Horrible thing for his poor family. 

Yes but at least he's been found, could have just been missing for years and family can't move on with life, will etc

This German ( criminal ? ) was very fond of very young girls ... Having been the customer of a 15 year old , he just avoided conviction , married a girl that was 19 while he was 57  ... made a lot of money by trading real estate ( In Thailand ? ) , drove around Pattaya in a convertible Mercedes , apparently had links to a motorcycle gang , lived the life of a " big Mack " ... and ended up in a freezer . No sympathy for him .

I wonder if all his accounts have been frozen as well?

and there's part of the reason.  Thais don't like to see foreigners making lots of money that they could have made.

[steven100]

can someone please tell did Olaf commit the crime ?    was the gf involved ?  any gardener ?

How do you know?

I guess someone did it because he didn't want that there is a body to help with a murder conviction.

If you can go for decades to jail, then there is some motivation to avoid that - I guess that is what my imagination tells me.

The previous article said something about a land deal on Koh Samui worth around 700 million baht.

It was noted in the previous thread that the victim had been involved in shady business before (namely being the "customer" of a Thai pimp that had supplied him with an underaged girl).

The deceased doesn't pass he sniff test.He had a dodgy background by the looks of it.

The Sopranos always use this method, according to Tony.

IMO the motive will come down to money, maybe it is better to have modest means. RIP.

Being all philosophical about it, no one should be really surprised that such events are occurring in Pattaya and elsewhere in Thailand, Thailand is, after all, a place where all sorts of nefarious, criminal activities are going on there all day and everyday, some comes to light, some not.

Great photo. Are they stopped in the middle of an intersection?

 

"Is that your friend in the wood-chipper?"

 

 

[steven100]

I wonder was he cut up using a hand saw, chainsaw electric, or just a meat cleaver ...... 

[VinnieK]

It's sleuthing time..

Olaf borrows a few million 

..then kills him.

 

 

[Ralf001]

Ha, Blind Freddy could see that coming !!

 

Does the person who found the carcass still get the 3 million bounty ?

But a body , even cut to pieces , is still a body .

If someone knowingly commits  a crime , it is a ' basic instinct ' to hide it to avoid punishment , nothing new here ...

Hiding it in a freezer is not very original , RTP is used to this ...

You guess what your imagination tells you ?

You do not know what you imagine ?

Confusing post .

These people come to Thailand thinking it's the wild west, assuming they can do what ever they want. 

 

If that were really the case why go to the bother of concealing the body in the freezer ?

The Sopranos were just fiction , this was real , don't you know ?

[scubascuba3]

to be fair, the police are very quick here at cracking crime and tracing people, back home this would take ages

Maybe but as it has been said ... 'You're always gonna have problems lifting a body in one piece. Apparently the best thing to do is cut up a corpse into six pieces and pile it all together. And when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it?'

They did all right in the chop up phase, but pooch screwed and left it in the deep freeze. 

Ah, the old Brick Top quote. Maybe they hadn't found anyone with a pig farm yet? ????

 

As other posters have said, given his history with underage girls it does seem that Mr Mack was living a somewhat dodgy lifestyle and simultaneously not exactly staying under the radar. I guess Mark Morrison's classic 1996 hit won't be required any time soon. 

 

The foreigners transporting the body don't seem too smart either. That box looks transparent to me!! I'm guessing these were not particularly professional hitmen.

There is a motive somewhere out there .. you do not end up like this without a reason.

1: His victims of his human Trafficking. 2; His accomplices in his underage prostitution ring, wanting their share of the profits. 3:  His family wanting to replace him with a young guy, but didn't want to lose the money. Maybe wrong on all counts, but just thinking out loud.

The thought had crossed my mind. ????  There was another one five years back (?). Forget all the details but yes, dismembered body still in the freezer. You have to find a pig farm or make other plans. Bodies in the freezer have a nasty habit of coming back at you.

[JeffersLos]

The story's chilling.

I'm not a fan of psych-things, but the act of cutting up a human corpse has got to leave a lasting mark on a person's brain.

 

 

Maybe not the first time the Perb has done this, some weirdos could enjoy it.

hree million baht reward that had been offered for his safe return here.

Well done RTP. So no reward then, the cops must be disappointed.

[thailand49]

From the story yesterday should we be surprise to his demise.  The type of act is usually a crime of passion. From stories yesterday he was clisectoday being a kiddie lover?  But those involved I have a saying " too stupid to be a  criminal. "   done in full view of camera,  body stored in a rental house? 

????

[Tropposurfer]

I wonder what the motivation for his murder was?

 

The previous conviction for sexual child abuse is awful and heinous.

I wonder if it had anything to do with that, or any current perverse behaviours he may have been acting out?

 

I'm reminded of some of the US mafia films I have seen where mob guys would cut up people then put them in industrial mincing machines or feed them to pigs. A gruesome ordeal all around.
