The burned wreck of the vehicle rear-ended by Jenphop Viraporn on March 13 in Ayutthaya province. Two grad students burned to death inside.

BANGKOK — Police said the results of their investigation into the fatal car crash caused by Jenphop Viraporn will be forwarded to prosecutors by April 26, about six weeks after the accident drew national attention.

Deputy national police chief Pongsapat Pongcharoen said Tuesday that investigators were collecting all available evidence for the attorney general’s office to bring a court case against Jenphop, a wealthy businessman who killed two graduate students in a fiery wreck March 13.

The prosecutor: where high-profile cases go to die.

And we still have the open questions:

1. Why have the charges not already been laid?

2. Why do the police say they will interview the madman driver by the end of this week now that he's out of hospital. Why not interview him either the day he got out of hospital or even interview him in hospital. Still reeks of special treatment.

3. Overall why is it taking so long? Usually all wrapped up in a couple of days.

Seems nothing has changed.

He needs more time to leave the country.

More, the national RTP chief put the second in command nationally on this case about 10 days ago to speed it up and to allay the public outcry about special treatment.

Seems even the second in command can't speed it up.

So just wondering whether a certain person / party still has control of the RTP?

Perhaps this is a case where the general should step over the top of the RTP and put a very senior army officer, authorized as a police officer, on this case to gain some immediate traction.

Jenphop should have gone from hospital straight to jail, dot!

Keystone cops in charge of an investigation yet again....there will be no surprises in this outcome

I repeat - if it goes to court, he will be found guilty and given a lengthy sentence. Then he will appeal to the Appeal Court which will find a reason to acquit him. The prosecutors will then file to the Supreme Court which will rehear the case, overturn the Appeal Court's ruling, sentence him to 3 years in jail, cut to 2 years because he cooperated, and then suspend the jail time because ... stuffed if I know ... because of something or other.

I think I've just written next year's court story already.

edit: Oops, forgot the community service - probably something like 48 hours per year counselling Q Bar patrons about drink-driving.

I doubt he's been to prison before - that's the usual reason for suspending the prison sentence.

Actually, the guy is already in jail but the big question is for how long?

Maybe just a few days, or weeks, and then the case gets dismissed on a "technicality" and it's all back to normal?

Or is it? The Thai public are putting a lot of pressure on the police and the courts to make sure the victims family gets the justice they deserve.

The very fact he is even behind bars is however already a step up compared to what happened to the red bull heir (as you so subtedly implied) and that <deleted> who killed 9 people on the tollway, perhaps because she was a minor at the time meant she was dealt with so leniently.
