Re_the Two Who Died

[Sojourner]

P1P,

I don't want to re-open this thread for any other reason than to know what their names are as I may know one of them. It would be a real shock to me and my family.

[p1p]

Their names were Charles Clayton Burgess, nicknamed Boom Bim in Thai and the owner of the bar. He was 39, from Box Hill in NSW. His friend was Scott Ray Sturgess, 42, from San Diego, California, on holiday in Thailand.

The main thread about this tragedy was HERE.

I shall leave this thread open for people to express their regrets.

May they rest in peace.

I was at Clayton's place during Songkran. We had a blast. Spent many nights there having a few drinks and BS_ing. Clayton was quite a character he will be missed.

Sure has the earmarks of poisoning...for two people to OD at the same time is very rare, even while drinking, according to a pschologist I know.

Something lethal in the stuff, from the supplier or somewhere?

The first question to ask is, "who would benefit from his death?". If it was foul play the other poor soul was probably in the wrong place at the wrong time.

I feel very sorry for Clay and his wife and her family.

They were near finishing the new house in Mae Taeng

Not wishing to rehash all of this, but you may wish to consult with a medical doctor instead of a psychologist for a proper medical opinion.

For 2 people to OD at the same time, particularly if they have been drinking, is NOT uncommon.

The lethality of OD'ing on the H was most like from the purity of it (something Thailand H is famous for) coupled with their alcohol consumption and their death was probably not from something "added" to the H.

By all accounts they didn't seem to be regular users and thus if have their dabbling involved using highly pure H, an OD is almost to be expected.

I join all others in wishing peace for their souls....

If they overdosed from the white powder, not as easily found in the Kingdom as once upon a time, then they were most likely shooting direct into the veins. If they were shooting then they were probably addicts. But it doesn't sound like they were addicts.

From the original thread, the autopsy revealed H was found in their nasal passages indicating snorting as the route of ingestion. It doesn't require all that much to OD whichever route is used. H is indeed not as common as before, but still not all that difficult to come by.
