He was speculating. But there's far more speculation by others that Dammachaya must be guilty of money laundering before any trial, and that has gone largely unchallenged.

Wrong, the thief is in jail and he never implicated anyone else to get a more lenient sentence. The cheques were to the temple not the Abbott. He received them in formal merit making ceremony in front of thousands of worshippers. This is the wealthiest temple in Thailand with a million followers and receiving large donations like this over a period of time is not uncommon. This is not money laundering, if you want to see money laundering come to Pattaya and follow the Russian money. 

so, the ex-monk fugitive is wrongly accused, right? (always the case, accept no responsibility)

And he is evading arrest because he cannot get a free trial in Thailand, right? (this seems pretty normal, routine occurence)

Or, he is running because he's staring at a long stretch in the dirt shoot acupunture clinic....which is it?

It's bog standard in Thailand for anyone with any kind of standing to avoid answering any kind of charges, brought under any circumstances, until they have been given assurances of the outcome. Which gives you a clue how things work in the judiciary.

When these charges were first made by the DSI, even though the credit union had withdrawn their complaint and lawsuit, the DSI still filed criminal charges and filed no charges against other persons and institutions that received 92% of the money. There is no crime in Thailand to unknowingly receive stolen money. So yes, in my view the temple/abbot is wrongly accused and the abbot is still a monk (not ex). And the other questions; no one gets a free trial in a military dictatorship, just by an arrest, a person must prove their innocence, not the reverse as in most free societies. The abbot has enemies and the arrest is a method to defrock a monk and to remove a thorn in their side.  What will be interesting is listening to some daft government mouthpiece try to explain at the UN this regime's human rights violations.

i don't doubt for a minute that the DSI are "chasing their tails', and if there is or was a crime comitted, no one really seems to know. But at the end of the day it also appears the monk is not so sqeaky clean, and the entire system is rife with corruption from top to bottom. In addition the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. Normal chaos, resulting in no justice. Pretty sad system over there.
