The full arm tattoos are a red flag. This guy could have a violent past. Possibly started to slap the girl around and went too far. I've heard from a few girls who've encountered violent customers.

Don't be silly...

77 years old with a 45yr old girlfriend from a bar and reported as frequently bringing in different girls before her. He was sure enjoying himself. 

 

Amazing what those little blue pills can do, unfortunately there comes a time when even they don't work.

Picture from responders.

 

The mysterious death of a 45-year-old Thai woman in Jomtien, Chonburi, has left local authorities perplexed, as her foreign partner was found living with her decomposing body for three days.

 

The woman, identified as Duangta Khampongsom, from Sisaket province, was discovered at approximately 13.00 on December 22, in a fifth-floor room No. 505, of a commercial apartment building in Jomtien. Police and emergency services were alerted by Mr. Prayoon Chinsai, 57, the building’s caretaker, to a report of a suspicious death. 

 

Upon arrival, they found Duangta’s body in a state of decomposition, indicating she had been dead for at least three days. She was found lying on a bed, wearing only denim shorts, with no signs of struggle or disturbance in the room.

 

 

Duangta had been staying with 77-year-old Irishman Mr. Bearach Beataidh, who had reportedly been renting the room since 16th October, initially on a daily basis and later transitioning to a monthly arrangement. 

 

Authorities quickly located Bearach, who had left the apartment earlier that morning and was walking along Jomtien Beach, in a confused and incoherent state, near the Grand Jomtien Hotel. He was taken in for questioning.

 

Bearach stated that Duangta had been working in a local bar and was  assaulted by a group of people before arriving at his apartment on 18th December. She later vomited and appeared to fall asleep. When she failed to wake up the following day, he assumed she was merely exhausted.

 

Bearach denied realising she had passed away, stating that he did not smell any odour from her body. That is why he didn’t report it or alert the apartment management.

Instead, he allowed the body to remain in the room, where it began to decompose and emit a foul odour, which spread throughout the building, prompting complaints from other residents.  He had continued to stay at the apartment with her body on the bed

 

 

Further investigation revealed that Bearach had frequently brought different women to stay at the apartment. Authorities are now questioning him further, as they remain sceptical of his account. They are working to determine whether Duangta’s death was due to natural causes, drug use, or if foul play was involved.

 

The body has been sent for a forensic autopsy to determine the exact cause of death. Investigations into the death are ongoing. No charges have been filed yet, until further evidence can confirm the circumstances surrounding Ms. Duangta’s untimely death.

Sounds like he has significant mental illness and needs to be assessed and at least diagnosed

What is wrong with that...Age difference..no, they are (were) both adults and don't need to ask anyones permission. No taking advantage ..or both do it is win/win for both

Take your wrong moral elsewhere..this is Thailand

You are looking for an argument in an empty room.

Didn’t read in the article that the deceased was of the Christian religion?

This was in response to:

"RIP to the lady...........dementia for sure and possible Covid affected his sense of smell........I still have problems smelling some things, almost five years later, like I can smell coffee just fine, but not bacon cooking."

 

Just curious, what are you referring to?

Yep....another tat freak in Thailand

He certainly doesn't look mean. However he must have known she was dead. Probably walking round for a couple of days wondering what to do. 

Nobody knows if he had dementia. 

Nobody knows if she was on drugs and nobody knows if or who assaulted her or if she was assaulted. 

Plenty of time for CCTV to be erased also. 

We will have to wait for test results and forensics.

Could be. Or just emotionally incapable of dealing with it. Lots of things
