cumgranosalum Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 guilty by a trial that in many countries would never have even happened - I think this will do a large amount of damage to Thailand's international reputation and many tourist may find themselves considering if they want to visit a country that appears to have such a deeply flawed law and order system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigeone Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Well I'm now sure that the Judges in this trial have either been paid off or the big boss has put his oar in..There is no way with the lack of evidence produced and flawed procedures that any credible court could arrive at this decision...Very sad for the many good Thai people...

BwindiBoy Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 That's it. My relationship with Thailand is well and truly finished and I shall be advocating to everyone I know, never to go there.

newcomer71 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Time (for me) to leave this dysfunctional country... whoever fits in this joke, please do not even comment my post and enjoy your stay. I would never want me or any member of my family being involved in any court here. Another nail in the coffin. I am disgusted, worried and totally shocked.

sartoric Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 What a travesty. Land of shame. Vote with your feet people. We made a decision to spend our tourist dollars elsewhere about a year ago. I tell anyone else who cares to listen about this "influential people" aspect of Thailand. It's wrong, no one should be above the law. I feel for those westerners who live in Thailand, and for so many wonderful Thai people, I hope for reform. The judicial system would be a good start.

ParadiseLost Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 As for me, I have totally wasted the past ten years in this weak excuse of a country - New year will see my application for an Australian retirement visa, something I never thought I would do but this country is totally out of control and is now joke status in the eyes of the world. Trumped up little generals, all 2000 of them corrupt to the core. Are they not in the least embarrassed by their actions? Justice system based upon wealth rather than factual evidence. I for one will be petitioning PADI and the like to comment on why they support a lawless community where their supposed accredited professionals are drunkards and drug pushers, cow towing to a murderous bunch of inbred oxygen thieves.

BritTim Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 To most independent observers, this verdict will appear unjust. I am sure international rights groups will criticize the process and the verdict. I am personally pretty sure the Burmese kids are scapegoats. What it came down to was the court accepting the police testimony without any real supporting evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigeone Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 A further comment from the Millar family is that they admitted the crimes and it was nearly two weeks before they retracted the admission...Very critical of the Petition that was raised and that the B2 had 7 excellent lawyers representing them and they were very happy that the right decision was reached...this is not word for word but almost..am typing as listening...Apparently the Millar family say lots that was heard in court was not communicated to the outside..And they always had a open mind initially but after the trial progressed it became clear that the Royal Thai police did a very good job...I'm sorry if what I'm saying annoys anyone but just saying what the Millar family, I think maybe David's brother, has to say on behalf of the family... David died from broken cheekbone and multiple blows to the head and then he was dragged into the sea and left to drown...We saw images of two innocent young men surrounded by tough policeman..we tried to retain a open mind.

Nigeone Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Well either the Millar family know something and have heard something that none of us have because the statement from the brother on behalf of the family was very very strong and very critical of the petition that was raised and the 'activists' who defended the B2,, I would say it's probably the strongest statement on a court decision I have ever heard and I really feel sorry for both families but unless there's something we all don't know this is going to be appealed and for sure there's a massive story hear that the UK media will follow this up as it would seem there's massive massive flaws in this court decision..
