I'm not saying they are correct, but I certainly share their doubts. It's a very odd story, so odd why would anyone make it up? However, as I say that final paragraph suggests they really haven't investigated it to any depth. And if you're thinking the BIB can't win with me. You would be right. Personal experience of them has created a rather large reservoir of distrust. Edited December 14, 2016 by Bluespunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puwa Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 False allegations of sexual assault do happen but are rare. Those cases have certain patterns. Either the accuser identifies an assailant to exact revenge on him, or claims an attack in order to cover up some other embarrassing situation. This case fits neither scenario A, because no attacker is named, nor scenario B, because she went home before speaking up, and so whatever situation might have hypothetically motivated a false claim would have no longer matter. She was absolutely right to go home rather than try her luck against "men in uniform" through the legal system. Moreover, every woman I know, local or foreign, who lives or travels extensively in Asia, has a tale of harassment or assault, and I don't doubt them. So on what basis would one dismiss her claims out of hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkidlad Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 If the RTP did their day-to-day job with integrity, people would often believe them. Simple fact is that they don't. I simply take everything they say with a vat of salt. Maybe this is why I'm not a gambling man. The RTP behave like they can do no wrong and will sue you if you ever say anything wrong (even when they do wrong). Your reputation will usually precede you. Now the girl is back home. The police can do nothing except for bang their chests. They've made their beds......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is proven that the claims were an offence of defamation and had indeed damaged the image of Thailand there may be a price to pay, said the police spokesman on Wednesday. Whether her story is true or a complete fabrication, the Thai police do this to preserve the countries image, irregardless of what actually happend. Given tough times in the tourist sector, bad island publicity, Jill St Onge fiasco, this might be the damaging blow for the US tourist market. Not a big one, but yet a sgnificant one, that always provides a steady stream of toruists. Hopefully they can descredit it and then get a few US papers to publish their findings ------- It's the best that can be done to salavage a bad situation.

The BiB knew what happend in less than 24 hours and yet tried their best to obscure and obfuscate to preserve Thailands image. and what was the result? Two sisters from Quebec dead., two years later This story was picked up by US newspapers and national media so most definetly the Police and Thailand would want to respond.

Wilsonandson Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I thougt the mother Cindy Fairfield said in one thread that the Thai police were in contact with Alex and she had identified from police photographs the bar she was abducted in. If that was the real Cindy Fairfield and not some sick imposter. She said the police officer was called Mario. Hope she can make another appearance on Thai visa on her reactions to the latest developments in the alledged abduction and attempted rape of her daughter.

The man from udon Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 How can you go to the police after being raped by them.she may of been told just get out of the country as you won't have any luck going up against the police here.youll end up the loser for sure.if they can't and probably won't solve the case then they will hang you high for defamation it's as simple as that.as for making it up to con her own family,well I think she could of thought of a better one than that.she done the right thing getting out of dodge to the safety of her own country.people should put themselves in her position and ask ..what would you do?

chrisinth Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 How can they announce this claim is fabrication before the investigation has been completed? Making statements like this does nothing to help their cause IMO. Paves the path to a cover-up or, at the very least suspicion to a cover-up before the facts are known if this is their mindset before inquires have been complete.

The fact the the girls Mother posted on here that they are in daily contact with the BiB and that the bar had been located and suspects identified suggests that the Bib investigaed the allegations and found no evidence at all Why are you so into this? Almost sounds as though you have a vested interest. Either that or you are extremely green or trolling. I don't know whether this is legit or not, but after following their antics over the years, even a switched-off ten-year-old would know the force is riddled with dodginess (murder, rape, corruption, gambling, bungled investigations and just general incompetence) from the top down and thus anything is plausible.

tukkytuktuk Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) I hope our experience does not discourage travel to other countries. Alex Moore and I had an incredible experience trekking the Himalayan mountains in Nepal and never felt threatened and were always taken care of... I strongly encourage anyone traveling to look up dangers and read thoroughly about the limitations of the embassy in Thailand and the danger's that lurk if you are a friendly, beautiful young woman. Travel but do lots of research and be meticulously careful!!!! And Google search the crap out of everything! You might come across things that you never knew could happen.

Grubster Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I could see this being true or false. That is why in the civilized world the police don't spill there guts to the public, They gather evidence and take it to a court of law. They try to keep the public in the dark until it is brought up in court. Thats where the he said she said stuff and the evidence is to come out in full. If they found that the evidence all pointed to a scam by the accuser than they would arrest her when they thought they had a case, not tell the world that they are going to start to investigate her. Thats a threat not a statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
