Say a low life criminal has an epiphany and cries swearing he's sorry and he really wants to make you whole and offers to do so

on a payment plan of 100k a month.

Do Thai courts or police have the power to reduce a mans sentence from say 5 yrs. to 3 yrs. if the criminal offers and pays

restitution to the victim of the crime?

Can criminals get their sentence reduced by paying restitution?

Yes.

Q. Why are there no mega rich Thais in jail in Thailand?

Where is a "low life criminal" going to get 100k/month ?

No joke.

This criminal is offering to make full restitution at baht 100k/month to get the victim to ask the court to go easy on him.

The police officer in charge of this case has passed this information to the victim as if it is possible to do this.

Said lowlife was caught with the cash in a sting extorting money and has confessed to the crime.

The victim still has to testify and his request of the court for the max or leniency apparently carry's a lot of weight.

Low lifes can have money... just look around.

Does Thai law allow such an arraignment???

It's really simple. Get the cash first, all of it, before you plead for the wrongdoer's leniency.

Who cares what happens next?

Good idea.... if a perfect world. The scumbag not big money wants to pay on installments.

His choice. Cash up front or no deal.

You would never get paid the instalments anyway.

I tend to agree with you. I think he's a bad risk.

The perp however swears he will faithfully pay 100k each month.

Can you see thru wool?

Yes.

You may be on to something.
