Cabradelmar Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 As an ex-navy seal 😉 I'm doubtful this man is anything but a puffed up doofus. Even of he was a military contractor when he was 22 year old (who then obviously washed out early), he's lived here for 22 years and should know better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool Lou Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 13 hours ago, Classic Ray said: I’m more concerned that no action was taken in respect of his admitted drink driving, which he used as his excuse for the assault. He wasn't caught drink driving, so how could any action be taken? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool Lou Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 (edited) 2 hours ago, PingRoundTheWorld said: why is the police not pursuing charges for drunk driving? or they cannot for some weird legal reason? Was he caught driving drunk by the police? If I tell a police officer that I was driving last night or last week or whenever, pissed as a newt, will I be prosecuted? Of course, I won't be, as I wasn't observed driving pissed. Edited May 27 by Liverpool Lou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Bull Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 When I was a young fellow in the UK there was a mercenary used to drink in the local pub. He was quiet always wore a suit and tie only drank scotch and had one of those moustaches with pointy ends. he was a friendly guy but used to sit at the end of the bar by himself. He would disappear for a couple of months at a time and return with a sun tan. He never talked about his job most people never knew he was a mercenary.

Strange, never seen this happen in Thailand before, maybe I should get out and around more? Fuel filler door, operated from the cabin. The attendant asked him to open it, the guy paid no attention, kept talking on his phone (or pretending to do it), then driving away from the pump. Was covered a dozen times here.

As long as it's "probably" against "probably" here's my two cents (and trust me I talk from some knowledge on the matter): In cases with as much publicity as in this one IB dumps their "interpreter/translator" help without as much of a how do you do. The guy would find himself with a cancelled visa the next day. Yet he's gone away with what should be criminal charges and imminent deportation. (Not to mention these guys don't drunk-brag "I'm the tor mor", no. Too stupid even for a Brit.) No good sir, we're dealing with a Snitch here. Good old snitch, inflated to the point of self-explosion yet still too valuable for the IB to be dumped 😂 Edited May 27 by GaryPustynskiy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good old snitch, inflated to the point of self-explosion yet still too valuable for the IB to be dumped A slight possibility, not in any way a probability, no decent "snitch" would risk exposing himself that way. From the way that you, sneeringly, refer to him as "a snitch", I'm surmising that you must be in the dubious position to be at risk from "snitches", "inflating yourself to the point of self-explosion" (What?).

ChipButty Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 The UAE is a hub for mercenaries in Africa and the Middle East. Now the Emirates want their own version of the French Foreign Legion.

Bundooman Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 This guy is 44. He's been in Thailand for 22 years. and yet he was a 'mercenary' - at 22? Presuming that he joined the armed forces at 18, he was trained to be a mercenary? Very doubtful. He may have decided to become a mercenary, but his skills after 4 year's service would be very limited, surely. It would be very interesting to discover where he was employed in such a job, wouldn't it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good old snitch, inflated to the point of self-explosion yet still too valuable for the IB to be dumped 😂 My immediate summation too There have been similar wannabees in the past (I recall a delusional running around with Pattaya Police some years back) They usually follow the same route, being fronted up as the farang agent provocateur in raids etc, general grass/informant which denigrates into their deluded belief that they hold actual sway/powers The 'do you know who I am/who I know' all fades to nothing - as here - when their egotistical outbursts sublimate into media exposure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
