Were the rapists homos? No definitely not they just wanted to humiliate those men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerryd Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Well, it's been 5 days since I emailed the media outlet that initially published the story (BelfastLive). No response. Also been 5 days since I emailed the insurance provider (OUL Direct), though I wasn't expecting a response from them anyways (confidentiality concerns and such). As for the happy couple, Michael Burnett took his Facebook page down suddenly for some reason. He hadn't posted anything (public) at all in Dec (last post had been in Nov 2016). Then on 3 Jan he updated his cover photo with a pic of a cute puppy on a carpet. A couple days ago he posted another generic pic and then suddenly deleted his profile. The other guy (Gerald) apparently hasn't posted anything (public) on his page since April 2016. Notice that apparently when they finally did go to a hospital (5 days after the alleged incident), it was only to get blood tests and it was noted that Gerald had a small wound on his hand (which could have been from any number of causes). No mention of being drugged. No mention of being raped. Never told anyone at their hotel that they had been raped/robbed either. I won't be surprised if there's no evidence that they even went to a police station at all. Apparently they didn't bother when they got home either. Considering that this was their 6th trip to Thailand, it wasn't like they were starry-eyed newbies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

draks Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 If they make an insurance claim the insurance company will need a police file number to start with which by the looks of it they don't have, no hospital receipt so no claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaySonic Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 The photo seems to show Phuket Town. Does anyone know if it actually WAS in Phuket Town though? If so, i'm a bit surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned earlier, probably in Patong, lack of knowledge of Phuket made the paper use a Phuket town photo.Sent from my ROBBY using Thaivisa Connect mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rc2702 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I don't think many people did not realise it was a SS Marriage but perhaps they were taking the michael and pretending that be the case. Was pretty Clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
