It's a fair cop

re: "Cops culpable in condo rape" (BP, Editorial, January 11, 2022)

Dear editor,

The Bangkok Post writes, again, of "a systemic flaw within the Royal Thai Police." But consistent with his other promises solemnly sworn as exculpatory excuses in May 2014 of long overdue reform, didn't Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha already reform all that sort of thing years ago? Surely it was all a done deal long before Royal Thai Police poster boys like Joe Ferrari selflessly exemplified sacred benevolence for Thai society by torturing a drug suspect to death in an honest mistake with his colleagues at work that was unfortunately recorded then shared so that the Thai public saw exactly how their self-alleged guardians acted when they thought themselves free of inconvenient openness, transparency, and accountability.
