5 years for killing two people, and then halved because he confessed

Remission to two and half years also due to large fat envelope from Mummy.

The "appeal" really means they are busy getting the finance for a larger envelope to try to have his sentence reduced to 3 months voluntary work in a hospital. It worked for that little princess who killed 9 people in a minibus.

The parents of the two grad students must be livid  . . . . .

Wow, who would have thought that  real punishment. Its not much but its more then expected many thought he would have walked away.

 

The only part I don't get.. he confessed.. went to jail and now his lawyer wants to appeal and bail.. how so if you confess ?

I like to watch CI (the American channell). They have a prog. "24 to Life".... It features the last 24 hrs. of freedom for 2 people every week who are saying goodbye to their families and making necessary plans for their children etc. These people appear to have already been up before the courts and been sentenced to what the name of the prog. implies....." 24 to Life" (we find out how long the sentance and what their crime was at the end of the show).

    I ask myself.....how come they're free to take part in this programme?

In every country in the world you can appeal the severity of the conviction.

You can but you are certainly not bailed while appealing a sentence

[tubby johnson]

Seeing is believing  Let's see if this scumbag spends even a minute in jail. TIT

Maybe they are appealing the length of sentence.

Thanks, so he can't get the conviction overturned just how severe the punishment is. 

 

He cant get the conviction overturned but can appeal the punishment, which on appeal cab be either decreased or increased.. lets hope its increased.

Quote

The court also dismissed a charge of DUI against Jenphop, citing insufficient evidence and a flawed police investigation.

 

The great guardians of Thai justice strike again!!!

 

What is it about traffic deaths that they just can't seem to just do their job -- the Red Bull kid, the B-movie actress Anna, the teen who caused the fatal van crash, and now Jenhop.

Edit: I read the full article and this is annoying: 'The court also dismissed a charge of DUI against Jenphop, citing insufficient evidence and a flawed police investigation.' Someone needs their backside kicking but it will never happen. The whole system is corrupt.

 

Chill Man, drink a Red Bull, it gives you wings Geezer! (well it gave Boss Turbo wings)

Out on bail already - entirely predictable.

 

The appeal will drag on for years and by the time it's all practically forgotten they'll decide to suspend the sentence and give him 48 hours community service instead (which he'll never attend). That's the way it always works for the rich and connected.

Meanwhile earlier this year, the Supreme Court upheld the jail-sentence of *15* years given to Yuyee (and she is currently *in jail*) for carrying an amount of cocaine that was so small that it was *all* used up in the forensic-test to identify it.

Now it is a misleading headline.
He is not jailed.
He is free on bail.

I just don't understand these lawyers that advise their clients to appeal. 2 and a half years! !!he should be doing cartwheels of happiness. He'll be out in 18 months with good behaviour. 

An appeal will last years and he might get the 5 years he deserves. 

Thai lawyers never seem to have the clients best interests in mind. 

"Thai lawyers never seem to have the clients best interests in mind."  

Why do so many lawyers practice law? Because they're kind hearted helpful folk? NO. They are in it for the money and prestige! 

And I do know a few of them.

[DM07]

How can anyone -ANYONE- celebrate this as 'justice served"?

He killed 2 people, while driving under the influence, in a car, he was obviously not able to handle!

(The DUI never to be proven, because the mighty RTP #$%^&@ it up again and I assume: on purpose!)

And he gets  5 years, cut in half because he "confessed"!

He confessed?

What is there to "confess"?

There is a video of HIS rocket- ship plowing into the other car from behind and it was HIM and him alone, crawling out of the wreck!

This is just another case of Thai- justice = no justice!

To be out on bail he must have submitted the intention to file appeal Einstein.

Yes but his name is not ....

Not Applicable. 

[soalbundy]

How can he be imprisoned, he was a monk, isn't that enough?

[mark01]

Jail time.... You think????

[joepattaya1961]

What was there to confess?

There were witnesses and the cops.........ah the cops.

Pretty tough for the victim's relatives; the "slayer" was willing to settle for millions but they refused; they demanded justice. 

Well....justice is what they got.

We can only hope that the appeal judge finds his crimes to be as abhorrent as the rest of us and ups his sentence to 20 years seeing as he only admitted because of the 50% off offer the system here allows.

[JAG]

So he has a get out of Gaol card ( lots of money ) but will the banned driving licence for life stand ?

As if he (or anyone) will take a blind bit of notice!

[anon6596585]

"Jenphop was found guilty of fatal reckless driving and given a five years jail term. The sentence was halved to two years and six months because he confessed to the charge.

 

So he was found guilty then quickly confessed to halved the sentence???

 

weird that you can confess to a traffic incident to halve the sentence. Im sure the evidence should of been enough. 

 

250km/h. There's no excuse for that. Ridiculous

 

pretty generous only 2.5 years for killing 2 people. 1.25 years/person. 

wow

[Lupatria]

So he confessed to something which was caught on camera and some moron thinks that's a good reason to half the anyway ridiculous sentence. The inflation in the value of a young persons life is incredible. So you spent around 450 days in jail for recklessly killing someone?

Would the judge come to the same sentence if one of his offspring's were killed? I doubt it!

[gandalf12]

Far too short but a lot better than a slap on the wrist and told not to do it again

Yeap, Thaigeezers moaning about a man who plead guilty to a crime caught on camera and getting his measly sentence halved for it. What will they moan about next - that he's now out on bail?

 

The gall of some members to moan about such injustice. 

[Nickymaster]

So, only 5 years for killing two people, and then halved because he confessed?  God, this countries laws are so totally UP! 
 

Hold tight. He will be out within 1 year for good behavior.
