I am afraid they plan to make it look like they trie to make justice now and after some time when it is out of the public focus silently just "forget" it. But I hope they cannot do this anymore with the students waking up and wide spread internet and social media. May new times arrive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Nkpjed Posted August 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2020 They dropped all charges thinking everyone would forget about it in a week as per usual here but when that didn’t happen they scrambled buying “new” witnesses claiming this spoiled rich brat was not at fault. Now they realize that’s not going to do it either so they’re going to try to appease the public by charging him with drug use and speeding. ThIs way they can claim justice was done he will pay for these crimes. The problem is they’re not fooling anyone. He will not pay for his crimes because he is protected by a very wealthy family so they may as well just come out and say it. It’s the way it has always been here. What a complete circus. You would have to be a moron to believe all this <deleted> they are spewing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchadian Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-53649421?intlink_from_url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world&link_location=live-reporting-story Thailand's attorney general has ordered a new investigation into the heir to the Red Bull energy drink fortune over the hit-and-run killing of a policeman. Prosecutors said new evidence showed that Vorayuth Yoovidhaya was driving much faster than first believed and might have had cocaine in his system, allowing them to reopen the case. It comes after previous charges were dropped last month, sparking outrage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyHarry55 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 3 hours ago, scorecard said: True of course, but if there was a 'trial by public discussion' of the unethical aspects of this case (and others) and that trial by public discussion forced the government/police/judiciary to become much more professional, much more balanced and push towards proper process and fair judgments maybe things might change.. But is the Thai public ready to become loud enough to start a 'trial by public discussion'? No clear answer but I'm getting the feeling that the PM realizes that things can't continue like they have been and realizes that it's time to listen to the forward party, the students etc. But is there another 'player' pushing the PM? Yes I completely agree lets hope but can't see the Old Dinosaurs listening to the Students especially not the Generals even today they have to prostrate to Teachers. Yes but who?

Hitting a bike at that speed would not result in it being wedged under the bumper and upright with minimal damage, it would be launched into the air like an aircraft taking off. Except that the bike was also travelling in the same direction at an unknown velocity. If, for example we assume 80kmh the differential speed is about 90kmh and as with a stationary impact, the energy to accelerate a body into motion is different along with the reaction of the bike from the impact force. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, however the reality is that also put on open/public display, for all Thais and foreigners to see, their own inept, unprofessional and unethical ways. The RTP should be shut down and replaced by a team of proven to be ethical army officers (and they do exist), and this team tasked with identifying the good cops and elevating them as appropriate to form a NEW RTP. Not easy but this type of action has been taken before. Forty years ago the custome department of a nearby country was totally out of control, the government negotiated for a large team of customs people to come to xxxx for 10 years. The country totally closed their customs department and the new team moved in supported by police from their home county. Police from the foreign country also formed a team to investigated alleged rogue local customs officers, and many were charged and jailed. Meanwhile the nearby country started a new customs department, all previous members totally barred etc etc. It worked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyxfingers Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Previously, the speed of Vorayuth's Ferrari at the time of the accident was allegedly 80 kph (50 mph) but Prayut said, according to an expert opinion not previously included in the police report, the speed was closer to 170 kph (105 mph). "This is new evidence according to the law." Expert opinion is new evidence. 555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesimps Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 (edited) Even if he somehow manages to wriggle out of the main charges, he should be done for missing eight (R) eight summonses. That indicates to me that this goit is convinced of his "above the law" standing. If you or I missed one summons, the police would be on us like a ton of bricks.

klauskunkel Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 16 hours ago, bluesofa said: I thought the figure of 170kph was the one everyone has been quoting for years, not 80kph? from a April 2017 article by Jonathan Head: "The police believe from security camera videos, the distance the car travelled after the crash, and the injuries that instantly killed Sergeant-Major Wichian, that Mr Vorayuth must have been speeding, they estimate at around 170km/h (106mph) in an 80km/h zone. His lawyers have denied this." so, the speed numbers are: 1) 170km/h initial police estimate 2) 80km/h revised/renegotiated estimate 3) 60km/h newly dead witness estimate 4) 170km/h back again, but this time it's an expert estimate and round, and round, and round it goes and where it goes nobody knows... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
