Equalizer Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Saudi Arabia has no drug problems because they kill the dealers. It works well as a deterrent. Didn't that use to be the case in Thailand, too? No actually it did not work. The same levels are smuggled in to Saudi Arabia. I think Thailand realized that keeping them alive helps to study the crime and use this knowledge to move forward. I think killing them got them nowhere.

Shiver Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I suspect they honestly believe they'll never get caught, that their connections with uniforms will protect them, until one day there's a change of guard and not only are they no longer protected, but have a direct link to being found guilty.

mathias67 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Well done, again. Keep up the pressure. Maintain the fight against drugs and illegal weapons. Bet she does not get the chance of paying Bt460,000 that the restaurant who displayed pictures of assorted beers in his menu, she will get away with this for a lot less money. I am not a betting man but bet she gets off with a BT100,000 fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long does this farce need to keep going on for until the general population wakes up and says enough is enough? Any thinking person knows the only people that benefit from illegal drugs are Corrupt police Corrupt Politicians Corrupt judges Corrupt Magistrates Criminals Drug Dealers Drug Importers People that run our prisons Insurance companies Hospitals Illegal Drug growers Illegal Drug producers Lawyers Funeral directors Who are the victims? Most people, (yes even all of you who don't use them, when you have your house robbed or you are mugged in the street by some junkie needing his next fix or when you pay your insurance policy, or possibly when you find your child has become addicted after some junkie wanted to turn him/her into a customer) Your Children Maybe you if you are caught with something in your possession and also to the billions of dollars leaving the country and going into criminal hands, with NO TAX, Prohibition of alcohol in the USA in the 1920's is a prime example of what happens when drugs are illegal. Do we never learn. If you can't keep them out of a secure place like prisons how on earth can we keep them out of the general population. Mind altering drugs have been around since the beginning of civilization, the only difference is we can make much more dangerous ones now, and people who want to use them will use them as they are all illegal. Education, Compassion, Empathy, and sensible drug laws with rehabilitation to anyone who wants it will stop the drug problem in it's tracks. If someone can give me any other benefits to keeping them illegal, I am all ears. Excellent comment & also important information from our resident Wizard !

The Deerhunter Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Thai police don't seem to understand the "confidential" part of "confidential informant". I think they would have more small time dealers willing to rat out their suppliers if they knew they weren't going to be named in the newspaper the next day. What's the point of naming your source of information in the newspaper? "Okay, here's the deal, you tell us where you got the drugs from and will let you go free. And then tomorrow will put your full name and home address and your age in the newspaper and then by the next day you'll be found dead in the canal somewhere. Sounds like a good deal to you?" "cool, sign here" Three problems with your theory. (1)Too subtle. "I don't understand why you would do that." (2)Why not tell everyone when I have been clever. (3) You don't understand Thai-ism.

Travelman868 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Good bust. All from a 4 gram seizure. And they love to grass-up their uplines. Yes it is a good bust. Why after being caught with just 20 grams would she give up the rest of her stash? Good police questioning methods or threatened with torture? Thais (and Burmeses) confess too easily. It always amazes me how Thai's always confess. I'm thinking of starting classes to teach them the British method.

Beetlejuice Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 On April 20, Amporn will find out whether she will be allowed to get her belongings back from the court. What exactly does that mean? For the stash of drugs this woman has been caught with, she should be facing either a life sentence or the death penalty. If she is able to buy her way out, than what`s the point of arresting her in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluespunk Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 "On April 20, Amporn will find out whether she will be allowed to get her belongings back from the court." I'm guessing she wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
