Sounds to me like he died without pain. Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Croc Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Reading the link it sounds like a death in custody, despite this reasoning: "Instead of creating a scene with officers taking him into custody, the officers cooperated with Kusoldharm rescue workers to bring him to Patong Police Station, Sen Sgt Maj Somkiet explained. After Mr Timoshenkov arrived at Patong Police Station, the officers let him sleep in an open-access area of the station." Perhaps more awareness of his extreme drunken condition may have resulted in medical intervention sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJRS1301 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Quote Ummm not understanding the story fully, was he in police custody? He refused to leave the hotel, so police called, yet dead outside police accommodation??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The police in Pattaya were not looking for prostitutes, just being a prostitute is not an offence; they were looking for evidence of prostitution which is different and is illegal.

samjaidee Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 A blood test would have told them in minutes how much alcohol he had in his body at the time of death. The longer they leave it to do the test the more inaccurate the results become. His slurred speech could be the result of a previous stroke or one of several other illnesses. When will the police learn that sometimes it is better not to speculate rather than imparting information that is not based on incontrovertible evidence?

DaRoadrunner Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 The usual totally inept reporting leaves many unanswered questions. The poor guy's dead, but here he's just another statistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
