Crime Thai Singer Sek Loso Sentenced to 3 Years Without Parole
I said, exactly, "Nice guy, very approachable, (forget about his later transgressions), and definitely very talented." Emphasis added. Get it now? He was nice, friendly and approachable on the occasions I met him. His future transgressions were not included in that summing up. Got it, now? Do you need a hand climbing down off that horse? -

Report Ex-Arsenal Star Jay Emmanuel-Thomas admits role in £600K Thai Drug Smuggling Plot
Picture courtesy of Sky News In a dramatic revelation, former Arsenal wonderkid Jay Emmanuel-Thomas has owned up to his role in a plan to smuggle £600,000 worth of cannabis from Thailand to the UK. The ex-youth international was apprehended after authorities discovered 60 kilogrammes of the drug concealed within four suitcases at London Stansted Airport. The arrest was the culmination of an extensive investigation by the National Crime Agency (NCA), which revealed that Emmanuel-Thomas, now 34, acted as a crucial middleman in a network connecting criminal syndicates in Thailand and the UK. As part of the scheme, he duped his then-girlfriend, Yasmin Piotrowska, aged 33, and her 28-year-old friend, Rosie Rowland, into unknowingly transporting the illicit goods. Enticed by the promise of an all-expenses-paid holiday to Thailand and a payment of £2,500, the two women believed they were aiding in the transport of gold rather than drugs. However, upon their return to the UK in September 2024, they were intercepted by Border Force officials, who had been alerted of the operation. The discovery of cannabis within their luggage led to their immediate arrest at Stansted. Nonetheless, an analysis of Emmanuel-Thomas’s phone revealed that the women were innocent pawns in the plot, resulting in the charges against them being dropped. Overcome with relief, Piotrowska and Rowland were seen weeping as they were released from the dock. Emmanuel-Thomas was swiftly expelled from his Scottish team, Greenock Morton, following the charges. The former striker had once graced the field alongside stars like Cesc Fàbregas and Robin van Persie, making five senior appearances for Arsenal before subsequent stints at Ipswich, Bristol City, QPR, MK Dons, and even a Thai club, PTT Rayong. Facing potential imprisonment of up to 14 years, Emmanuel-Thomas’s actions starkly contrast with the promising career he once had. As he awaits sentencing at Chelmsford Crown Court, the lifting of a reporting ban on May 21 has brought widespread attention to the case. Prosecutor David Josse KC hailed the "very thorough investigation" by the NCA that led to the bust, while Senior NCA Investigator David Philips warned of the high risks involved in such criminal activities, stressing the high stakes and severe penalties that follow. As Emmanuel-Thomas now grapples with the consequences of his choices, this incident serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of becoming entangled in criminal enterprises. Instead of the glory found on the football field, he is now faced with the grim prospect of a lengthy prison sentence, a poignant reminder of the life-altering consequences of crime.
