Tray Scot Addresses Tagging Mind to Set Up Multiple Meetings Before Wedding - Concerned About Her Mental Health

Tray Scot revealed on a talk show that he attempted to warn his sister-in-law Mind before her wedding about undisclosed family abuse involving a child, but said his attempts to communicate were rebuffed and legal action followed instead.

10h ago Khaosod

On the talk show Thok Mai Thiang, Tray Scot opened up about his life experiences and family violence issues. Host Tin Chokkamolagit asked about an Instagram story Tray had posted where he tagged his sister-in-law Mind, attempting to arrange multiple meetings before her wedding. When asked why he posted this and why previous communication attempts had failed, Tray explained: "I was just trying to tell her it was dangerous. There's something she didn't know about. I was trying to tell her that."

When asked if he wanted to share the truth about what he experienced, Tray responded: "Yes, I think she should know what she's marrying. What happened to the child isn't something that disappeared - we don't know if it will happen to other children. This is something we need to tell and warn about. I don't think it's fair for a woman to enter a marriage without knowing the real truth about her partner. It's disrespectful to that person's life, so I wanted to reach out and tell her."

Asked if he received a response, Tray said: "Yes, we talked back and forth. It seemed like they wanted it to stay just between siblings and mom, to clear it within the family. But clearing it means covering it up. I tried to clarify with them before the wedding, but nothing came of it. Then I was surprised to get lawsuit documents posted on my house."

When asked if his sister-in-law knew about this before it became news, Tray stated: "I don't know if her husband told her anything about this. I don't know. But she didn't learn about it from me. We didn't get a chance to talk. She only found out when I made the video."

Regarding his sister-in-law's response posting property documents, Tray said: "But posting those documents isn't appropriate because it shifts the focus from family abuse to a property issue. That was never our intention. No property is more important than a child's life and this situation. But I think he probably didn't understand."

Tray expressed sympathy for Mind and hopes she takes care of her mental health during this time. When asked if he wanted justice and if his sister-in-law leaving her husband would be considered justice, Tray clarified: "No, because we see the root cause as being my brother and mother, not my sister-in-law. What she chose to do wasn't our goal. It doesn't fix what happened."

"It's just sad for her and what she has to do. I sympathize with her and want her to take care of her mental health right now. I think what she's gone through isn't easy. I want her to take care of herself. I feel sorry for her too."

11h ago Khaosod

Police have arrested a group of Myanmar teenagers accused of attacking a 16-year-old Thai boy in a 10-on-1 assault. The incident occurred on Sukhumvit Road near Chong Lom Temple in Bang Lamung District, Chachoengsao Province, after a social media post describing the attack went viral. Officers from Bang Lamung Police Station, tourist police, and immigration officials apprehended the entire gang for questioning on May 18-19, 2025.

All suspects admitted to participating in the assault. However, one member of the Myanmar group told investigators that Thai youths had first threatened them with a gun-like object to steal a pair of Converse shoes, and that they only intervened to help their friend. He requested that police review CCTV footage from before the incident to verify his claim of self-defense.

Police stated they will conduct a thorough re-examination of both parties' statements and coordinate with relevant agencies, including child welfare professionals since a minor was involved. Both sides will face charges if evidence proves wrongdoing. The 'Thai Won't Tolerate' activist group, which closely followed the case, expressed satisfaction with the swift police response and successful apprehension of all suspects.

DJ Ton Horm Clarifies Allegations of Being Linked to Celebrity Dating 17-Year-Old, Emphasizes Two Legal Boundaries She Maintains

DJ Ton Horm denied allegations linking her to a celebrity secretly dating a 17-year-old, stating she maintains strict legal boundaries against relationships with minors and involvement in affairs.

12h ago Khaosod

DJ Ton Horm has publicly denied allegations that she is the celebrity secretly dating a 17-year-old, following online speculation that led the boy's mother to prepare statutory rape charges. On May 18, Ton Horm Sakunla Tienpairoj spoke at the PD MUT Ubon Ratchathani launch event at Fake Club on Ratchada Soi 4, firmly stating the allegations do not apply to her. She acknowledged that her public image and personality may have made her an easy target for such comparisons, but emphasized two critical legal boundaries she has always maintained: she does not engage with minors, and she does not become a third party in relationships, as both are illegal matters that could result in prosecution.

Regarding the accusation of dating a 17-year-old, Ton Horm stated: "I want to tell everyone here clearly that I would never disappoint in that way, because I have never been with someone that young. When the news came out, I realized my image fit the description so perfectly it seemed like the story was written about me. If you scroll through the comments, you'll see people mentioning a certain female DJ, but that DJ doesn't think about anyone else. That's just how my image is, and it seems very characteristic of me."

She explained that she was not angry at those making the accusations, noting that after reviewing the industry, she couldn't find anyone else with a similar public image or lifestyle that matched the story. "I felt like my image was quite distinctive," she said.

