Reminds me of some beatdowns I witnessed on the Atlantic City boardwalk back in the '70s when someone tried on a dine and dash.
The vendors all looked after each other. That was before cell phones, when they'd gather a posse and go looking for them.
They were looking for payback, not a "fair fight". That would just be stoopid. Anyone witnessing it would think 3 times before doing the dine and dash anywhere on the boardwalk.
I've been here for 20 years, but admittedly, do not travel much!
The type of dogs you refer to are what used to be referred to as "lap dogs" as they were mostly kept by ladies for their "pleasure" - mollycoddled yappy little rat like creatures that can hardly be called "dogs".
The one I am talking about are the larger dogs that are allowed to run around freely at night, forming gangs and alliances and fighting for territory etc - soi dogs do the same but these dogs supposedly have "owners".
The way I read it is that Sean Tinsley was convicted of the lesser offence of assault, by the Thai court.
Following the death of the victim, Adam Pickles, some years later, a British coroner has found sufficient grounds to allege that Mr Pickles was murdered. When a coroner's verdict is murder, the police are obligated to investigate.
As for guilt or innocence, IIRC, Sean Tinsley pleaded guilty to assault.
