Popular Post Baerboxer Posted December 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2013 Looks like he will not return until the statute of limitations has expired. He may of course be in and out of Thailand "incognito". No attempt at extradition. Shows the state of law enforcement, justice and respect for law that exists in Thailand. Interesting that these days the international press aren't interested either. The power of a major brand and enormous wealth. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoli Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 He did pay for the funeral, and a cash payout to his family. I am not stating this is enough, just trying to answer the OP's question. Hopefully some justice will come out of this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.m afraid you are "right on the money" the family spends too much money around the world for the media to take it on and report the case. What is their slogan, "Red Bull Gives You Wings To Fly." and this (oops thought I had best change what I called him, lets say) this Fine Upstanding Young Gentleman, seems to have Flown out of town.

ezzra Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 With no shortage on funds, he's no doubt in a sunny place biding his time, sticking the authorities in Thailand with the horn on the (red) bull...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colabamumbai Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The income $ = is the outcome. He paid 300,000 Baht to the family, end of story. I would have refused the money and demanded 25 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docno Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I wonder if this family is among the elite who wants to get rid of Thaksin because he skipped town to avoid jail. THIS family ARE the Elite ... and so ARE the THAKSIN CLAN ...... You clown !! So this is why so many of his brethren (or the paid help - wouldn't want water cannon to mess the quaff) are marching in the streets to bring down the democratically elected gov't of Thaksin's sister?

Docno Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Last thing I heard, he was in Singapore for treatment of influenza he contracted during a business trip (because you know, if you catch a flu, it makes complete sense to fly first class to Singapore for 'treatment'). That, and he attended the F1 race there. Maybe he's still recuperating from the sniffles down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The power of a major brand and enormous wealth. Is there a statue of limitations on his crime. do they have an extradition treaty with Singapore. I believe that is where he is at. They obviousley don't have one with Dubai or Hong Kong. Even if they did are they not limited to certain crimes. A death is a serious thing but this is still a traffic violation. Why would the international press bee interested in it. there are far more interesting things in the world than months old news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When have you even seen a Thai police office pull over an expensive car, simple they don't they are scared of the wealthy people. The police were so angry at this that an officer went straight round to his family home not to arreast him but rather figure out a way of getting him off the hook. I mean this should have been a pretty simple case but the set backs keep coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post falangadang Posted December 5, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2013 Seems he's getting off with this. He did pay for the funeral and something to the family ( 3.5M bht a mere pittance to a billion dollar empire heir,.. IMHO should have been 5 times more at least). There are two types of justice in this world (and in particular in LOS) 1) Justice,- only available to those that can afford it. 2) Injustice,- available to everyone that can't afford it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubby johnson Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 He's likely bribed a few people to slip back into the country incognito, back livin' the high life again. Whatever happened to the Honda girl (killed/injured a van full of people whilst texting) and the Mercedes rich kid (lost his temper and ploughed into passengers waiting at a bus stop) ?

Whatever happened to the Honda girl (killed/injured a van full of people whilst texting) and the Mercedes rich kid (lost his temper and ploughed into passengers waiting at a bus stop) ? In response to the first part, I assume he's back home, after passing through immigration, passport in hand. To answer the follow up question, The "Honda girl" got off with probation, while it was determined that the "Mercedes rick kid" has a disorder that causes him to "lose control while under stress". He was cut free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt1591 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Why doesn't Red Bull Boy simply show that he loses control when coked up and drunk. Therefore, how can he possibly be held responsible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrerakiss Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I may be wrong, but I thought he had only been charged with speeding. The statute of limitations on that expires after one year and that deadline passed while he was in Singapore receiving medical treatment. The family of the deceased were paid off as is normal. Cash in hand is more helpful to them than an improbable attempt to get justice. So as far as I know, he has no outstanding warrants on him and can carry on as usual.
