4MyEgo Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 The cop obviously new what really happened, or assumed what happened, his daughter found out this guy was married with kids and an argument ensued with her either falling off or being pushed off the bike out of jealousy or anger. He lost his daughter, he took the matter into his own hands after he also found out this guy was married with kids (duped), feeling conned, and angry as he probably liked the guy and thought he was suitable to look after his daughter only to find out she fell off the bike and died and then he finds out the future son in law is married with kids, ouch. In my opinion, he should of tried to control the anger that took over his mental state, think about it, how much does it cost to take some one out in Thailand, this guy is a cop, he would have connections, money and could have come up with the best alibi, bu then again he probably got total satisfaction watching the guys face when he pulled the trigger, the price you pay for taking it on personally, dumb move in my opinion.

DonaldBattles Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 As long as there is no enforcement of the law there can never be any respect for the law. If the punishment would fit them crime then it would be a different world. An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orange31 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 She accidentally fell off the back of a motorbike, probably wasn't wearing a helmet. If she wasn't wearing a helmet then she's just as much to blame as well as her cop murdering dad for not bringing her up correctly. He should do 20yrs in my book.

Jonathan Swift Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Can you "blame" the father? Yes, you can "blame" him for his actions, murder. Can you sympathize and agree that this is not exactly the same as a person of clear mind, criminal intent, and rational judgment planning and carrying out the same crime? I can draw a difference. It is called a "crime of passion". he was punishing someone, in his mind for the crime of murdering his daughter. The man had unbearable pain, anguish, and grief, which none of you can imagine unless you've lost a son or daughter or husband or wife to any form of violence under similar circumstances, convinced that it was deliberate. It is more than enough to unhinge someone's mind. In this country he might plead temporary insanity, or probably take a plea for 2nd degree murder or manslaughter, do some time, and get paroled in time to at least TRY to have some life in his remaining years. The US court would undoubtedly consider his loss and his state of mind, his lack of any prior crimes, and his service as a police officer if he was a good cop. The court would not view this the same as a common criminal. I don't know how Thailand handles such things. Now two families have tragedies that they may never recover from. I will add that I have experienced that kind of pain and anguish, and come very close to making mistakes that could have ruined my life, but for the grace of God, and I did not.

TSF Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Dumb savage. No self control, gets in a blind rage and straight into kill mode. Now he's in deep shit. If he had a brain the size of a pea he would have had the son-in-law taken out inside prison, as already suggested here, or taken him out in a dark soi one night with no witnesses.

Emster23 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 ".. do something that will effectively end his life as a free man for ever, " Maybe you missed the part about him being a senior police officer. Different rule book. And remember "this is Thailand". I imagine he will use the "I was angry" defense, perhaps looking at a year in special cell. Oh, and just a side correction: USA picked up where French laid off regarding war in Vietnam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bino Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Even though it is morally questionable and even reprehensible in the eyes of many, infidelity is not a crime. If it could ever be proven that the daughter's unfortunate death was an accident, or even if not and the guy had to serve a prison term, this cop has been the judge, jury and executioner. He has robbed a wife and children of a husband and father. To me, that is the saddest part of all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last paragraph of the origional post. the father had accepted the proposal of marriage to the daughter.... Then later discovered that the dude was married... Ergo....

So if the now fatherless children of the man this BIB murdered on the basis of a feeling his daughter was killed by the deceased (is there any evidence this is the case?) decide at some point in the future to exact revenge and kill him, would that also be justifiable?

Murder is not such a serious crime in Thailand as it is in the west, I very much doubt he will serve even 10 years for this, especially as he admitted his actions immediately and handed himself in. So his life is not ended as a free man forever - far from it. On the other hand if you have a bag (perhaps a large bag) of drugs in your pocket when arrested you can expect anything between 10 and 30 years depending on which way the wind is blowing on your day in court.

Would the expression, "<deleted>", be used correctly to identify someone on TVF who talks trash like you did above with no intelligence to back up his post. Because I don't want you to be called such a name, I will do you the kindness of enlightening your own defficient intellect on this topic. The original news article indicated the recently deceased ex-boyfriend of the police officer's daughter was, in fact, currently married to another woman when he proposed to the officer's daughter. She declined his proposal. Furthermore, since he was already legally and currently married to a different woman any marriage proposal, even if accepted, would result in a "null & void" new marriage and therefore he could never have been an erstwhile (former) husband-to-be of the policemans daughter. He was at most a suitor, a boyfriend, a lover. Edited August 5, 2016 by ClutchClark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
