| Noyes with US Ambassador |
‘It’s him. He’s the one with the blow-job site!’
“All these documents are made up. They have been faked by that man Mr. Drummond. I am not going to accept any documents without a government stamp”.
Mr. Noyes, 57, was giving evidence in a libel prosecution brought by himself and British-Australian David Hanks.
(
(Apologies – this post was taken down for 24 hours – due to actions without our control)
He spoke in a loud voice, close to shouting, after being shown a ‘Who is’ search which showed he had reserved the internet domain ‘officialblowjobs.info’ under his own address.
“I have the proof. I have the proof!” he said asking David Hanks to get it. Hanks returned with the latest ‘Who Is’ entry which shows the site has indeed been transferred to a Mr. Andrew Drummond, but the telephone numbers and address given for him are false.
At one point during the trial the judge said: ‘I remember. You’re a lawyer aren’t you?’
Drew Noyes did not initially answer the question (Comment: As he did not immediately answer most questions) saying he was of course not allowed to practice law in Thailand but he had attended many law seminars and had even organised a Law Seminar for expats in Pattaya.
He said he and his team of experts gave advice to foreigners and his lawyer (he then pointed to his counsel ) then handled the cases.
(His counsel had previously announced that he would not be taking any more Drew Noyes cases)
Later he was asked: “But have you attended a law academy?’
“What you do you mean law academy?”
The judge intervened: “Have you any legal qualifications? Have you a degree?”

“Yes, I have a degree.”
“Do you have a law degree? What is your degree for?”
“I have a degree in journalism. My major was in journalism.”
Continuing his evidence Noyes said: “Your honour you must understand I do not care about Drummond, but I am a family man with children and I have been called a pimp.”
Asked how many children in Thailand he replied eight by three different mothers only one of whom he had married.
Drew Noyes who launched the ‘Pattaya Times’ newspaper and David Banks are suing Andrew Drummond for libel over comments by a poster on his site called Elizabeth Saunders who summed up Niels Colov, CEO of the Pattaya People and David Hanks as pimps adding the ‘Pimp Noyes’ was associated ‘with mia nois’ (mistresses) and the Buffalo bar.
Noyes was shown a picture from the Buffalo Bar website which showed him with his arms around a bar hostess. He refused to identify himself. “Drummond probably photo-shopped it “he said.
He said that he did have a girlfriend (Anchalee) by whom he had a daughter. But he had looked after his daughter and bought his girlfriend a house and a car. He said he had recently taken her to court in Chonburi so he could get joint custody of his daughter.
He refused to accept a private eye report detailing criminal summonses issued against him in the United States and cases brought against him by the tax authorities. He insisted he had no criminal record and had paid all this taxes.
A case brought against him for extortion, he said, was a plot by Drummond and Dr. Michel Goulet the proprietor of the Thonglor Clinic. It was all lies, he said. “I am taking 40 more cases against him and i am suing in Koh Samui.”
Earlier David Hanks had told the court how disgusted he was that Andrew Drummond had sent two reporters to see his younger sister Margaret McCulloch, in Girvan, Scotland.
Asked why she stated that she knew he had run a brothel in Melbourne but did not approve, he said: “She was confused. She is an old lady. What a disgusting thing to do.”
He admitted he had a licence from the state of Victoria to run a brothel called the ‘Masquerades’ but said he merely leased it out to Chinese. He made his money from plastic.
He said: “I have a licence from the Australian government for safe sex rooms.”
But he insisted: “My girls all worked voluntarily. They are over 18. Their passports were not taken. They were not beaten. They were free to come and go. No-one forces them.”
He insisted that a pimp was someone who forced a girl into prostitution and when he was shown the Oxford Dictionary definition that a pimp was a person who lived off the profits of women who sold their bodies for sex he said: “Every dictionary is different.”
The case continues:
I think it was obvious he was going to try and pull this stunt when you exposed he'd changed the domain owner to "Andrew Drummond" a couple of months ago. Is he really that much armature to think any judge would be convince by his dramatics, the crassness of this has Noise written all over it…I wonder, the document that old flab and blab Wanks presented regarding the name change, did that have a government stamp? I think not.
Wanks was "into plastic" was that condoms or his new "plasticized" face?
The whole case is a sham, a feeble excuse to waist yours and the courts time and resources…..who the hell is Wanks to say “every dictionary is different? How bloody arrogant, what a disgusting excuse for humanity.
Old flab and blabs sister is YOUNGER and he has the audacity to say she’s an "old lady". This imbecile really does beggar belief. ?
In fairness I believe threats and accusations like these should be taken as "tongue in cheek".
Who is Hanks trying to fool. He ran a brothel. He used the phrase, 'my girls' !! He is obviously as big a liar and just as deluded as Noyes and Goldie. The third stooge in this puerile game.
I commented last year that the judges are not fools and tend to be well educated and would see through Drew Noyes's pretence of being a lawyer. Mr Noyes has previously misquoted Blacks to suggest a lawyer is someone interested in law, which infers that anyone who has spent 4 years at University studying for a law degree and several years studying to pass Bar exams is just as well qualified as a journalism major.
Andrew, you have now exposed two foreigners without the most basic grounding in legal principles, evidence and court procedure holding themselves out as lawyers to the gullible and one Solicitor whoi has been struck off in his home country practicing in Thailand.
The legal profession in Thailand is restricted to Thai nationals, foreigners cannot practice as lawyers unless they have grandfather rights from before the regulations were introduced. Apart from a few elderly Americans in Bangkok I have not met any who have grandfather rights and the real foreign lawyers in Thailand tend to be managers of legal practices rather than practitioners. The judge will of course know this and is naybe assessing whether Mr Noyes has crossed the line and given legal advice.
Why do people like these live in Thailand or anywhere? They would be bored if the legal problems went away since conflict & strife have become central to their daily lives – like a daily constitutional. Life is so beautiful & so short. To think there are some who spend many years and lots of dollars simply fighting each other to the death. Sad lives full of anger, offense and topped with lots of lies. shame
Giovanno di Stefano was convicted earlier this year and jailed for 14 years for deception and other offences. He pretended he was a lawyer and advocate (though he had no legal qualifications or been admitted to any Bar) and represented Gary Glitter (whom you know Andrew) Sadam Hussein etc.
That is how serious a deception it is to pretend to be a lawyer, judges will not give you a slap on the wrist. Mr Noyes is probably going to regret calling himself a lawyer and from your report I suspect the judge is already fully aware of Mr Noyes and his claims and just wanted to get it on the record before he sent him packing.
Indeed, Noyes will argue he runs a law office and employs Thai lawyers who do the actual work. Where he is done is the fact he clearly advertised as an "American Lawyer" when he was not. Sooner or later his claims of being brought to Thailand under Royal Proclamation are going to come back to bite him big time.
