What Ever Happened To..............

[MisterMan]

1. What ever happened to the British guy who killed Curry the autisitc Nepalese son of his girlfriend?

is he still in jail? Did he pay his way out?

2. How about the the British guy who murdered his British girlfriend?

3. How about the dead guy they just found in Nai Harn?

4. How about the 2 boys who slashed the throat of a baby and killed and and were later released?

(ok hard to follow up)

5. how about the thugs that just robbed the grandmother?

6. The government officials who stole Tsunami money out of the safe at city hall?

7. The Scandinavian orphanage charged with fraud?

Just a few things I wonder about......

Oh I forgot about those too!

[starkey_rich]

What ever happened to the

Phuket police guy who was accused of stealing Tsunami funds and

the guy who ran a red light knocking the old guy off his bike then beat him up

[JUDAS]

Whatever happened to the farang who drowned a guy in the klong who had shot his pregnant wife? If I remember correctly the wife didn't die but was her unborn child ok? Did the farang ever face any charges? he certainly shouldn't have.

[wileycoyote]

Whatever happened on the Kra Canal story ?

Is it going ahead ?

Many years ago Roger from the Alice bar in Patong was brutally murdered. I believe his wife & accomplices were found guilty but the wife today walks free. Does anyone know if this is true?

[83110pkt]

there definately are a lot of stories that are never followed up. It would be great to know bad guys were put away and and how long they got etc! ...

[saneroad]

Phuketwan posted a followup on some of the cases this morning . . .

Degioanni - accused going to court this week

12-yr-old Bang Tao boy in internet shop - case proceeding, shooter still in custody

Stuart - still under investigation

Khun Kit, Farang restaurant - alleged hitman named but still at large

Excellent post, MM.

Does the Phuket Gazette diarise their stories for follow-up? I suspect not. If no news is forthcoming when the journos do their court and police station rounds, I daresay there is little or no other vehicle to ensure follow-up.

If the PG does not diarise (continuously) their stories for follow-up at a reasonable time after the event, will it consider doing so? If there is nothing to report, cannot the PG advise its readers that 'investigations have stalled', 'no comment is forthcoming', efforts are continuing', etc, in respect of a specific incident. This could be at a landmark time after the event (3/6/12 months later, depending upon the event in question). This would at least provide the opportunity for a re-diarising and perhaps even an opportunity to ask the Governor's reaction to any perceived lack of activity. I'm sure this could be achieved diplomatically (without putting the police/court system off side) and may also apply some pressure where police activity has been found to be wanting. More to the point, it would keep its readers informed. After all, isn't the purpose of reporting supposed to be related to the public's 'right to know'?

[LivinginKata]

Anyone ever thought about sending the PG an email about old cases/stories. Maybe that would get them interested in old case updates from time to time ??

Not sure if this should be here & is really a bit of nostalgia but whatever happened to Patong? Bangla was a two way dirt road, you could count the number of katoeys on one hand, after 2am the Kangaroo bar was a shining beacon in an otherwise fairly dark Bangla with revellers spilling out on to the road, tuks tuks were 10 Baht anywhere in Patong (I even had one come back & collect his fare the next day when I spent my last Baht at the bar).

Did we ever get closure on the Dive Asia boat that capsized in the middle of the night.  Anyone actually get charged for anything?

[MisterMan]

1. The dead body found off Phi Phi right before the 2 girls died

2. The unidentified dead body found off Nai Harn

Or has it just become common place to have dead bodies floating around Phuket?

[kurnell]

What about the girl that had her arm chopped off by the copper?

[Patong Bob]

I've posted before here, but in the Alice Bar murder, Alice and two young Thai men were charged with the murder.

I don't know what happened to the men, but Alice was soon seen walking the streets again......and the Police now owned the Alice Bar (where Scruffy Murphy's is now.) TIT.

[MisterMan]

What about the dog pound? Do they still have a vet?
