“This is what he faces in jail!”

A Swiss man will be imprisoned for 10 years for defacing a poster of the King of Thailand. Oliver Jufer, 57, got hammered (drunk), and decided it would be funny to deface a poster of King Bhumibol Adulyadej. Judge Phitsanu Tanbukalee (probably the Thai version of Judge Mathis) had this to say:

This is a serious crime, and he was sentenced to four years for each of five counts, for a total of 20 years. Because he confessed, the court has reduced his sentence to 10 years.

If you live in a country for 10 years, the rules should be pretty obvious. What has Switzerland decided to do about it? Oh yeah, Nothing. This guy’s only hope is a pardon from the King.