When asked if the news caused her distress, Ton Horm clarified: "There's no shock because I wasn't dating anyone during that time period. Do I reflect on myself? Yes, but definitely not at 17, because I'm aware I'm a celebrity and I can't act recklessly. I have a reputation to maintain and can't leave evidence. So this has never been something I've done."

She reiterated her strict adherence to legal boundaries: "The two things I've always been cautious about are statutory rape and being a third party in a relationship, because these are illegal matters that could result in prosecution. So these are things I've never done."

When asked if she would sue those hinting she was the person involved or if certain comments felt defamatory, Ton Horm mentioned there was one particularly harsh comment that hurt her deeply, but did not specify whether legal action would be taken. She noted that people had begun commenting more frequently that it was her, which is why she felt compelled to post a clarification statement.

Arsenal Wins as Expected After Home Victory Over Burnley – Five Points Clear

Arsenal defeated already-relegated Burnley 1-0 at home to extend their Premier League lead to five points, with Kai Havertz scoring in the first half.

15h ago Khaosod

In an English Premier League match on May 18, Arsenal, currently topping the table, hosted visiting Burnley. Arsenal were in pursuit of the championship, while Burnley sat 19th and were already mathematically relegated.

Arsenal broke the deadlock in the first half with a goal from a corner kick. Bukayo Saka provided the assist for Kai Havertz, who finished in the 37th minute to make it 1-0 before halftime.

The second half saw a tense moment when Havertz made a hard challenge on Lesly Okomuchu. VAR reviewed the incident to determine whether it warranted a red card for a dangerous tackle, but the referee ultimately ruled it was not a sending-off offense, leaving both teams with 11 players on the pitch.

No further goals were scored, and Arsenal secured a 1-0 victory over Burnley. With 82 points from 37 matches, Arsenal remained in first place and maintained a five-point lead over Manchester City in second, though City had played only 36 games at that point.

Amnesty International Reports Global Death Sentences Hit 44-Year High

Executions reached a 44-year high in 2025 with at least 2,707 people put to death across 17 countries, a 78 percent surge driven largely by Iran and Saudi Arabia's use of capital punishment for drug offenses.

16h ago Khaosod

Amnesty International has released data showing that executions have reached their highest level in 44 years since records began. At least 2,707 people were executed across 17 countries in 2025, representing a 78 percent increase from at least 1,518 executions in 2024. The annual global report on capital punishment and executions indicates that the rise stems from a small number of governments that continue to rule through fear.

Iran carried out at least 2,159 executions, more than double the 2024 figure, while Saudi Arabia executed at least 356 people. Both countries extensively use capital punishment for drug-related offenses. Kuwait increased executions from 6 to 17, Egypt from 13 to 23, Singapore from 9 to 17, and the United States from 25 to 47.

The 2025 figures exclude China, which is believed to carry out thousands of executions annually, making it the world's leading executioner. Nearly half of all 2025 executions were drug-related offenses, totaling at least 1,257 cases—46 percent in China alone, followed by Iran with at least 998, Saudi Arabia with 240, Singapore with 15, and Kuwait with 2.

Some countries are expanding capital punishment to cover more drug-related crimes. Despite rising execution numbers, executions remain concentrated in a small group of nations, with only 10 countries carrying out executions every year over the past five years. Four countries have resumed executions after a hiatus. By the end of 2025, 17 countries carried out executions, while 113 countries have abolished capital punishment for all crimes, and 145 countries total have abolished or suspended it either in law or practice.

A mechanic riding in a freight train cab initially mistook a bus blocking Bangkok tracks for an advertisement sign, alerting the driver only 300 meters away; both pulled the emergency brake but the collision killed 8 people on May 16.

19h ago Khaosod

A mechanic riding alongside a freight train driver has recounted the moments leading up to a catastrophic collision, explaining that he initially mistook a bus blocking the tracks for an advertisement sign until they drew closer. He quickly alerted the driver and both men pulled the emergency brake.

May 18 – Investigators have released new details about the freight train No. 2126 (Laem Chabang-Bang Sue) collision with Air-conditioned Bus Route 206 at the Makkasan railway crossing beneath the Airport Rail Link station on Asoke-Din Daeng Road in Bangkok. The collision resulted in a fire, killing 8 people and injuring more than 30 others on the afternoon of May 16.

Investigators examined CCTV footage near the scene and identified two people in cab seat No. 2 before the collision: Somphon (46), the freight train driver, and Siriphumi (21), the mechanic sitting beside him.

During questioning, Siriphumi revealed to authorities that from a distance of approximately 500 meters before reaching the intersection, he saw what appeared to be a parked bus that looked like an "advertisement sign." Only when the train drew to within 300 meters did he realize it was actually an air-conditioned bus blocking the tracks. He immediately signaled the driver, and both men pulled the brakes.

The train was traveling at approximately 35-40 kilometers per hour at the time of impact. Siriphumi confirmed he did not hear any radio communication and saw no one waving a red flag to warn them.
