webfact Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Father shoots man who climbed into daughter's bedroom in the night Caption: "Climbed in to meet a woman - the father shot him dead" A 64 year old Thai man arrived at Huay Yot, Trang, police station to say that he had just killed a man with a shotgun in self defense. He had then discarded the gun by the road on the way to the station. Dead at a nearby house was 35 year old Apichai Cheuanut from Nakorn Sri Thammarat. He had died instantly and had nine holes from the blast. The gun was retrieved and examined. Apichai was lying in a pool of blood by a bed and door and had apparently climbed into the daughter's bedroom via the window. Nat, 64, told officers on Sunday that he had been asleep in front of the TV with his wife when he heard his daughter cry out. He picked up the gun lying by the bed and went to his daughter's room where he shot the intruder. He has been charged with homicide and weapons offences.

I don't own a gun, but if I caught someone climbing in at night to my kids bedroom, I think it fair to say that there would be a violent welcome. Will be interesting to see how this pans out at court. You should have the right to protect your family inside your own property. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smedly Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I understand what some have said here already but whether or not this death was justified depends entirely on the threat posed by the intruder, the father must justify his actions in the situation presented to him, for example - if the intruder was standing there defenceless with his hands in the air surrendering then shooting him dead was hardly the right course of action - calling the police might have been Just saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyJ Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Note the caption to the picture - "Climbed in to meet a woman..." Was it the daughter's boyfriend? She didn't necessarily "cry out" due to fear. (I haven't read the source article). Posted 2 hours ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucegoniners Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 If this guy did indeed break into his house into his daughter's room then the cops should pat him on the back and say "great job", not arrest him. But the fact he threw the gun away tells me there may be more to this story. Guess you can't ask the guy who was shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And who is ever to know he held up his hands ? I too would have shot him anyway, bugger the consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulic Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I just want to know the relationship between the intruder and the daughter. Boyfriend, friend, acquaintance, stranger. Did she scream for help, surprise at being awoken by her boyfriend, a cry of ecstasy? This guy should either get praise and a medal, or go to jail for manslaughter. A thorough investigation is needed. The girl may lie out of embarrassment or to protect her father. Who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

connda Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 No "Castle Doctrine" here. Shoot someone in self-defense in your own home and you'll probably be jailed and incarcerated. If you own a gun, the trade off is basically "Do I allow myself or family to be killed at the hands of an intruder, or do I protect them and suffer the consequences." For me it would be that later. It ain't America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yougivemebaby Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Thaivisa detectives goooo! No one knows the true story. The victim (he dead-maybe boyfriend), the home owners story, and the news story. She could have cried (moaned) out could mean other things. It doesn’t mean he attacked the daughter. Maybe it was all consensual. Makes for a better story to add drama. If he was charged with himicide it could be because he was unarmed and illegally in the house. Or he was in the house with the consent of his daughter and found them in a compromised position. We may never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravip Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Rich or poor, your house is your own safe domain and haven. Once broken into, you feel very insecure and uncomfortable for a long time, especially if you have kids. Breaking into another persons house is one of the lowest that a human can stoop to IMHO. Cant blame the father for letting go the gun at the intruder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let the old man go.... having to kill a man under duress is punishment enough. He will also have a lifetime to reflect on his action and deal with the deadman’s spirit hovering in his house .
