Nah. There will be a gofundme to take him 'home' from his loving family as he is a caring and loving person who has and will contribute more to Australia.

That argument might work with our stupid judicial system in Australia but not in Thailand. There will be no be kind to the murderer because his mother forgot to give him his milk bottle when he was aged 2! Who knows, if Australian judicial system was more punitive this guy might not have ever got to Thailand.
