Young mother charged with murder after pushing her son in the klong

Picture: Thai Rath

 

A 21 year old Samut Prakarn woman has been charged with murder by police after she admitted pushing her two year old son into a canal in Bang Bua Thong yesterday.

 

Bang Bua Thong police were called when little "James" was found floating in the Ton Nun Klong. He had been dead about three hours.

 

CCTV was studied in two spots in the area where firstly a woman dressed in an orange top has been seen leading the child. Later CCTV in another location showed the same woman walking alone.

 

Police made inquiries and found the woman who had since changed clothes waiting to catch a bus home.

 

She was 21 year old "Porn". All names were assumed to protect identities.

 

Police interviewed Porn and discovered that she is a finance company employee from Samut Prakarn. She had split up with the boy's father a long time ago.

 

She had paid her mother to look after the boy but there had been problems and she had often had to take him to work with her.

 

In the end family stress drove her to take the boy, aged just 2 years and two months to the klong and push him in, reported Thai Rath. She had been to the area and taken the boy on a motorcycle taxi to near the scene of the crime.

 

After that she had gone and changed her clothes at a friend's house. She was about to take a bus back home when she was arrested.

 

She has been charged with murder with intent.

  • That picture is heartbreaking, the little lad walking along trusting the person he should be able to trust 100%, leading him to his death.

speechless...

Never imagined mothers could do such things..    

 

Must not be 100% right in the head

So much for the Thai's constantly proclaiming what a caring society they have.   Just another victim of a Father running away from his responsibility and a Girl too young to know how to cope.

 

RIP young one, hopefully you are in a much more loving place.

This is nothing to do with "Thai society", it is about one individual's actions.  You do not know if the father "ran away from his responsibilities".

should be no jail time for this, straight out the back and executed .

Even if that was the case, it doesnt warrant throwing the little lad in the Khlong now does it.

 

Shocking behaviour, I can't imagine what must have gone through the little guys mind in the final moments. She deserves a slow and painful death!

 

RIP little man..

Yesterday a Thai told me: you are just a farrang, we are the people of the land of smiles. Not only after learning how many kids were dumped and killed this very young year, I was an inch away from kicking his butt.

The way people in this society are treating their kids while constantly propagating their high moral standards make me very sad, and sometimes angry.

This is a sad story on many levels, not helped by the foul and cruel responses on this thread to date.

Yes, you can say that again. As a parent myself, it is unimaginable that one could hurt his own child.
Shows again that life means absolutely nothing for some people.
I hope she will suffer a painful death. 

Just seen this on the television, very sad to see the cctv of her leading him to his death.
But more disturbing was that they showed the little lad in the klong as a photographer took close up photos !!
I understand that this needs to be done but not, IMHO, necessary to show this on television, a very disturbing image.

RIP little man.

Well we don't know what the circumstances were.  It is heartbreakingly tragic and hard to comprehend so I won't speculate.

R.I.P little man with Angles now 

I hope the courts lock her up for life 

Never ever be released 

I agree with the comments A Life for A Life But this never seams to be the case.

If you take a Life then yours should be forfeited also don't care who you are

Killing the mother for killing her child, makes you no better than her.

My wife, who lost her first son to a drowning accident, has been talking about this all day.

"Why she do?  How she just take son and push into canal?  She throw away like garbage."

Considering that yesterday was the anniversary of her son's death, and also her own birthday, this particular event definitely has shaken her up.  I don't get it either.  How do you detach from your own humanity to be able to do something like that.  Totally beyond me.

According to my wife, the mother admitted to the cops that she pushed her son into the canal because she didn't want to take care of him anymore.  That's brutally chilling.  My wife also mention that she will probably not have a pleasant time in jail.  She mentioned that prisoners in jails don't take kindly to individuals who have killed their parents or children.  So, even if given a life sentence, it may be a relatively short stay.
