Thai Court sentences former senior police doctor to death for murder of Myanmar worker

They can't tell the sex of a skeleton?

A first year biology student could do it by looking at the pelvis and/or eye-brow ridges.

Total incompetence by someone that probably bought their degree. This is what happens when no one is allowed to fail in school.

While the pelvis thing may be true (but I expect there are variations among races & ages), the eye-brow ridge characteristics varies from race to race and generally not true for this part of the world.

Forensic anthropologist Caroline Wilkenson wrote in 2004 that Australoids have the largest brow ridges "with moderate to large supraorbital arches".[12] Caucasoids have the second largest brow ridges with "moderate supraorbital ridges".[12] Negroids have the third largest brow ridges with an "undulating supraorbital ridge".[12] Mongoloids are "absent browridges", so they have the smallest brow ridges.[12]

1. Mongoloid /ˈmɒŋ.ɡə.lɔɪd/ is the general physical type of some or all of the populations of East Asia, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, Eastern Russia, the Arctic, the Americas, parts of the Pacific Islands, and some northeastern parts of South Asia.

The ' Do no harm' oath doctors take when they become one, probably has different meaning in Thailand,

it's like do no harm unless it's a Burmese or a person no one is going to miss anyway....

Same as The Doctors in ISIS, What Oath...

. And you can look at Mengele or al Qaeda Doctors

''not been able to identify two skeletons dug up at Suphat's ranch''. Where in that sentence does it mention the sex?

Third from last line of the OP article.

The hipocratic oath long ago became a hypocritic oath once doctors realized there were many ways to make money from peoples bad health, especially old people.. This applies in every country and creed.

This court ruling is not some kind of gesture towards Myanmar is it..

...there, we've caught the suspects who killed your fellow countrymen...

...oh by the way, hope there's no bad feelings now when we shoot the 2 myanmar youths based on our evidence from K/T police.

Ah, but where is the "good" doctor now? And where will his sons be if they get bail? The 2 Myanmar "youths" (men, actually, even if they do look like youths) haven't been found guilty (yet!) but have been refused bail, even though it was guaranteed by the Myanamar government.

And in relation to other charges:-

"Phetchaburi Court postponed two sessions to read out the verdicts in this matter after Suphat said he was not able to attend them."

Unbelievable! Sorry I'll rephrase that as things continue to happen here that at one time I would have called unbelievable, but now prefer to call "incredible", as once money starts talking, anything seems to be possible!
