avoids prison for now

WHY?

(3 reasons)    1. Cop

                      2. Doctor

                      3. Hi so

Another instance of shame to be shed on Thailand.

Internationals read this and ask what sort of degenerate society does Thailand encourage?

Social discrimination, financial discrimination and last but not least a good chunk of racial discrimination.

Tell him his actions and compensation to his victims will be assessed on his personal and potential worth and hit him with a bill of 100 million baht + for each victim and watch the smile and him disappear to a jail cell.

Think I'm harsh, put a farlung in his shoes.

Royal Thai Police in action AGAIN!!!

It is pathetic how some foreigners want to associate themseleves with police scum in Thailand, justifying something like "my wife's cousin is a police...", or "the seller is a police...", or "I spent the night drinking with a police..."
The Thai police is THE most disgusting profession in Thailand.

I would be proud to be a relative, a buyer from, or having spent a night with e.g. a plumber/electrician/street-sweeper; they are MUCH more honest law-abiding people.

A falang would already be behind bars and facing a sentence far in excess of what was initially awarded to this HiSo. Three classes of people in LoS: Gutter-scraping falang, the workers, and the corrupt and ruling caste.

money matters.

Yes, sounds like a proportional punishment . Just like the 64 year old Anchan woman that was sentenced to 43 years last year under the Lese Majeste laws . All very just and proportional .
