She executed him. Surely a bus ticket out of town would have been cheaper than a lawyer and a life sentence.

The fact that she found this to be the only way out of the abuse and bullying is very sad.

Is the back now considered the chest?

Is this the new world, where if someone insults you or shouts at you, you get to kill them?  No, this is the definition of premediated murder, which deserves the death penalty.  She literally sought out a gun to kill someone she didn't like.  The world would be a better place without her.

this is not a single women incident or a men incident, the system collapse, the society failure.

Name it, the way people are brought up, the society, the religion, the government, the food, the lifestyle.  The influences sometime become unbalanced and take very serious step.

Killing another person is killing ourselves, the guilt will haunt in minds ever, than an jail term or death sentence.

Very very poor reporting, is someone not checking and proof reading ???

this brings a very serious disfunction to your reports if you cannot report accurately

Dead Man can't talk. No sympathy for her. May she join him soon.

Translating a report accurately from Thai to English is very demanding, give it a go one time.

Remember that you can only report what is reported NOT what you think it should say.

That doesn't always work, my daughter was stalked by her alcoholic druggie ex for years, she was beaten and their son threatened.  She even had a emergency alarm straight through to the police station, he was never imprisoned for it because he was a grass. He got a taste of his own medicine and the police knocked on my door stating that if i organised it again I'd end up in prison. My grandson, his son, is now a 6 ft 6 policeman, the abuser lives on the other side of the country. Sometimes you just snap!!

Do you know all the facts of the case? If the allegation is true that he was a physically abusive person, and she was of a marginalized and poor strata of society, then yes, killing him was the only realistic option. The sad reality of Thai domestic abuse is that the only way out is if one dies. Usually, it is the woman or the child that is abused and who dies. Sometimes, it is the responsible party.

And sometimes the executed person is not the abused. That is why I prefer to wait for the facts of a case to be established.

They literally arrested her

 

So I guess the answer to your question would be no....

People killing each other is nothing new.  Currently we don’t know the facts so why so fast to judge.  Do you know that this was premeditated?  Who knows it could have been the guy’s own gun and we don’t know yet what had happened just prior to the shooting.
