What T.F...   has white socks got to do with any of this ???...    some posters once again just highlight what unhinged oddballs they are.

 

It was mentioned in the article.

If you have issue with this, you should take it up with the OP.

 

Plenty of points in the article: 

 

- The alarm was raised at around 11.45 after repeated attempts by hotel staff to contact the guest

 

- Officers from Patong Police Station found the man lying face down on the bed and dressed, wearing a black short-sleeved T-shirt, black shorts and white socks.

 

- Police confirmed there were no visible signs of injury or disturbance inside the room.

 

- A preliminary examination by a forensic doctor found no evidence of physical trauma. 

 

- Investigators stated there appears no obvious suspicious circumstances at this stage.

 

- Staff said the tourist kept to himself and was not seen leaving the premises in the hours before his death.

 

- The body has been sent for a full toxicology report.

 

 

Of all the things you could have commented on, it was the 'white socks' that you chose to go with - very odd...

It's a crime scene, so officers who specialise in different departments have to attend the scene to try to determine what happened and if there is any evidence to be kept for further investigation, before the deceased can be moved.

As for the AN Pathology department goes, let’s keep free-speech alive. 

Nothing against free speech. You made a comment that I thought misplaced, gave a sarcastic response (that you failed to have picked up on) and you have had your right of reply. 
where have I violated your god given rights under the (pick a number) amendment?

but dwell on this……your post might have been read by someone with an attachment to the deceased, and doesn’t really appreciate someone sat on his fat arsenal, waxing non-lyrical about their demise without a shred of insight, apart from a thought spawned by a surfeit of Chang. 

there’s a bit more of the free speech that you hold so dearly

George A is impressive in the capacity to provide doom and gloom with the potential for endless speculation !

Your comments contribute nothing either... some more free speech
