If they're dumb enough to post the video on social media, they deserve to get caught, and whoever filmed and posted the video sure didn't do anything to help the girl. Any less guilty of WHAT? Letting lots of people know what kind of low lifes there are in Pattaya? :- "He said he was shocked to find out that he had been videoed and apologized to society for damaging the image of Pattaya. He said that he was very drunk." What about apologising to the girl? And once again the ages old excuse:- "He said that he was very drunk." Oh, that's all right, then - he obviously doesn't need punishment, he needs help - I'm sure that a few fathers or husbands would like to give him all the help he needs!

I don't think the problem was with taking the film(although what sort of person films that and doesn't do anything?), I think it is more about posting it publicly rather than handing it in.

The mentality of the Thai police you are absolutely right this would have gone unnoticed if it wasn't posted by that person that videoed the incident you wonder what's inside the head of the police that make these comments.

Eli1 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 (edited) 5 hours ago, hotchilli said: I guess if the persons responsible for videoing the act were actually trying to get the perpetrators caught they could have handed the evidence directly to the police first rather than posting it on social media where it would just attract a different kind of attention before bringing any justice to the case. Give the police the benefit of the doubt first, if all else fails then go ahead & post it to a wider audience. And how good is that we all love dumb people my good man especially ones that post things on social media. Because if they didn't then thry would never be caught.

Jing Joe Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Police also intend to prosecute the person or persons who made the video and posted the footage on the internet under the Computer Crimes Act. On face value of the above statement it appears the police being obliged to abide by the law to its full extent BUT;- A ray of hope hinges on the potential looseness of the word "intend". "The Lord Law works in mysterious ways" might just conveniently see a way out for the poster with a warning. Maybe at a price? Or is this just my being too naive? If prosecution eventuates, pity help any future victims or their would be video do-good bystanders, unless of course one and all learn to provide the footage only to the police and not the internet. But providing the police first opens up a can of worms scenario of them not taking any action. Posting stuff on social media has become a way of life but there's a new pitfall now BUT Q --- Will the Thai public get to know it? Q -- Will the followup on this particular Computer Crimes Act ever surface for us to read? And if the prosecuted is fined they'd be too scared to show that on social media.

Making public anything that forces the police to do their actual job, while also showing what actually goes on here, apparently is considered a crime against society. Reputation to protect and all.... Had the video been delivered privately to the police, I would have expected a shrug of the shoulders and of course no further action. The person taking the video cannot lodge any complaint. Mind you, they may have given him a warning not to post it anywhere.

Just one word in your post justifies the authorities response: "locals". If it was a foreigner he would have been nailed down with clear pictures and loads of police officers would have pointed at the girl's genitals.

Ross Macdonald Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 The crime was posting the video (of a sexual offence) online not recording it. The person who recorded the video of the crime should have simply informed the police and not posted it online. The problem here is that the police only knew of the crime because it was posted online, so the police are not at fault here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The person taking the video cannot lodge any complaint. That's why members of the public here often post things online on Facebook and similar, because it's often the ONLY way (via resulting public pressure/shaming) that forces the authorities to actually respond.

"The problem here is that the police only knew of the crime because it was posted online, so the police are not at fault here." So are you saying that the police are in a Catch 22 situation? As a previous poster said, informing the police would probably have cause a shrug of the shoulders and nothing more. After all, the girl was drunk wasn't she, so it was her own fault, wasn't it? Was she wearing a bikini perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
