UPDATE: According to several Thai media outlets (and colleagues privately messaging me, thanks for that btw), there was *no permission* given to anyone, let alone @CNN to center the crime scene at the Nong Bua Lamphu daycare center. (See next tweets) #กราดยิงหนองบัวลําภู
“Even (…) crime scene investigators needed the local cops to open the place for them. Thai media can’t get in either, same like the families that wanted to retrieve the personal items for the funeral,” writes @ittipat_tv. #กราดยิงหนองบัวลําภู
“The deputy Naklang district chief confirms no permission was sought (…) the Naklang district police superintendent says the police tape clearly shows its off limits and insists no special exception was given (…),” reports @Nongnapat_PPTV. #กราดยิงหนองบัวลําภู

So…@CNN aired a story on the aftermath of the Nong Bua Lamphu daycare shooting - and somehow “was allowed inside the scene of the crime.” There’s no freaking way they were allowed as it was closed off! What the hell have they done to get inside?! #กราดยิงหนองบัวลําภู
Thanks a colleague at the scene we see the @CNN crew climbing over the fence into the daycare center after they were (in their own words) “allowed” to film inside. I see no guards or officials accompanying them in this shot. #กราดยิงหนองบัวลําภู
I would love to hear @cnn @CNNPR clarify how their crew was giving access inside an active crime scene - with blood still splattered everywhere - with numerous officials around there. I sincerely hope for anyone involved they didn’t just jumped the fence. #กราดยิงหนองบัวลําภู

2/9

Over the years, I've been researching Thailand's problem with guns, grappling with why the nation sees high levels of gun violence. There are more guns in circulation than most places in the world.
3/9

Some say these kinds of shootings are symptomatic of the military state -- a product of a system that too often seems to encourage violence. Others say the root of the issue comes down to a deadly combination of unchecked mental health issues and access to firearms
