ALFREDO Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 He has to be happy with that result. He will probably serve 4 years. I'm surprised no one has knocked him in jail though. The victims brother was a cop. Surely he has connections. Looks like he will be back posting on Thaivisa soon. I wonder if he remembers his password in 4 years time. As far as I remember, the victims boyfriend, not the brother after or even slightly same time with Dokset was a policeman with whom she had a child. Also this guy-policeman made not much afford to find her. Concerned was her family, who went to Bangkoks higher police level and got their support, which led to Dokset imprisonment.

lostmebike Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Another quality Norwegian to bless Thailand with his presence. Anyone with half a brain would realise a body in a bin for that long is gonna stink! SOM NOM NA Stig, enjoy your rot stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valentine Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 how could he live with the smell that must have been in the house I installed a new pool pump for him in a room just nearby & I can assure you there was no discernible smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALFREDO Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) I do know he had a new girlfriend who had 2 kids and if the body was really in the house for 2 years, why did she not smell it and ask why the bathroom was locked (Not the bedroom). She also was visiting him in prison after his arrest. If she thought he was guilty, do you think she would have been doing that? She had been missing for 2 years, why didn't her husband report her missing and raid his place? Why didn't he do something? Why was nothing done till Junes family in Bangkok got the Bangkok police involved to get things happening? You would think a policeman whose wife had disappeared could have done more. I believe the Phuket police wouldn't do anything.Who now will get the properties? I would guess the husband as they were in her name. The bin was well concealed. He paid money to his GFs, so he said "forbidden room" and not much more questions asked also not from the cleaning woman. She was visiting him, as she surely got money from him. I met and know a also EX GF from Mr.Dokset, living in Patong who, at least since many month at that time and when I saw her in summer 2013 was visiting him regularly, to help him with papers and bringing him things into the prison. She received money for that deeds from Dokset and Dokset's family with whom she is in contact to. Her Police man boyfriend, or husband, maybe only husband in a Buddhist style rite ceremony with whom she had a child with, had nothing to gain from her, they had as it seems only a short relationship. He was not interested afterwards where she was. Also Phuket police was not interested, Dokset seemed to have good connections with them. All her, 3? children should get the properties, I believe she was not legally married to the policeman. Edited January 30, 2015 by ALFREDO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreandre Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Sentence way too light - must have bought off the judge and the familyWhy was the sentence too light? You apparently think that 9 years is enough for taking another persons life...That's your choice.... Would you have the same attitude if your daughter was the victim?....I'll bet an emphatic no!

Sviss Geez Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Makes no sense at all. If it was an accident then why didn't he call the police? Now, if he murdered the woman, ten he would have reason to hide the body. Is this reasoning to complex? No, it's too simplistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uptheos Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Sounds a bit like The Bates Motel. Intent has not been proved and his elevator probably doesn't go all the way up either. In Europe he probably would have got secure psych hospital or a lesser jail sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sviss Geez Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 He didn't lose too much weight in prison so I guess he bribed anyone he could to live a better life than most of his cell mates can dream of. Eating reasonably well in Thai prison doesn't mean bribery has to be used, anyone can have food brought in by visitors and there is also a prison shop where food can be bought. If the normal prison meals don't appeal then better food can be ordered for the next day at relatively low cost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange conclusion. I am convinced it was not an accident, but that has to be proven. And intend was obviously not proven, I think proof would be very difficult to come by in a case like this. I think the 15 year sentence (halved for a guilty plea) was probably near the maximum considering the charge was unintentional killing - not murder. Yes, it was very likely the event was not exactly as he described it, but with a lack of evidence to prove a murder, the lessor charge and sentence is probably the best result, The family have accepted a payout and no doubt will move on with their lives. All the outraged hysteria here from the usual keyboard know-it-alls will not manufacture evidence that doesn't exist. There is no chance new murder charges, that many feel would have been appropriate, will eventuate. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreandre Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 ^^^^ ^^^ I agree with all you say....on the proviso that he had done the full 15 years [and yes i know it is the law here for half in exchange for guilty plea] It doesn't bring the lady back to her loved ones but i for one would feel slightly better knowing he was away from his previous luxurious lifestyle for the full time.

balo Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) I have some reservations about this case. Everyone here is very quick to condemn him here, but the same people most likely think the 2 Burmese guys on Koh Tao were set up, and I do too. Why could Stein not have been set up. There is a lot of money to be made here for someone. I have read most of the posts over the last two years, and no one here seems to doubt what the police say. I don't trust the RTP or the legal system. Many things to me don't add up. I had met Stein on many occasions and he did not seem to me that he was a madman that would do what he has been convicted of. But maybe he hid it well, I don't know. I do know he had a new girlfriend who had 2 kids and if the body was really in the house for 2 years, why did she not smell it and ask why the bathroom was locked (Not the bedroom).Thai women are normally very inquisitive the ones that look after and around the house, She also was visiting him in prison after his arrest. If she thought he was guilty, do you think she would have been doing that? Initially when the police came to his house and they said they found the body he denied knowing anything about the body. " In an interrogation he explained the authorities that the two had an argument, during which she fell down some stairs and died. When he discovered that she was dead he panicked and concealed the body." He would have been told that if found guilty that he could get a very long sentence or possibly even the death penalty. If he pleads guilty, the sentence would be cut in half and he would not get the death penalty. Maybe as her husband was a Phuket policeman he thought he would be convicted and made the story up, or that story was fed to him. She had been missing for 2 years, why didn't her husband report her missing and raid his place? Why didn't he do something? Why was nothing done till Junes family in Bangkok got the Bangkok police involved to get things happening? You would think a policeman whose wife had disappeared could have done more. I believe the Phuket police wouldn't do anything.Who now will get the properties? I would guess the husband as they were in her name. Makes no sense at all. If it was an accident then why didn't he call the police? Now, if he murdered the woman, ten he would have reason to hide the body. Is this reasoning to complex? You have to be really sick to live in the house with a body stuffed a bin for two years plus !! He needs to be in a Lunnt Bin in Norway, why should Thailand have to support their rejects !! If he was guilty he would be very sick and must have severe mental illness. Exactly. Or if there was no body in his house there was nothing he could do. Maybe the body was placed in the house during the raid. Well if your Thai bird fell down the stairs after an argument and broke her neck, would you seriously feel comfortable enough to call the police and believe they will take your word for it with no witnesses present? Na didn't think so. Being here years and knowing the way things work here does not make this course of action something that would be conceived as an act of guilt. I mean disposing of a body to me could be an valid act of guilt. Leaving her in a bedroom with your head up your ass not knowing what to do for 2 years tells me the guy was shi@@ing himself. Him calling the police when her body was fresh on the day or having the police discover her 2 year later in one of the rooms has basically had the same outcome. That is true if the story is true. car720 Why not dump the body? Why did he hang around? My thoughts exactly.He had 2 years to dispose of it. Maybe for the rent money, but if he did it and was caught he would lose everything. But if he is innocent, ........Why go anywhere? how could he live with the smell that must have been in the house I think that is a very good question. This is all just a possible explanation as to why he was in the house, and never ran away. When I met him, he always acted normal and not deranged or mentally ill. Didn't you read his statement , and also what has been told to media ? He admitted he pushed her and that it was an accident. So we know he is responsible for her death, the only question is whether it was an accident or if he did it on purpose. And why would he keep the body for 2 years if he felt it was an accident ? If it was me pushing the girl I would have called the police and an ambulance , even if it was too late to save her. No reason to hide an accidental death. No he is guilty for sure.
