Popular Post PiPiFFS Posted October 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 2, 2014 The trouble I have is that there isn't a convenient store that is what anyone would call close to the murder scene really. The AC bar is close. The In Touch bar is close etc but not the shop. It seems they are determined to pin this on anyone but a Thai. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mooner Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Collected DNA from 300 Burmese workers. Then find a discarded item bought from a convenience store which matches something near the crime scene what three Burmese bought and hey presto! Shouldn't there DNA match the cigarette but too? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post slipperx Posted October 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 2, 2014 Whatever happens it needs independent investigation by an international police force using labs in the UK to match DNA the UK authorities have from the returned bodies with any accused. The police here need to be checked and when the cover up is exposed to be prosecuted and jailed. I and everyone else including must Thais are sick to the teeth of the inept corrupt police and the perversion of justice that is the reality of the Thai justice system. Do it now!!!! 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post crazygreg44 Posted October 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 2, 2014 We all know that the Police will need a scapegoat they can blame for the murders, they will falsify the DNA probes just to be able to blame innocent, hapless Burmese for comitting a murder. Random Footage that turns up two weeks and half AFTER the murder ? Who do they think we are, believers of the unbelievable ? To the Police, go on, just do it, It is already a national shame and it will be in the press all over the world, and if they sue and death sentence three innocent poor migrant people, their blood will forever stick to the picture the world has of Thailand. This all is so sad, and so blatantly revealing the true mindset of the people involved. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KillingTime Posted October 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 2, 2014 This is a huge story in the UK and will be for a long time. The story of the murdered newly wed in South Africa got a one hour Panorama special devoted to it and this could easily go the same way. That would be devastating for the families who desperately need to move on, however i think this story is going to be pursued relentlessly until a believable conclusion has been reached. The Thai authorities would be well advised to bring in foreign (UK) help to solve the case. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OPG Posted October 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 2, 2014 On a serious note here...enough joking aside, if this is true and that is a big IF, I wouldn't believe the Thai Authorities now to save my life; I'd accept their outcome if ONLY a verifiable and reputable "OUTSIDE" third party got involved to confirm their findings and that they have the right individuals in custody. That is the only way I would accept this or any other outcome that may come our way. Very sad but true! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
