May have been with others but I doubt with her being so beautiful she could hide/work anywhere in this "small world" for long. Even with fake passports the timing of increased International security is against her successfully doing a flit? And what a miserable life-in-hiding it would be but, what frame of mind is she in at the moment to even contemplate it? If they take her life or give a long prison sentence she hasn't got much to look forward to whichever way she turns eh? Whatever the reason she murdered, in the mean time she's unlikely to be a risk to the public , or wherever she hides if she runs, unless she's cornered somewhere and resorts to protecting her identity. So may if's and no doubt this will be closely followed by many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was described as an hallucinating and paranoid man. Full story here http://www.bangkokpost.com/print/376593/ Just saw this post and read the full story and can now understand and almost sympathise that it happened. If she really was responsible for his death, it may not have been long before it was the other way around. She was in an almost inescapable situation with him at home. A sentence has been pronounced and so surely an appeal is pending? Almost an ongoing terrifying scenario compared to the also-beautiful farm lady whose would-be rapist was knifed by her on his first and last attempt. She had lots of sympathy in those TVN posts. Beauty is irrelevant, I'm just referring/identifying to that case. Edited December 21, 2016 by Jing Joe bit left out 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This must be unprecedented in legal history. They did the same to some police officers a couple of years ago. but then you'd expect that...... There was no follow-up in the media about what happened next, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riverhigh Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 7 hours ago, BangkokHank said: The Thai legal system wants to be seen as having meted out justice by sentencing her to death for a murder that she clearly arranged. At the same time, they don't really want to execute her, perhaps because they sympathize with her due to her having been abused by her husband, or perhaps because she is somewhat attractive. So this is a Thai-style face-saving way of avoiding executing her - by basically inviting her to run away. And it doesn't hurt that they will also get to pocket a million baht when she absconds. Everyone wins - well, except for the guy who was murdered. Based on the limited facts it appears that the husband was not an innocent victim. Out on bail for domestic violence. Being an Olympic sharp shooter was he threatening to shoot his wife? Was it a case of do unto others before they do unto you? Who knows? In my opinion, its just another instance of a failed Thai legal system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowboat Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 If memory serves, an old lady was picked up a few years ago in Pattaya or Phuket that was sentenced to death. She had been free for years. This woman will most likely just fade away into obscurity in that Thai parallel universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might give you a clue " Pol Lt Col Rathawit Saenthaweesuk, an Anti-Human Trafficking Division inspector, yesterday dismissed reports he had an affair with Dr Nitiwadee and wanted to steal Jakkrit's valuables. A letter written by Jakkrit, leaked to the public yesterday, suggested Pol Lt Col Rathawit (who has changed his first name from Kraiwit) wanted to take his valuables. Jakkrit had sent this letter to a phuyai (respected senior figure). Pol Lt Col Rathawit said he had known Dr Nitiwadee for six years, and she sought his advice on every issue." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, its just another instance of a failed Thai legal system. I'll add something to the limited facts just to stir the pot a little. "Police plan to summon Dr Nithiwadee Phucharoenyos, the wife of murdered sportsman Jakkrit Panichpatikum, to interrogate her over a complaint her late husband filed before his murder, claiming that she had stolen valuables from his safety deposit at Kasiko Police investigator Pol Lt-Colonel Isara Na Phatthalung said Jakkrit’s father, Manop, who has taken his son’s place as plaintiff in the case, met police officers on Tuesday and agreed to provide more details about the Bt60 million in valuables – mostly Buddha amulets – that had disappeared from the safe-deposit. Police will then summon Nithiwadee for further questioning, Isara explained." The above was from a Nation news report in November 2013. Another possible motive to get rid of him?

Satcommlee Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 She can walk into almost any civilised country she chooses and claim asylum based on having been convicted to death.

Correct.Posters here always make the mistake of judging Thailand by the standards of where they came from.If you are going to do that,in some countries she may have got off.In my old home she may have got 5 years and out in 2 with good behaviour.This is just a Thai way of taking all things into consideration.Maybe Thai law does not allow for murder/manslaughter under duress from domestic violence,i don't know.This is just a Thai way of reflecting what really happened and showing some empathy for the wife. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotpoom Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I have to admit, that as a person who frequently has a go at the "Thai Bashers".....this one has left me speechless. How can the "system" be expected to defend this action. It's not as if it was a situation where new evidence has come to light (that would have been mentioned surely). I'll say no more.
