Thai at Heart Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Judging by the Thai reaction to the idiotic judgment yesterday, i would consider he has been a little unlucky. Hopefully, he doesn't get away with a slap on the wrist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GentlemanJim Posted March 6, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted March 6, 2013 Well, by all accounts from the other thread with a similar storyline, this guy will get 15-20 years for sure, down graded on subsequent appeals over the next 4 years to an 18 month suspended sentence. I will care to wager anybody, +/- 6 mths on the final sentence. Thailand, Hub of Injustice. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomTao Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Lets hope this case is tried on the evidence and not on the size of the check book, justice is often depicted by a statue holding a set of scales in one hand, a sword in the other with a blindfold covering the eyes, not a bankbook in one hand, a wad of cash in the other and a pair of designer sunnies covering the eyes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DLock Posted March 6, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted March 6, 2013 What's the bet he is found to have some sort of mental or developmental condition as well.... ...such as Bi Polar, OCD, ADD, Aspergers, Autistic, Manic Depressive, Epileptic, Schizophrenic, Tourette's or is mildly retarded.

Wouldn't argue against that. Nor, I imagine, will the judge. There may be a few fall into that category, but I don't believe the family, who were paid 800K baht by the son of the models family will be able to sit back and put their feet up will they, nor will the family of the policeman in this case, who are rumoured to have been paid 3 Mill baht...about 2 years salary for a policeman with his untaxable 'extra's', and only 10% of the value of the car that mowed down their breadwinner, Son,husband and father.

Popular Post Fortunate1 Posted March 6, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted March 6, 2013 Don't let your expectations get too high. I reckon he will walk. After all, when dealing with the rich and powerful, the Thai justice system has a proud tradition to maintain - a tradition of failing to ensure that justice is done. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
