Before Khuang Par, 27, was found dead in a dumpster in Indianapolis last month, a court granted her protection from her husband, court records show.

 

Police believe Par was the victim of domestic abuse by Peter Van Bawi Lian in Colorado Springs, Colorado, according to a probable-cause affidavit. Documents say Lian choked his wife during an argument. He reportedly yelled, "I'm going to kill you," in their native language, Burmese, before releasing her neck.

 

A protective order was issued Dec. 3, after Lian was arrested in Colorado Springs on charges of second-degree assault and menacing, the affidavit states.

 

Weeks later, Par's body was discovered on the south side of Indianapolis, police said. On Wednesday, Lian, 21, was charged with murder in Par's death. The U.S. Army soldier is also accused of military desertion, according to a press release from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.

For a minute there, I thought the perp was going to be a Thai..... 

A " Quality " Tourist arrived ... 

I expect he is in Myanmar by now.

It would be really funny if someone posted "A 500 Baht fine and a Wai"

Welcome !

What a pathetic piece of crap. Doesn’t matter what country or race, there  are evil people worldwide. If he’s still in Thailand I hope someone recognizes him and he’s caught. RIP innocent young lady. 

wait till the US military gets him back. They will know what to do with him.

Troll post and replies removed.

 

And we know how much the Thais love the Burmese.
