Two Thai students found dead in Seattle apartment

By The Nation

 

 

Two Thai female students were found dead in their apartment in Seattle, Washington, on Tuesday morning but police said they were not looking for any suspects.

 

The Seattle Police Department website said the case was being investigated.

 

The King County Medical Examiner’s office is still conducting its investigation into this case. The website did not identify the nationality of the deceased but Thai community news outlets confirmed that both the students were Thais.

 

Police were alerted by the manager of a University District apartment building who conducted a welfare check at a unit in the building and found a seriously injured woman inside.

 

Around 9.30am, officers responded to the alert from the manager and went to an apartment building in the 4300 block of 15th Avenue NE. They found two women in the room who were already dead.

 

Homicide investigators reached the scene to determine the circumstances of their deaths, and whether any other individuals were involved.

 

According to Thai news outlets, both students were reportedly stabbed to death.

 

Police have not yet revealed the names of the deceased.

Clearly a suicide pact.

Police are investigating the deaths of two people found in an apartment across the street from the University of Washington campus in Seattle.

 

Officers found the bodies when they were responding to a call from a building manager about 9:30 a.m., according to a Seattle Police Department blotter post. In an initial tweet, police said they were responding to a stabbing with injuries.

Clearly you didn’t bother to fully read the report. 

Homicide investigstors are trying to determine what happened and whether there were other people involved. 

 

RIP to the 2 young girls and condolences to their families.

Well sad but at least it will be investigated properly there by the police.  Unlike the cover ups that would happen had 2 foreigners been found dead in Thailand

One of my daughters attends the UW and lives 3 blocks away though she's on Summer break now and working elsewhere. A lot of fear in the area now given the dearth of details and information from the Seattle PD. Every apartment complex in that area has plenty of closed circuit cameras and most have outer security doors just to get into the lobby. A day and a half on from the discovery of this horrible crime and virtually no news available to the public. I hope they know a helluva lot more than what they're saying.

My comment was based on what the RTP would have said in a similar situation. Clearly lost on you.

An ill attempt at humour, very sad.

In Thailand, they would've rushed to the scene.

[puukao]

Why no information?  Don't alarm the public.  What could be so alarming?  Is someone paying to cover up this story?  Why do they have 112 false stories ready to publish?  Why is the head of the CIA and FBI at Starbucks right now?  Why has this given a Defcon 4 rating in 189 Countries???

 

I think we all know this is not a normal murder.  Who wants to pay me to fly there and solve this?  Seattle is expensive.  I need 5 million baht.  Anyone?

I got what you were saying... I was thinking the same thing but you beat me to the post...

Like you say... humour is lost on some people!

Joint suicide... case closed.. (try again)

[NCC1701A]

are the Seattle police arresting people on Facebook yet?

[InfinityandBeyond]

King County Sheriff's Dept has also issued ongoing arrest warrants for anyone who shares or reports this news. 

Boeing, Starbucks and Microsoft (among others) have all expressed concern about the "image" and tourism industry of Seattle and VPOTUS has dispatched his newly appointed sycophant to investigate the "so-called" deaths in under 24 hrs, discredit the victims, and criminally charge any and all who bring this tragedy to light under sweeping legislation that ignores basic constitutional rights.

And some people have the humour of a school kid in the playground. 

Having found the block the numpties function on TV has been a great find.

Give the police Homicide officers some time and don't beg for details that could hinder a proper investigation. This is not a local-yokel area of the US and be assured a professional investigation will be conducted. Sympathy to their families and friends.

Indeed, and there you have it; this happened in the US, and we have confidence the police will do a proper job.

The reporter should have said the police "have no suspects" at this time. They certainly are looking to see who might be responsible.
