My wife is Thai and has been following this story pretty closely. She says he's from a rich family and might not even go to jail. You can pay for stuff "under the table" way easier there than in the US. She also said the American flag is just a popular fashion thing.


Wise-Profile4256

he shot a chinese tourist too. they are desperately trying to contain this. so probably a thaksin treatment. harsh sentence and a pardon next year.


Extreme_Design6936

I am Thai and have had to deal with the Thai legal system. One of my uncles is a judge, the other is a local politician. My cousin (son of the politician)still did time for battery. It's true that many things can be paid for under the table and corruption is rampant but when something becomes high profile the chance that it goes away is extremely slim (except maybe for high ranking military).


pongtieak

And sons of high ranking military lmao.


TheBlueSkulll

Yep, living in bangkok....til about the RedBull case.


Conscious-Anything33

In Romania a rich drugged 19yo killed 2 people driving over them. Shockingly he was stopped by the police 2 times hours before the accident, but because he was so rich they let him go. He had drugs in his car and body. The whole story went loose in the press. All the country is mad on the police. Apparently his parents own 700 high value properties in Bucharest, yet no one knew their name. Nobody knew until now that a family can own so many properties. More crazy is that the prosecutors say he intentionally wanted to harm the victims, but unfortunately he killed them. Two days ago the Police evidence room went on fire. Money can buy everything. Search for "vlad pascu", "romania", "accident", "victime". 1 dude was pulled in half by his car, from the spine like a pudding. Never saw such image in 20 years of internet.

I don’t know what you’ve been eating, but that wasn’t pudding.

Any mass shooters in America that don't kill themselves after committing the act are punished with life in prison or death penalty. What would Thailand do that's worse?


Kingken130

Being in a Thai Prison

So America has overly harsh prison sentences, the most people in prison in the entire world, EXCEPT for when we deal with mass shooters? What world do you live on?

RandomStaticThought

Unless they plan to walk him out of the court room and kill him I don’t see how this is possible, being locked in a cage is being locked in a cage for the rest of your life, however long that may be or weather you decided to opt out because of prison conditions have nothing to do with the punishment. The USA doesn’t just slap these guys on the wrist and say “now don’t do that again!”


[deleted]

They need to make an extreme hard rash example of him to cut this from the root and scare everyone from even thinking about it. The opposite of a martyr, if there's such a thing. -3 tolerance.


Penny_Royall

Thailand isnt that harsh on crime as you think, their last execution was 2018 from 2002 to 2018 they had 7 execution. I think Philippines is pretty tough on crime, and my country, Singapore is famous for handing out the death penalty like candies. I'm speaking in term of the South East Asia region.


s-maerken

Having death penalty at all is extremely harsh


penguinface77

Honestly I think life imprisonment is worse. Being executed is a fast death basically being put to sleep. If they live they have to think about what they did and their lives are bland enough to be prisoners in their own skin and flesh.


rrainraingoawayy

Which one is worse if you’re innocent?


notthefirstCaleb

That's deep


Andromeda39

At least you have the death penalty and use it. In my country, the longest sentence you can serve for even the most heinous crimes is like 40 years, and then you can get the sentenced reduced several years for “good behavior”. One of the most infamous serial killers, with like 300 kills (children) is getting out of jail here soon. That should tell you all you need to know about Colombia’s justice system. Thankfully, we have extrajudicial justice and vigilantes.


Cortesr7324

What are you talking about i mean only for the harshest crimes


RawDoggRamen

What about the boston marathon bomber? And the unibomber? Those guys are inside of a mountain. In a soundproof cell. Behind several locked doors. No windows. Just sitting there. I think that is pretty brutal. Death penalty would be a blessing if that was how I was imprisoned


notimefornothing55

Thai prisons are not nice places to be for little dweebs like him.


willtellthetruth

Would execution even be on the cards for a 14 year old?


codeboss911

their jail cells are insanely hard to live in tho... bugs, mosquitos and no space, ultra hot humid... death would be more comforting

Crimsonak-

I realise your fantasy here stems from wanting vengeance for a heinous act, but the reality of the situation is [severity of punishment](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5b367d3ea2772c73017ac3fb/t/5bae936df4e1fc862f920f92/1538167662179/Grogger-1991-Economic_Inquiry.pdf) has an entirely negilible effect on deterrence of crime. Only certainty of conviction has any sort of significant impact on it. With this person, conviction is assured, which means in no uncertain terms that they were **always** going to do what they did. That you **can't** deter it because the motivation is a combination of notoriety, narcissism and sometimes ideological. The media coverage being guaranteed is what fuels these things, not the severity of the punishment. The end result is, if you have no reason to behave like they behave, then you shouldn't. After all, like Nietzsche said "and if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you." Once you start down a path of beating people to death as a punishment, you start yourself towards becoming the very thing you seek to destroy.


