Moo Ham gets suspended jail term

The Appeals Court Tuesday sentenced a young driver from a wealthy family to two years' suspended jail term for crashing into a group of bus passengers and killing one of them.

The Phra Khanong Provincial Court found that Kanpitak Patchimsawat, 25, had a mental problem that reduced his ability to control himself while under stress. It was found that the victim was killed while the defendant could not control himself.

He was initially sentenced to three years in jail, but the court later reduced the jail term to two years and one month.

The court decided to suspend the penalty for two years and required the defendant to report to probation officials every three months over that period. The defendant also was asked to have his mental problem treated.

BANGKOK: -- Phrakanong Court on Friday sentenced Kanpitak Pachimsawas, 21, son of former Miss Thailand, to 15 years and two months in jail on charges of premeditated-murder due to his aggressive driving which killed one and injured three others.

The penalty was reduced to 10 years and one month as the defendant had already paid some compensation to the injured.

Police are preparing to press a premeditated-murder charge against a 20-year-old man who swerved his Mercedes-Benz car into a crowd of people on a footpath in Bangkok shortly after he attacked a bus driver with a rock on Wednesday night.

The incident critically injured three people, one of whom died yesterday.

Appalling decision.

Spoilt brat turned dysfunctional young adult flies into a rage and chases a minibus for a considerable distance forcing the minibus to ask the passengers to get off and then he rams into the disembarking passengers, killing one and severely injuring others.

Very rich family with high-level police as family members. No jail time. Feudal society.

So you stay for what.

The defendant's sentence went from "15 years and two months in jail on charges of premeditated-murder" reduced to zero time in jail on a 2 year suspended sentence.

Wow, did someone get a Merc 500 ?

Compensation paid was not enough to pay for a Mercedes:

Kanpitak, son of Kun-anek and Savinee; former Miss Thailand, to pay compensation to Sangwan Srihawong, for Bt800,000.

Disgusting. If we had any doubts that there is no justice in Thailand, as if we needed proof, here it is.

For those who are not familiar with the case, this "man" deliberately drove his car into a bus stop full of people because he was pissed with a bus driver who scratched his precious frigging mercedes. Convicted of pre-meditated murder, he has not and will not spend a single day in jail.

Shame Thailand, shame.

But as we know, money talks, AND, we do NOT know about ALL money paid out and to whom. sad.png

Well, if the waiting time at the probation officials are the same as the 90 days report in CM, he got what he deserved.

One day in the future, this crime will not be able to go unpunished ... I hope that 'one day' will come sooner rather then later ... ermm.gif

As do I. But it feel it will be later... much, much later. Thailand is in a severe downward spiral with no signs of slowing.

Disgusting. He may have escaped prison, but i pray he and his parents are tormented by their guilty conscience for the rest of their lives and society shuns them.

I serously doubt they even have a conscience, or know what guilt is.

As for society shunning them... highly unlikely, as Thailand prays to the altar of the almighty Baht.

And is this mentally unstable person still permitted to drive a car or has his license been revoked?

I also noticed how many hi-so types seem to be "mentally unstable" in this country (or perhaps claim to be so they never have to face the music). Is this a cultural thing? Genetic, perhaps? Or just another ugly manifestation of 'Thainess'?

As usual, the mind boggles.
