I suspect this will be going to the Appeal Court. To be satisfied of guilt beyond all reasonable doubt, I would have liked to have seen something a bit more concrete. Agreed. When you know the Thai incompetence, you never be sure about any court judgement.
April 22, 20178 yr It's incredible..... comments focus on a convicted criminal & his behaviour/appearance. No mention of fact that he took the life of David Bernat in a gruesome act, then disposed of his body in a grizzly premediated way. Justice served & RIP David Bernat....

You may doubt the verdict, or the integrity of the Thai justice system, but he has been found guilty in court. "Innocent until proven guilty" simply doesn't apply at this point.

Great society that'll produce. Let's just say that in some cases based only on circumstantial evidence of what many consider the kind of crime only a seriously demented person would even take part in, an apparent extreme level of tattooing doesn't help portray the image of someone not capable of mutilating someone else's body.

April 22, 20178 yr Being convicted by Thai DNA evidence is as reliable as a girl in soi 6 telling you she has been faithful to you for a years absence. And besides, after watching "Prison Break' I think he has a cunning escape plan !!

I had a girlfriend, back in my former life. She had a few tats but she wasn't a killer. The one tat i liked best, was where she had the letter 'B' tatted on one bum cheek, and the letter 'B' tatted on the other. When she bent over, it spelled 'BOB'

He ought to get the death penalty for over-charging!

You hate authority so much you feel nothing for the victim and hope the accused is set free. Check yourself. A world without authority is a world you don't want. Depends on what kind of authority, some people make and change rules because they just love the authority, and impressing the people working under him/her. It happens regularly in IMOs and banks etc.
April 22, 20178 yr He ought to be prosecuted and convicted for his crimes, if the accusations are indeed true. He ought not be prosecuted and convicted for tattoos. However, as a practical matter, there is a reason lawyers clean their defendants up, dress them in a business suit in order to make them appear more mainstream and respectable. Peeps consciously or unconsciously associate tattoos with crime, and not entirely without a basis for that. Tattoos sometimes represent a gang affiliation.

I suspect this will be going to the Appeal Court. To be satisfied of guilt beyond all reasonable doubt, I would have liked to have seen something a bit more concrete. Most people kill one on one without witnesses. Both victim and criminal were seen going into his condo and then crimimal left alone with two big black bags. Blood DNA in criminals condo matched the victim. Criminal transferred money after the death from the victims bank account to his account. Criminal lied about his behavior and being with the victim. Appeal all you want this man deserves psychiatric incarceration or life in prison or the death penalty.
April 22, 20178 yr "Forgive them, for they know not what they do." The man possibly think he's Christ on the way to crucifixion and smiling about it. Has he had a psychiatric evaluation?

So be careful and watch your back ..... Chok dee all :) I must agree he looks better in this pic. I think he is a psychopath as other photos of him ,he looked very sick. One thing that psychopath's do is never admit guilt , they can show no empathy and usually are highly intelligent. Their brains are hard wired, and they can not display empathy and many other feelings. The only different type of psychopaths are cheese cake psychopath's Like Swiss cheese they have pathways that allow a little empathy through. The trouble with this world if that these people run the world, they are a completely different animal to a normal honest person. The powers that be know this , they know that they can manipulate the poor as they will usually pay their bills and be honest.. Tats don't make any difference to this nutter tat or know tats he was doomed by the evidence.
April 22, 20178 yr Why do they.have a death penalty here ?.. Just call it life sentence which what it is.

Well, it used to cost about that to go to Sassoon's back in the late 60s/early seventies, a ridiculous sum really, particularly to end up looking no better than a (very bad) drag version of Dusty Springfield or Jane Fonda. Men's hair was not the best thing about the 60s. I save a particularly savage wrath for whoever dares to drag out those snaps today. Sorry for being off topic.
