Dispose of this POS as soon as possibly and as painfully as possible

"Eye for eye will make the world blind" ( Mahatma Gandhi )  Yes, he deserves death penalty but 30 years in a Thai jail will be much worse...

Tbey actually already brought him in at the start as they did with all owners of similar guns.

They let him go as they didn't think he could have done it with such a good job and financially very well off.

Only when his wife told the police afterwards were the police waiting to be able to arrest him and charge him for the robbery.

He said he knew the police would be at the gold shop at the time he robbed it as he was bored with his life and wanted a gun fight.

But the guy didnt own the gun, his father owned it. 

Suffice to say several lines of enquiry have led to the arrest

Well they found out so they must have found the right guy. It sounds like they basically had CCTV footage of him all the way home what a stupid bloke for not transferring vehicles and stealing a motorcycle but I guess he planned on a suicide attack.  The moral of the story is get snipped if you have a mia noi.

There is much more to this story, let's see how it pans out

Nice!  We can all rest now.  Much safer.  I told the wifey she can gold shop again.

I would have told her there is still risk because of 'copy cat' criminals. And then the bank balance stays nice and safe.

 

The Thai police have done a fine job in reeling in the suspect. There is a lot of cynicism on the other posts about this, but it just shows that the police put in the hard yards, searched the crime scene and other areas well, found leads and followed them up.

 

This guy has confessed and although he is still holding out on his motives the compelling evidence that has already been released seems to show this may well be the perp. If he is guilty, the police should be commended for taking someone like this off the streets. It also shows respect for the people who lost their lives and were injured in this heinous crime.

Why do you think that? It is a very logical step to take. And with the press released photo of the suspect showing him wearing what looks like a military style jumper with grey patches on the elbows and shoulders, their initial train of thought has been justified. And they should be commended.

 

 

The only other subset of people I can think of off the top of my head with a taste for joint patches on clothes are old school professors with tweed jackets.

are we all missing the point here, it was said (by someone) the female was maybe an EX,? we all know about the thai males fragile ego, and their jealousy, so was it an out and out murder of the poor female and the robbery was just a means to an end. just thinking aloud and he did say, he was bored with his wife

Yes but they brought the son in as he had access to the gun .

Probably ruled out the father straight away.

For what it's worth, my Thai partner has gleaned this from the Thai news, "His wife gave the clue to the police".

I have mentioned this on the other thread out today. Apparently, according to a Thai news clip, this guy had a broken leg some while back which left him with a slightly abnormal walk. Apparently his stance and walk matched that of the attacker. Think this would need to be confirmed though. I'd bet he was 'identified' by some, shall we say, interested or informed person(s) for such a swift result.

I reckon they have known for a while.

As the father is ex police they have probably been doing some negotiations in terms of sentence, stuffed envelopes etc

Expect to see him very soon with a bald head and yellow robes on!

truth is his wife dobbed him in

Like most crimes here, they are solved by someone ratting out someone else. 

 

Sounds like every man and his dog knew who had done this for several days but he was reasonably well connected (obviously not sufficiently connected to warrant a Burmese scapegoat or a police escort to a private jet) so the police had to make sure an understanding was in place before he was arrested.

 

I'd wager he wanted the pregnant girl dead so he tried to kill 2 birds with one stone by stealing some gold to pay off gambling debts at the same time as he killed her (which also had the benefit of blurring the real motive behind the killing).

For a teacher this guy is not very bright. He used his father's gun, he used a relative's bike and drove home in front of the CCTVs. He hid the gold in his aunt's house and killed his mia noi duh !! Doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to find him.

They're from Isaan. They dine on the floor, not the table.

 

At least you got the utensil correct.

With a Thai bendy fork, it would be a veeeerrrrryy prolonged death. He should invest in one from Ikea.

I get the disbelief in your writing but that comment suggests that you have little idea of the science and technology behind police and forensic detection. I mean this in a positive way. I read a couple of books recently on forensic pathology and on palynology and the things they can find ...

I didn't say that, I was just noting that he didn't kill the kid in cold blood. 

 

If the other two people were shot in cold blood, and I think they were, then you can assume that because the child was killed as part of his rampage, he was also killed in cold blood. He was indiscriminate, he didn't care who he shot.

Yeh I agree, the only difference was that he didn't aim for the kid. 

It was just a note, I wasn't trying to absolve him one iota of his heinous crime

Plus he shot more people than just the ones that died.

 

It is great he was caught.  Now the big question is like other things that happen here will the story just quietly go away.

Hopefully there will be real justice.  This is an evil person no matter what.
