Case against alleged serial killer Am Cyanide “soon to be wrapped up”

[webfact]

Police investigating alleged serial killer Sararat “Am” Rangsiwuthaporn say they believe they have enough evidence to charge her with at least 6 of the 15 murders she’s accused of. Sararat was arrested in April on suspicious of poisoning 15 people with cyanide.

 

Thailand’s deputy national police chief says investigating officers are now preparing to wrap things up. Surachate Hakparn says officers have enough evidence to charge Sararat on 6 to 7 serious counts.

 

“We have found clear evidence. We have found the actual vials of cyanide that Am ordered, and we have found traces of cyanide with Am.”

I thought they said they wrapped it up a couple of weeks ago.

Not sure finding possessing cyanide points to guilt. Unless they can prove it is the same cyanide. Isn't all cyanide the same?

Witnesses work better.

There are several combinations: Sodium Cyanide NaCN, Potassium Cyanide KCN, Hydrogen Cyanide HCN and a few other derivatives. It appears the Cyanide used in those cases where samples were available is from the same batch.
