Bellacissa Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 If the trial does collapse, do we think anybody senior in the police force or government will resign? Lets hope that the poor Burmese guys are properly compensated for having to go through this terrible ordeal. Resign? No. Get punted over to the Office of Inactive Posts? Maybe.

BritTim Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I have not seen any discussion of the testimony of Dr. Chasit Yoohad as reported in http://bigstory.ap.org/urn:publicid:ap.org:eab0f9d26be242048e4dae7a83a9334e. A second witness, Dr. Chasit Yoohad, gave testimony about his examination of the victims' bodies. He said he also performed a medical checkup of the two accused, and found them in good health. He said he asked through a translator if they had committed the crime, and they replied that they had. This strikes me as strange. Why would the doctor be interrogating the Burmese? Of course, if the doctor was part of a frame up, the testimony is extremely convenient. It also does not state when this examination of the Burmese took place. I assume the translator was the pancake seller who has been accused of participating in the torture of the two accused. Even if the doctor's interrogation was carried out fairly, the two Burmese kids would probably not have dared risk renewed torture by claiming innocence. Further, how does anyone know that questions and answers from the pancake seller were correct translations? Will the "translator" give evidence at the trial? Should this claim of the Burmese admission of guilt be regarded as hearsay if he does not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritTim Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Does anyone have a transcript to show what was actually said about the DNA being lost. I'd love to know which words were mistranslated? No transcript exists. The reporters were also not allowed to take notes. At the end of the trial, the judge provides his notes as a record of the proceedings. For the moment, we must rely on the memories of the testimony by those present. The judge will decide later what the witnesses actually said. Welcome to the Thai judicial system.

thailandchilli Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 AFP published an hour ago: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/no-dna-retest-brit-tourist-bodies-thai-murder-065142771.html;_ylt=AwrXnCLLHKJVjHoATqvQtDMD;_ylu=X3oDMTByb2lvbXVuBGNvbG8DZ3ExBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDBHNlYwNzcg-- No DNA retest from Brit tourist bodies at Thai murder trial: lawyer Bangkok (AFP) - The defence team for two Myanmar nationals accused of murdering a pair of British backpackers in Thailand confirmed Sunday that they will not be able to retest crucial DNA samples taken from the victims' bodies. Migrant workers Zaw Lin and Win Zaw Tun are on trial for the murder of 24-year-old David Miller and the rape and murder of Hannah Witheridge, 23, on Koh Tao island in September. If found guilty they could face the death penalty. Both have pleaded not guilty. Thai police and prosecutors say forensic evidence strongly points towards the two 22-year-old suspects with both men's DNA found on or inside the body of Witheridge. But the defence claims the men have been scapegoated by an under pressure police force who bungled their investigation and coerced confessions from the pair which they later retracted. They had asked trial judges on the nearby island of Koh Samui permission to independently retest all the police's DNA samples. On Friday the court ruled that they could do so. But there was confusion about which samples left in police possession were still in a suitable state for retesting -- particularly the crucial swabs taken from Miller and Witheridge's bodies. Lead defence lawyer Nakhon Chomphuchart told AFP Sunday that only a handful of items found near the crime scene can be reexamined, including a garden hoe -- the suspected murder weapon -- a shoe, a sock and some plastic bags. But swabs from the victims were among the DNA samples used up in the testing process. "We wanted to be able to test more but with the other items there are no samples left (to test)," he said. View gallery British tourists Hannah Witheridge (L) and David Miller were found murdered on the Thai island of Ko … It is not clear how useful a retest on the available items will prove to either side. Earlier in the week a witness testified to removing and washing down the garden hoe when he came across it shortly after the holidaymakers' bodies were found. "The Court order means no possible retest on DNA samples from Hannah and David's bodies," Andy Hall, a Thailand-based British rights activist who has raised money for the accused and advises their legal team, told AFP. "Zaw Lin and Wai Phyo (Win Zaw Tun) now have no chance to retest crucial Thailand based forensic evidence implicating them in the crimes they are charged of," he said, adding that the integrity of the police investigation "has been seriously undermined" by the lack of retestable samples.

Slip Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 There have been a lot of questions about whether the dna evidence was lost, used up, or sent away, and I don't think anyone has commented on the actual Thai/ English translations in question, which is a little surprising to me. It's against the rules to post Thai language here, but: The Thai word for 'finished' is a single word. The Thai word for 'vanished' or indeed 'gone away' is actually two words, the first of which is the same for the Thai word as 'finished'. http://www.thai-language.com/id/205594 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNPBC0 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 While the matching of DNA samples is important, I suspect that the overriding importance of a likely contamination of the crime scene and problems in the chain of custody of any collected physical evidence will emerge as the major issues.

