Australian commits murder so he can send money to Thai woman he met online

An Australian man brutally murdered his ex-girlfriend after she lent him money which he sent to his Thai mistress who he met online.

 

At a hearing at Melbourne's Magistrates Court on Sunday, Peter Brown, 57, pleaded guilty to murdering his ex girlfriend, Simone Fraser.

 

Brown told the court how he had racked up $25,000 in debt after he met a Thai woman online and began sending her money.

 

With his bank accounts empty, Brown contacted Ms Fraser and asked to borrow some money.

 

She lent him $3000 which he used to send to his Thai girlfriend, Herald Sun reported.

 

In March this year, Brown arranged to meet Ms Fraser at her home in Melbourne where he said he would repay the borrowed money. 

 

However, after arriving at the property, Brown attacked Ms Fraser beating her over the head with a brick and then a golf club.

 

He then suffocated her with a plastic bag before placing Ms Fraser’s lifeless body in the back of his car and driving to a campsite some 300km where he buried the body.

 

"The offender strikes the victim with the brick a number of times initially, grabs a plastic bag and tapes it around her head," crown prosecutor Kristie Churchill told a plea hearing on Monday.

 

"It's at that point he strikes her with a golf club," she said.

 

He later tried to use Ms Fraser’s credit card to send more money to his Thai mistress.

 

At the time of his arrest two days later, Brown was on FaceTime to the Thai woman.

 

"I destroyed a nice lady, a generous lady. There's no excuse for what I did," Brown told police.

 

"I want to apologise to Simone, I'm deeply, deeply sorry to her family," he said.

 

Brown will sentenced at a later hearing.

Think with the small head, someone else gets killed.  Not even for any reason, that I can tell-- she did lend him the money, so why kill her later?  Was she calling in the loan?  Refused to give him more?  Even if so, so what-- he had no one else to borrow from?  What about that situation could possibly be worth killing her for?  She was an ex-girlfriend... not like he figured if he killed her, he got all of her money.

Why is nothing being done about this Thai lady? She could have pushed and persuaded him to send all he had, borrow and then kill to send more if necessary. Cyber bullying has sent people away before. She may not be, and is probably not, completely innocent here.

 

There's no excuse for what dude did, but I have my doubts it was an entirely one sided affair.

What would she be guilty of ? Receiving money isn't a crime. Pure speculation that she somehow forced him to send money, or told him to kill someone. It would probably be part of the investigation, looking at correspondence etc, to see if anyone else was involved..

If I understand correctly he slaughtered this poor woman in this horrible way, not to give her back... $ 3,000?:crying:

And after brutally murdering her, he then drove her body 300km away to bury - in an attempt to hide his crime.

 

After that "He later tried to use Ms Fraser’s credit card to send more money to his Thai mistress.  At the time of his arrest two days later, Brown was on FaceTime to the Thai woman."

 

Nonetheless, once arrested.... he still had the nerve to pretend that he regretted his actions!

 

"I destroyed a nice lady, a generous lady. There's no excuse for what I did," Brown told police.  I want to apologise to Simone, I'm deeply, deeply sorry to her family, he said."

 

Presumably he hopes this expression of remorse will buy him some leniency....
