What's your basis for your assertion that bail is out of the question for similar incidents fpr other people?

Its the norm when there is overwhelming evidence and the forthcoming sentence is definitely incarceration.  In addition, most 'ordinary' Thai's couldn't put up 600K.

Not Thai ethnicity certainly. 

I am simply going by what my Thai friend said when they told me about this incident.

No, it is not the norm, the opportunity for bail is the norm.

 

"In addition, most 'ordinary' Thai's couldn't put up 600K".

The "ordinary" Thais, who may not be a flight risk, probably would not have to put up B600k.

I'm not going to get into an argument with you about this - I've seen how 'ordinary' Thais are sometimes treated by the Thai legal system - that's enough for me to know that money talks - it even makes charges go away.

And we all know how successful that is generally.

Who do you have in mind that was in that situation, i.e. banned from leaving but left anyway?

paying off the victim’s family not to pursue. Thai justice continues.

Why not if that is the way that the legal system can work here and if both parties are in agreement?

Why should his uninvolved, innocent family be punished with that irrational penalty?

Justice for the widow

How could the injustice of punishing a family, that were not involved in this incident in any way, be "justice for the widow"?   Does that happen in your country or do you just think that it should apply here?

Are there no reporting restrictions?

No "alleged "

Prominent themes in Hindu beliefs include karma (action, intent and consequences),

 

In the land of the Buddha, this will require quite a few "Wai's", signified on top of many brown envelopes....
