Galong Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Of course if a foreigner commits a crime against a Thai our boys in brown will follow-up. What about the cop who committed premeditated murder of the two Brits in Kanchanaburi? Has that case been dropped or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you break a law in a country which has welcomed you as a guest, you should be subject to their laws and punishments with no favouritism......” I agree 100% with the above statement. However, in reality it does not work out this way in Thailand and in many other countries. “Favouritism” is the bases of success of “the powers that be” in Thai Society, and often it is used in an unjust way…. and you don’t have to read “in between the lines” when you browse through the Nation or Bangkok Post, to notice this.

manutoo Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 this guy doesn't look like an "happy killer". What about the facts about the murder ? Was it a passionate crime ? Maybe he hit without intention to kill... On the pic, he really looks to be in pain... I pity him. And all the bloodthirsty avengers here make me sick. I hope this guy will get Justice. (life sentence would be probably painful enough if he has real remorse) If someone kills me, there's no need to kill him. It wouldn't make me come back, or give me better sleep in my death. And no need to say the compassion I feel for the victim, her family, and her friends. I'm pretty sure they don't read this forum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Som Nam Na Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 I he is indeed guilty then I have no compassion. but why is it they can get him so quick when they don't even bother with the so-called suicides or ....If he had left her in the hotel room with some asprin and in a strange position, would they still look for him?

a man with a plan Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 I know it sounds like a tacky question but how did the thai woman die? If she was beaten or strangled to death then yes the mutha deserves to fry. But what if it was something more accidental and after that he panicked? Maybe he thought 'Oh $h!+, no one will believe this and I'm gonna get slaughtered; my best bet is to leg it' Not that I would forgive him but I'm just curious as to how bad he was.

Lars Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 The guy said in an interview(swedish newspaper)that he picked her up,they went to his hotel room and in to the shower together.For some reason they started shoving eachother,she fell and broke a glass(wall?),got hold of a glass shard and stabbed him in the foot.Guy panicked and could only think of making her stop fighting so he got hold of her head and started banging her head on the tiled floor.When she stopped moving he realized she was dead. All of the above is straight from the newspaper article,supposedly the guy's own words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmiuc Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 International Law dictates that at the request of a person who committed the felony, can be extradited to his/her own country to face the charges. In most cases, the sentance will not become heavy, because it would require heavy proof from the persons surrounding the events. And Thais are not given into this sort of presure. Yes, the just should be served, but we live in an unjust world/societyl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion76 Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 (edited) Not trying to justify his actions but I can imagine getting into a scuffle with a Pattaya bargirl myself, and if it was in the bathroom.... well people even die alone slipping on the tiles and slamming their head on the sink on the way down. I don't think I'd stick around for the cops to show up either. It does not make sense for a tourist to take a bargirl to his own hotel room registered under his own name to commit pre-meditated murder, more likely a fight that got out of hand. Inexcusable but somewhat understandable. Guilty or not his life is ruined already, Thai prison is no joke. No need to wish him worse than he's already got.

meds Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 As most Swedes I´m not keen of the idea of death penalty or inhumane conditions in prisons. But if the Swede suspected for murder is convicted for it, I really hope he will be judged equally as if he would have been a native - meaning that I hope the trial will be just, but also that he won´t get away easier because of nationality (due to foreign relations or something... for example since Sweden, has in comparison to its size, been rather generous with financial aid after the catastrophe...). The last thing we wish to see is a lack of trust, or a increasing hostility towards westerners due to one persons ill behaviuor. So, would he be senteced to a bizarre imprisonment or perhaps even death, too bad - but also, don´t ######ing kill people and suit yourself if you do.

Lars Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 According to another swedish newspaper he was interrogated for a couple of hours yesterday and the reporter writes that the guy admitted to have killed her:"We were in the shower together,I took a bottle and hit her in the head,after that I blacked out". He also says that he turned himself in to get rid of the nightmares he's been having since the killing:"She haunts me in my dreams". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
