A Thai man cited repeated arguments on inheritance with his father as a motive for drowning him and his younger sister in the Isaan province of Sakon Nakhon. He insisted the crime was committed without mental illness, alcohol or drug use.

 

Officers from the Phang Khon Police Station arrested 35 year old Warut Datephumee for the premeditated murder of his father and sister after the discovery of their dead bodies in metal boxes on January 9.

Warut admitted to killing his family members but did not reveal the motive behind the murder until yesterday, January 10. Warut finally told the police that the dispute between him and his father was the cause.

 

Warut said the conflict broke out at the end of last year. Every time they argued, his father threatened to end their relationship and cut off the inheritance he was allegedly entitled to. He was stressed that he could not impress his father in any way and planned the murder.

hear hear, they are awful, aren't they.

His father sounds like he was a very sensible man. He was very unimpressed with this little worm, who never amounted to anything. 

 

Oh I might not be able to get any money, I think I'll just go ahead and destroy my whole family. 

Money number one.

Nothing new.

Nasty POS.

So killing him was his solution....    brain dead.

This kid probably thinks that 2 plus 2 equals 22. He doesn't seem to have been able to consider that there would be consequences for his actions.

Quite common.

 

The fact that he's going to jail and won't see a penny now marks him as not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

 

But why on earth get into metal boxes as a favor for him?

 

Weird.

 

Just read the latest explanation. Still weird. And poor sister as well following the father.

This brings more questions than answers. Did he bought material and weld these boxes in advance? How did he get people inside of them? How did he drove it to the river? How did he throw it in? How was it found?
