Well they already raised the $3000 ransom price, which they offered to the "police", but they stated "the money from the GoFund me, first and foremost, will be for helping B get official and reputable legal assistance! He needs someone THERE, IN Thailand, fighting for him, on his side. The money will also be used for getting him HOME, SAFE, TO CANADA ASAP!" I'm confused, is the GoFundMe for the ransom or for a lawyer?ផោមក្លិនស្អុយ wrote:Sounds terrible.

Ha! So they raised $3000, and then thought, hey, if that worked, let's start a new one, and ask for $5000 this time.gavinmac wrote:The gofundme appeal:
In total, they've raised $4000, asking for $4000 more. Impressive really.

Are there basements in Bangkok? With all the canals and being surrounded by them with a really shallow water table I'd be surprised if there are a lot of basements. I'm here right now, can't recall ever going downstairs anywhere here.