spidermike007 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 birma guys... not cambodians but the problem is the same. the 3 or 4 real culprits are still running free. If the 2 on trial are genuinely not responsible for these crimes, then the real culprits should right now be finding a way to take up residence in a country without an extradition treaty to Thailand. That is, if the real culprits did not leave the island the following morning on the first available ferry.Not necessary. The real culprits are above the law. The family is more powerful than the general. This has been shown over and over again. Do not upset the status quo. These people run bungalows on KT when there are 5 star resorts on Samui. If the proverbial crap would really ever hit the fan, I think some people would find out just how few real friends they have who would be willing to go down with them. Dead wrong. Where they made their money is in selling leased land for millions. The land dept. gave them fake title to sell. These five Dark Tao families are worth hundreds of millions of dollars, each. That is a fact. The entire island is leased land. So, how does this happen? Crazy money being made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomerangutang Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 GIGO comes to mind: Garbage In, Garbage Out. Seems all evidence has been so jumbled up, tampered, fabricated that would be impossible to make case against anyone. IATA records only as good as what goes in from terminal, and if kid flew to BKK could have just put any name on there, and what check in counter person going to question that. I have some faith in Pornthip. Recall she stood up to get DNA samples from Tsunami victims in spite of harassment by authorities. But she can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear. Granted it's easy to use a fake name to take a domestic flight, if the person is Thai - but there should also be security video footage of every flight - of people entering and leaving the plane. That can't be faked. As for GIGO, I agree, and that's why the Brit victims' families were fooled by Brit experts who were so easily fooled by Thai officials. I have faith in Pontip considering she's probably the best forensic expert available in Thailand. I like how she's not afraid to go against the grain with Thai officialdom, though she is working for the gov't and she did make a dumb call on the bomb detectors. I hope forensic samples aren't compromised or lost - for the slight chance that the real culprits might someday be hauled in to court. The evidence will then be needed - albeit the odds of that happening are remote. For those who don't undrstand the Thainess of this case look at the following with English subtitles available. That video should be required watching for everyone involved with or interested in the case - particularly Thai and British officials. Sonthi's stock just went up in my estimation. If the trial does collapse, do we think anybody senior in the police force or government will resign? Lets hope that the poor Burmese guys are properly compensated for having to go through this terrible ordeal. Resignation would be too cushy. They should be subject to stern disciplinary inquiries. If it it'shown: the people who are entrusted to protect the public are actually intentionally endangering the public (by enabling killers to roam free), there should be no mercy. This being Thailand, the worst that could happen is assignment to an inactive post, with full pay and benefits. - except for those quick enough to empty their bank accounts and take the first jet to a farang country to live high on the hog.

catsanddogs Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Evidence questions unresolved in Thai tourist murder trial THANYARAT DOKSONE, Associated Press BANGKOK (AP) — After three days of testimony in the murder trial of two Burmese migrants accused of killing two young British tourists on a Thai resort island, confusion remains over the disposition of key evidence. Accounts by Thai media and spectators at the trial said the court on the southern island of Koh Samui on Friday ordered forensic retesting of several items found at the crime scene, including a shovel that is alleged to be the murder weapon. However, the court failed to clarify what if anything should be done about DNA evidence obtained from the bodies and elsewhere that the defense has said is crucial to its case. The trial has drawn global attention both for the gruesome murders on the quiet, scenic island of Koh Tao last September and for an investigation that raised questions about police and judicial competency in Thailand. Initial press reports said the DNA evidence had been lost, but police have said that was a misunderstanding. They have reportedly told defense lawyers that at least in some cases, the samples were used up by the initial testing. But no clear official explanation has been issued. "It is not lost," national police chief Gen. Somyot Poompanmoung told reporters in Bangkok before Friday's session. "I repeat: Nothing is lost." Somyot called it a misunderstanding that stemmed from foreign media covering the case who might have poor Thai language skills. Somyot said the local police investigator, Lt. Col. Somsak Nurod, was vague in his testimony and therefore was misinterpreted. Somsak was no longer in possession of the DNA evidence since he collected it and then sent it to the Forensics Medicine Institute in Bangkok, Somyot said. "Nothing is missing. It's a misunderstanding," the police chief said. The bodies of backpackers David Miller, 24, and Hannah Witheridge, 23, were found Sept. 15 on the rocky shores of Koh Tao. Autopsies showed that both had suffered severe head wounds and that Witheridge had been raped. Under intense pressure to catch the murderers, police carried out DNA tests on more than 200 people on Koh Tao before arresting the two Myanmar migrants in early October. The men — Win Zaw Htun and Zaw Lin, both 22 — have retracted their initial confessions, saying they were extracted through beatings and threats, which police deny. From the start, investigators faced a variety of criticisms, including for failing to secure the crime scene and for releasing names and pictures of suspects who turned out to be innocent. Prosecutors say the DNA evidence, collected from cigarette butts, a condom and the bodies of the victims, links the two men to the killings, and defense lawyers have been requesting that evidence for re-examination since April. Andy Hall, a British migrant rights activist working with the defense, said that handing over the DNA evidence was crucial to delivering justice. "Without the samples it undermines the opportunity of the defense to get a fair trial," Hall said. "More importantly, if it is not provided, or if the forensics material is used up, it would undermine the credibility of the whole investigation." ___ Associated Press writer Jocelyn Gecker contributed to this report. -- (c) Associated Press 2015-07-11 Note - press are now calling the hoe the 'alleged murder weapon' as opposed to 'the murder weapon'.