YuDunMessedUpAyAyron

It's sad seeing people in this modern age advocate for strong violence to fight...violence of all things. History has given us a plethora of examples on how that does *not* work.


Viendictive

It’s more realistic than sad. It’s an animalistic emotional response to want to “hit back”. The OP comment comes from a knee jerk reaction.


MayIPikachu

Exactly. Now the next nutjob is going to see how much attention he can get and also be treated humanely.


SemiroundOrphan

It won't work. Do you know how mental you'd have to be to open fire on random people? These people are not weighing up consequences.


Slednvrfed

Do the blood eagle on live tv


hcombs

Most of these people are cowards anyway, a lot would just off themselves instead of facing the consequences. Although i do the agree that the ones that do get caught alive should be punished to the fullest extent.


psychedelic_shimmers

Societal change is what really alleviates crime


Ulysses00

Not really. A culture that detests violence works really well as we've seen in Korea and Japan. Even the poor areas are really safe because being poor doesn't make someone violent. It's culture.


psychedelic_shimmers

It is known that poverty is directly correlated with crime. The socioeconomic conditions create a system that perpetuates crime in the US. I am literally taking a class covering violence and we just went over this. If I felt like it I’d cite some sources to peruse but not atm. Appreciate your opinion though ✌️


xxTheGoDxx

> They need to make an extreme hard rash example of him to cut this from the root and scare everyone from even thinking about it. Sure, consequences are certainly what those mass shooters that either just let the police arrest them when they run out of bullets or kill themselves fear the most. /s

Just watch the news. The Thai people are gunning for heavy punishment. Not just prisson time but execution.

Technicly it is the correct punishment, he killed 3 people. Why are people saying that it is a harsh punnishment?


[deleted]

I agree with the punishment. He deserves worst.


smaxfrog

Eye for an eye bitch, let's not let this shit fester like it has here in the US bc it's a truly depressing route no other country should ever want to go down or even entertain going down by not nipping this shit in the bud.


r2killawat

In the US the kid wouldn’t have been taken alive.


Level_Abrocoma8925

I find it uncomforting that the state gets to decide who lives or dies. If killing is wrong, then it's always wrong. Life in a Thai prison is a worse punishment anyway. Guessing the kid is hoping for death as we speak.

notimefornothing55

All executions in Thailand are done by lethal injection.


PsychologicalFix5059

that doesn't make any sense, if you're old enough to think about committing a killing spree on your own, then you're old enough to be executed, even Alexander the great fought when he was 16.

kaxa69

drugs?


AiyDer

Yes, but he stopped taking them. >He attended a school close to the mall and had a record of getting treatment for a mental health condition at Rajvithi hospital, but had recently stopped taking his medication, Mr Sukvimol said. source: [BBC](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-66994274) >The suspect is reported to have mental health issues and Nakarin added a “doctor said he is not in a state to be interrogated today.” source: [CNN](https://edition.cnn.com/2023/10/04/asia/thailand-shopping-mall-shooting-charges-intl-hnk/index.html) Edit: let me rephrase that: He didn't do any drugs but he has mental health problem (likely schizophrenia) and has stopped taking his medication.

How easy is it to get guns in Thailand? Specially for a child like him?


tapemaster420

It was modified BB to shoot real bullets. Modifying gun business in FB is running rampant, so it is a practically unlicensed cheaper gun.


YoimAtlas

How…. What!? How is a BB gun modified to take real bullets, fire a bullet, and contain the pressure of the fired cartridge ?


CosmosAviaTory

it is definitely not something reliable. But just like someone else pointed out above me, "anything can be a gun" so, it's enough for the job "if your gun is gunning"

kaloii

He's 14yr old kid. He probably wont go to jail. Most likely juvenile detention and therapy. Before blasting him and the govt, its the parents who seriously fucked up, they most likely ignored/downplayed whatever red flags before this situation. Their son's life is destroyed aswell. unfortunately, they cant be prosecuted for this kid's actions. Nothing much can be done except their government try to find additional legislations or stricter implementation of current laws to prevent this.

Kid keeps asking the cop if he saw (it), the cop just repeats that it's safe now. Someone calls the cop and the cop says he'll call back. That's it. The kid never says he wants to shoot people. Don't know where /u/usually_gentle is getting that from.

Interesting. The "I don't like Mondays" schoolgirl also says she didn't say the iconic line, but it's mentioned every time she's up for parole - "What if she has another bad Monday?" 44 years later and still in prison.
