Spoonman Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Well, that is the name of the game. Give a try for an action that would carry a lower penalty. Now all he has to do is prove without a reasonable doubt, that: Started a fight in a bar. and lost Left the premises of the bar in no more than a bad mood, went to a store to get a knife not bearing the caveat 'lethal' on it, Came back to the bar Had plenty of time to think about his actions Decided to plunge the knife into a man without intent to kill Then left the country I'm no judge, but darn... You missed the part where shitebull plunged the knife into the victims chest at his home..... Roid Rage is a wonderful thing EH........ Hmmmmmmm wonder if he can plead it out as a roid induced phycosis and hence not premediated ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pomchop Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 How can you stab someone to death "without intent". It would seem to me that when you go to 7 11 and STEAL a big knife then return to hunt someone down and stab them it would be pretty clear that you did intend to kill them. Nice try Pitbull and maybe you will get some to buy your story but I won't be one of them. Frankly either with or without intent I sure don't want to run into "pitbull" in some bar in a few years if he gets off with a short sentence. And yes I understand he has not yet been convicted. I also understand that a man that Pitbull attacked is now dead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuukKoeyKorat Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 "Killing without intent". In the light of the circumstances surrounding the death, what sort of half arsed, dipshit excuse is that? He had a fight. He lost. He is filmed going to 7-11 to get a knife. His adversary is stabbed to death. He does a runner. There's a motive. And a reason for premeditation. Video evidence of him buying a potentially lethal weapon. Fleeing the country doesn't help his case. How does he or his lawyer plan to defend the '..without intent' bit? Like an earlier poster noted...maybe both blokes were into home made French frying after a good night out, but the Marine slipped and fell on the knife... Guilty as hell.

scottydel Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 The sad part is this mongoloid is probably proud and now thinks that he "won" the bar fight. I bet his circle of friends back in the UK and Thai pat him on the back on a job well done. He should do hard, hard time for life at the Bangkok Hilton. That marine, may he RIP, was probably owed an apology but isntead got a knife in the chest. I agree the Thai Boxer mentality probably seeped into his tiny, underdeveloped brain and he thought he had to save his reputation amongst the idiots he hung around in touristic boxing bars. What a shame. I hope the judge shows no mercy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerryd Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 He plead guilty to "murder without intent" which only carries a 15 year penalty, IF they accept that plea ("The crime of killing without intent, however, carries a much lighter penalty – a maximum of 15 years, which could be halved at the judge’s discretion if he believes the accused confessed freely."). If they decide he committed "murder with intent" he would have faced the death penalty, but because of the extradition deal with the UK, the maximum he'll get will be life in prison (In ("If") found guilty of killing with intent, Aldhouse could be jailed for life – execution has been ruled out because of an agreement between the British and Thai governments). It appears that this guy is hoping that the Thais will accept his plea and give him half the max (i.e. 7 1/2 years) and he would (probably) be eligible for prisoner transfer after serving half that, so he could be back in the UK in a little under 4 years where he could probably apply for parole or something to get out early. If successful, watch for him to be back in Thailand in about 4 1/2 years from now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just1Voice Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) Thai Judge: Khun Alderhouse, you have been found guilty, by your own confession. I thereby sentence you to 48 hours with the Marine squad your victim was from. May God have mercy on you." Alderhouse: "OH, HE-LL NO! Your honor, PLEASE, I am BEGGING YOU, give me life with no possibility of parole. Anything! Just please don't sentence me to 48 hours with a pissed off, United States Marine squad!"

gaucho Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 IMO he's a low life scumbag who should serve everyday of the maximum sentence permissible regretting his actions that have caused such pain to the victims family and friends. What a wan*er.. agree this <deleted> started the fight ...he picked on what he thought was an easy mark but instead got a right flogging ..his ego couldnt take it ... good on the uk for allowing him to be exradited ..its only fair though obviously deal has been cut ...he wont be executed ... hope he gets life fxxk him scum .. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrerakiss Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'm a little bit concerned that one prosecution eye witness failed to turn up.

And here again, since you can't be bothered to read for yourself:British kickboxer pleads guilty to US marine murder BANGKOK, August 28, 2013 (AFP) - A British kickboxer on Wednesday pleaded guilty to murdering a former US Marine during a bar fight in Thailand, his lawyer said, reversing his previous plea. Prosecutors allege Lee Aldhouse stabbed to death 23-year-old Dashawn Longfellow -- who was in Phuket after sustaining a combat injury in Afghanistan -- in a 2010 fight in the tourist resort of Phuket. Aldhouse, known in Phuket by his ring name "The Pitbull", fled to his home country after the incident and become the first British suspect to be extradited to Thailand under a century-old treaty. "A court today read him his (murder) charge and he pleaded guilty," his lawyer Kampon Siriwatunyoo told AFP, without giving details of why he changed his plea. Phuket prosecutor Chaingsaen Panya said Aldhouse's hearing was expected to start on September 2 and would see three witnesses take the stand. Under Thai murder laws Aldhouse could face the death penalty or up to life in prison. Aldhouse fled to Britain after Longfellow was stabbed but was arrested upon arrival and detained for almost two years while he fought extradition to Thailand. He lost his extradition battle and in December last year became the first Britain in more than a century to be sent to Thailand for trial. -- ©Copyright AFP 2013-08-28 | AFP News Sponsor Published with written approval from AFP.
