[floriamo]

hope he will stay in jail, here or there.....

[tragickingdom]

If this guy is 32 than I eat my shoes. It is amazing that all these guys calmly pose for pictures even in stupid shirts. What is wrong with them?

Extradition will proceed as soon as the residue of the "$40K a month" has been extracted.

Erm... that was 40K Baht per month, according to the op.

Not exactly living the high life in Thailand then.

He definitely looks older than 32.

anyone knows how much it costs to have sunglasses or a hood over your head on these photos? if you use your hand to cover your face, is that cheaper?

[jimky]

Probably has a Thai wife. 40,000 baht is the income requirement for an extension of stay.

[KRS1]

Man that is not the same guy, no way...

[Just1Voice]

I'm 64 and look younger than he does!

And in related news, the TAT announce that Thailand is the top destination-of-choice, in a survey of criminals & ne'er-do-wells world-wide, with arrivals up 7.3% this year ...

And America & Europe announced they are totally incapable of restricting the movement of criminals through their porous borders, so must rely on Thai police to do their police work for them.

I'm 68 and I look way older than that guy!

-From our "Who Cares?" files.

Thailand seems to be one of the most favourite places for criminals to hide.

Are you reading news outlets from around the world on a regular basis to make this presumption... or just chiming in through a narrow guage...?

The FBI says Miller then smuggled heroin with the True Asian Pride gang, earning as much as US$600,000 (Bt18.6 million) per week. Miller has not worked since fleeing to Thailand, but has received Bt40,000 a month from "a friend", say police.

Miller was initially charged with an unauthorised stay in the Kingdom.

Let him pay for his overstay and deport him to Laos.-

I guess that's what dealing drugs will do to ya'.

[khaowong1]

From his drivers license photo, I could never have picked him out in a crowd unless I could see his tattoo's. Let's see if he has enough money to bribe his way out of jail and does a runner to Cambodia. From the tattoo's, I would say he's probably one of the vetrano's of La Eme. I read that they are the largest drug gang in the US now.

If this guy has that much money stashed away somewhere I'm sure the BIB are considering all the opportunities that have landed in their lap ... probably discussing with him now his cell decorations and options for his next destination.

is this a Youtube video they posted?

[BanTamo]

Din Daeng must have been such a paradise. But all good things must come to an end. Bummer dood.

[Joe Mamma]

Good roundup. Would love to see more of these scoundrels punished and deported for good!

from Nations article:

-- The Nation 2013-06-12

In the video there are two suspects the one on the right is the 32 year old suspect, the one on the left and pictured in the main photo is the 45 year Myanmar suspect.

Just a little bit confusing by The Nation putting up the Myanmar suspects picture with details of a 32 year old US suspect.
