george Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 Appeal Court cuts British paedophile BANGKOK: -- A Bangkok Appeal Court has reduced the sentence of a 26-year-old Briton jailed for paedophile offences from 42 years to 30 years in prison. Robert Wood had been found guilty by a lower criminal court of sexually abusing Thai boys and distributing photographs and videos of his sex acts with the minors for profit. The incidents had taken place in a Bangkok apartment over a period from August 2002 until January 2003. Wood reportedly confessed to the charges which helped reduce his sentence from a possible 63-year prison term to the 42 years imposed by the criminal court. Wood was accused of tricking at least eight teenage boys into performing sexual acts with him and his friends, who are still at large. In its ruling, the Appeal Court agreed that the 42-year jail term imposed on Wood was too harsh, and reduced it by 12 years. Through his translator, Wood said he would take his case further to the Supreme Court. --TNA 2005-03-02 Original story: http://www.thaivisa.com/index.php?514&back...urce&tt_news=92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richsilver Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 I'm surprised nobody commented on the headline. First thing that occurred to me: "cut" is slang for circumcise. I wondered why a court would be circumcising a paedophile? BTW, paedophile is not in my dictionary. I guess perhaps it's a British spelling. I've always seen it as pedophile.

Anyway, I don't see why such bestial members of any society should be a burden on the rest of us for any period of time, especially 30 yrs and even if he daily gets 'jumped' by some big hairy lag.

deliriousdogma Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 i am just glad they caught the sicko and stoped him ###### up the minds of more young people. uk prisons keep this type of criminal grouped to gether to try to prevent harm coming to them do thai prisons operate the same ? and why could he not be the one found in south east thailand cut to bits insted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qualtrough Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 OK. First let me say that I am not a pedophile of any persuasion, and I do not support their activities. Now that that is out of the way, here is my question: How do you 'trick' teenage boys into having sex with you? [Rhetorical question: not asking for pointers!] Although it has been some time since I was a teenage boy, it is difficult for me to imagine any circumstances under which I could have been 'tricked' into sex with a man. Perhaps that was just a face-saving phrase to cover for the fact that those boys more than likely were quite willing participants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Needed the money" is more close to the truth. Not that I know the circumstances of your upbringing, but I think it is very difficult from somebody from a welfare state to fully understand what it feels like to be miserably poor.

Peewee Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 Robert Wood sentenced to 30 years in Thailand and David Leach, his friend, was tried for similar offences in the UK. Anyone know if he has been sentenced yet? - bet he only gets a quarter of his mates punishment. Given these guys don't usually get cured - I think the Thai's have it right.

PvtDick Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 YeaWhat a stupid git, and for boys too... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Are you implying that pedophilia against girls is somehow less heinous than pedophilia against boys? Maybe you don't have any daughters, but perhaps you'd like to rethink this idiotic statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseacraft Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 I don't think it's possible for a pedophile to be "cured". I personally think that they should either be executed or stripped of their sexual components. They are the worst kind of human predator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English is a Germanic language with strong influences from Roman languages like Latin and French. These influences are mainly in the lexicon (number of words) and not in its grammatical features. Richard W may have more to say about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimreaper Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 More ammunition for Thaksin's clampdown on sex tourists. No wonder the Thai's have a negative view of farangs. Let's face it, they are such moral people and don't have paedophiles in their society (yeah right) Actually, I'm surprised this piece of s**t survived this long. Let's see if he makes to the Supreme Court hearing. Any bets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
