They dont say it will deter ALL criminals. it is not rocket science - the RTP is far from perfect but give credit where it is due they do appear to be doing something about this problem AND they are given high marks by outside committees saying they are doing a lot. In a country where family members encourage other family members into prostitution can not be easy to solve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one can serve 374 years, why not just say life imprisonment and never to be pardoned. "In both cases, courts capped the imprisonment period at 50 years in accordance with Thai law.

DLock Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 What's the point of 374 years in a jail sentence? Does that somehow make it more of a deterrent over, say, 30 years? You know what would be more of a deterrent? Public execution. That's what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the recipient of a life sentence does not usually serve the term of his/her natural life. The recipient of a 374 year sentence is likely to die in prison.

Vacuum Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 6 hours ago, webfact said: A Thai trafficker was sentenced to a record 374 years in jail for child trafficking in a ruling that lawyers say will send a deterrent to other criminals. Does it matter if the sentence is 50 years or 374 years. The perp will die in prison anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

300sd Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Yes it's great when a child trafficker goes to prison. I also keep in mind that the evidence is collected by our boys in brown, (or plain clothes) and the judgments from all case are coming from non biased judges?? Sorry justice system, I know of too many innocents you have sent away. I hope you did the right thing this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But check out the BBC documentary on Iraq sex trafficking by Imams... Not sure exactly what you are taking issue with in the article. It is basically just the facts of the case and quotations from third parties with an interest in the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bendejo Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 We hear about the treatment pedo offenders get inside the prisons in the UK and US, is it anything like that in Thai prisons?

We can all take comfort in knowing he will be treated with a great deal of warmth, and will make many new friends in prison. They will look after him, and have his back!

P100 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Ridiculous verdict. Just like in the US... Do these guys believe they can make the convict serve after his death? After 300 years there won't be even a Thailand... Hundreds of years obviously don't deter those guys, probably Thai courts need to try out 1000+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the sentence is served, If you can't pay the fine cash, its worked off at the amount of 200 baht per day extra time.

Yet backwatd coutries like the UK madenthe Kray twins do over 30 years with only one getting out with terminal cancer. This was all political, scadal with Lord Bòothby, corruption. They never hurt kids or non criminals. People drank and drobe in the 60s etc etc. Thailand is developing, that means it is a few decades behind the UK, USA, which is even worse for gun violence and corruption etc etc. Why do people stay here if they ate Thai bashers?

0815 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 This will not send any "deterrent" to any of these scumbags because they all believe they will not be caught. Greed and criminal potential is much stronger... Sentenced to a record of 374 years in jail, reduced to 50 years behind bars. Compensation? None of the poor kids will see a single baht !
