You know that there are child molesters of all races and creeds, do you?

There are black child molesters. Would you dare imply that all blacks are child molesters?

There might be fiddlers from all countries but with some it is much more prevalant.

And lets face it, the Brits come up more for this sort of thing in Thailand than from any other country.

Famously Gary Glitter and Jimmy saville got away with it for decades.

It is what it is.

 

I assume by your defensive tone that you are a Brit yourself. 

Maybe all this "innocent until proven guilty" "she wasnt really a child, she was 16" narrative plays into why such a high number of Brits are caught doing this sort of stuff. Always excuses.

He wasnt the first and unfortunately wont be the last.

10 years have passed. He has been arrested before and nothing happened again. So assumably this guy had a good scare and learned a lesson. Why make a big deal about this again? She was 16 already ...

These filthy perverts never change.

Assumably he got smarter at avoiding being detected.

 

Because it it is illegal, and there is a reason for it being illegal.

What a strange story and what strange comments. How strange?

This reaction scares me more than the whole incident. You must be very frustrated about something  ...

Lock him up and throw away the keys.

Better yet, throw him in a jail house full of Katheoy's and let them do jailhouse justice to him.

It's predators like him that make a bad name for good foreigner teachers....

 

 

16yo is legal age in many countries. Throw away the keys? He committed a crime. He didnt molest 4yos or kill 10 people.

 

Humans should own their decisions 15yo+. Kids are kissing each other age 10+.

 

And no it's not something I would do so don't respond with creepy stuff.

 

The laws on these things vary. Really it's strange that in one country no crime whilst in another a crime.

This is not a straight forward case of sexual abduction of a minor. Any man taking a younger lady as a companion  take heed. 

 

 

There is ot SEXUAL ANYTHING READ THE REPORT.

 

WHAT IS CONSIDERED OBSCENE PURPOSES.

If he took pictures of her in a sexy pose or showing a bit of breast or nipple it is possibly obscene.

 

Therefore let me surmise that the following is possible.  

 

The girl likes the teacher.  We all know that the favourite pastime of Thai teens is selfies or taking pictures of how beautiful they are.  The teacher and student go to dinner or for a walk, and he takes pictures of her looking sexy.  Nothing untoward, but definitely not the pics that Mom or Dad would want.  Just pics that a Thai teen would want to have taken.

 

Mom and Dad see pics and blow a gasket.  Go to the police and want him thrown in jail without the key.  Police ask the appropriate questions and the best they can come up with is 

"taking away a minor aged more than 15-years-old but not more than 18-years-old from her parents or guardian without proper reason for obscene purposes"

 

Not high on the scale and really not something they are going to rush to solve.

 

School, in the meantime, does not need Dad and Mom going off the deep end, so they slap him on the hand and tell him he screwed up, and they have to let him go.

 

Did the teacher do anything LEGALLY WRONG?  NO

 

Did the girl do anything she should be ashamed of?  no

 

Can anyone else see the Good Moral Thai MOM and DAD going off the deep end?  YES

 

 

Sorry but to those that want him hanged and quarterd I think you need to read the rules.

 

He did a nice (BUT BONEHEAD) thing that got him fired.

Probably a money grab.

Years ago a British pedo was also caught in the IS my sister was studying at. The time in the late 90s and early 2000 when I was in secondary, there were about 5 British pedophiles caught from different schools. Why is it often British though? No hate and all as I had brilliant British teachers too. I'm just curious that most of the pedophiles caught here are British.

Where does it say that he was a Pedophile??????

[Cabradelmar]

Teacher's diddling their Thai students seems to be a national pastime.

[zhounan]

Unfortunately, the teaching job is very attractive to pedophiles, pederasts and perverts because you are constantly in contact with youth.

Because there's a disproportionate number of teachers hailing from the British Isles?

Not another peado. God, there must be tons of them here.. 😞

There are many teachers who are  Americans, Canadians, Australians and South Africans as well.

Thailand wants NATIVE English speaking teachers for the best education.

Yes - there are probably lots more Brits teaching in Thailand than other nationalities.

Not sure what 'filthy perverts' you are on about.

It looks like a young 16 year old foreign girl fell in love with her teacher. Not unusual.

Went back to his place a number of times and had a passionate time with him.

Parents found out and some 10 years later, want him prosecuted for 'taking her from her parents without their permission'.

Defintely not. The school nearest me has South Africans, New Zealanders and Fillipinos and Americans. No Brits

And has never had a problem with these teachers.

If I owned a school i wouldnt employ Brit males.

[Callmeishmael]

While I wouldn't in any way defend this fellow's actions, there is a world of difference between molesting a 16 year old and molesting an 8 year old.

 

I think that some of the 'cut off his balls' brigade have lost sight of this.

He is being accused of taking away a minor aged more than 15-years-old but not more than 18-years-old from her parents or guardian without proper reason for obscene purposes. He was taken back to the Chalong Police Station in Phuket.

If that was the case, then he obviously should be punished.

 

But then there are all those Thai teenagers who work in bars because their families want money. And the families seem to be comfortable when their daughters have everyday sex with different guys - as long as the money flows.

But then, maybe the daughter decides she wants to stay only with one guy and have only sex with one guy. And maybe that one guy does not want to give lots of money to the family. And then that is obviously suddenly a big problem. Give us money or we go to the police because you have sex with our innocent daughter...

Unfortunately, that seems to happen often in Thailand.

 

But back to the case: If the guy is guilty, then punish him.

An incident on two occasions which happened nearly 10 years ago in Thailand. The accused has continued to live in Thailand, has been reporting to Immigration every 90 days for 10 years so not difficult to find him on a computer. I am not sure why it takes 4 officers to arrest him or hold a press conference..

Hardly breaking news.

But he's BRITISH! There has been a distinct dearth of articles re the "Bad Boys of Europe" recently - catch up time!!!

Your example of one is not a great cross selection of teachers in Thailand.

The International schools near me (3) employ almost only Brits.

So what does that prove?

Nothing.

All these British teachers haven't helped as Thai students still ranked at/near the bottom in regional English testing scores....

Maybe because they are not all native English speakers. I am not sure that American/English counts. 😉

Errr... the age thing wasn't illegal until December, 1996. I remember the before times very well. Used to be a lot of 16 and 17 year olds in the Thermae. Even the occasional 14 year old. I'm not so sure about removing a minor from her guardians, but I imagine they're very well-to-do. I don't expect we'll ever hear the facts of the case, nor its outcome in the courts, nor the reason they decided to prosecute now.
