GAZZPA Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Robbery at nighttime? Does this carry a different tariff to robbery in the daytime? I know in the US & UK sometimes crimes such as burglary have stiffer penalties if they are done at night. Really? I am not doubting you, I just did not know that? Is it because of police overtime?

JohnThailandJohn Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Robbery at nighttime? Does this carry a different tariff to robbery in the daytime?I know in the US & UK sometimes crimes such as burglary have stiffer penalties if they are done at night. I thought daylight robbery was the more serious offence.Definitely night time. Not sure why but the only reason I can think of is that the chances of injury or loss of life is greater. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burglary#Nighttime_burglariesCan only guess but would assume the same logic is used with robbery here.

Benmart Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Robbery at nighttime? Does this carry a different tariff to robbery in the daytime? Perhaps it does. Crimes commited under certain circumstances can carry enhancements when it comes to sentencing and fines. Crimes commited against the elderly, mentally impaired, using a firearms, being gang related, etc. are examples. In this case and under Thai law, robberies commited at night may carry such an enhancement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know in the US & UK sometimes crimes such as burglary have stiffer penalties if they are done at night. Really? I am not doubting you, I just did not know that? Is it because of police overtime? Please see #35. From my experience, overtime/crimes commited at night have nothing to do with enhanced penalties. My experience is from two western states in the USA. It does indicate that I know-all-see-all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkidlad Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 but said he used a fake handgun, which police later found during a search of his room. no problem then But he also said he stole the money for 'leisure'. Silly boy. Should have said it was for a temple donation. He could have had his suspended sentence halved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldnguy Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 That's a special kind of dumb. So..if a murderer gets less than 10 years, an armed robber should get what??? 1 week in a health farm? It's only a farang afterall At least it's better than the UK. some murderers get out of prison in 3 years in UK. Madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeegator Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 From the land of every thing fake, we bring you a robbery with a fake gun, I wonder if he had a fake drivers licnace and was driving a fake taxi... It wasn't a fake gun, it is a gun,probably a BB gun or some such thing. The stupid part is that for his dumb act he got B3000 and arrested. He might as well have used a large banana painted black. Total banker.. "It wasn't a fake gun,..." Apparently it was not a real gun, unless you've examined it and know different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rametindallas Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Tell all your friends this one simple trick to avoid being a victim of a taxi driver. As soon as you get in the taxi, call a friend (or pretend to call a friend) and, speaking loudly enough for the driver to hear you, report that you are in cab number XXXXX and that you will call them back when you arrive at your destination. My 'wife' does this every time and never gets any trouble from drivers; not even rude remarks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So doubtless you'll be reporting that alleged incident to the police then? "Hope you got KY boy going to need it in Remand. They going to love you long time and nightly." The uninformed, "aren't I witty", urban myth of the remand prison rears it's ugly head again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaiVisa doesn't make the reports or conduct investigations, how could it be expected to follow-up? TV can only re-publish what is reported elsewhere, presumably.
