wooloomooloo Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Koh Chang police is waiting for clues and theories submitted by Thaivisa crime experts Okay. Very hard to drown oneself so I would be looking at whether the victim jumped from a balcony and landed on the water belly flop style rendering her unconscious.

starky Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 The Devils island. I thought that was Koh Tao or is it just one of those Thai bashing style terms that is just interchangeable at the drop of a hat depending on where a falang comes unstuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like so many come to Thailand to commit suspected Suicide! so sad! or it could just be that you get your news from a falang -centric website and don't consider how many people knock themselves worldwide everyday that never make the news perhaps.

gk10002000 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 he went to sleep after quarreling? While technically correct, it is kind of hard to fall asleep unless the quarreling has ended. Do you expect us to believe she just sat there on the other side of the bed and was quiet while he went to sleep? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williewolf Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Amazing. This is how the British press in their home town are reporting it http://www.expressandstar.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebell Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Amazing. This is how the British press in their home town are reporting it http://www.expressandstar.com/ Daily Mail had a similar splash early this morning describing their perfect love & soul-mate happiness. The story has disappeared now with reports of a quarrel and possible suicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyLew Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Drowning does not make sense Two two reports, one from Thailand and the one in UK do not sound remotely similar If she is a string swimmer, chances of drowning are slim in a swimming pool unless drunk, on pills or dove in and hit bottom of pool RIP to her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonfly94 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I don''t think I would feel like posting on fb if my mrs just died. He claims they were thinking of trying to have kids- she was 42. Something about his story is a bit off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starky Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I don''t think I would feel like posting on fb if my mrs just died. He claims they were thinking of trying to have kids- she was 42. Something about his story is a bit off. Lets be honest I don't know why so many get so involved in these stories. The majority of stories on TV are "a bit off anyway". Could it be poor comprehension or jumping to conclusions before knowing any facts or bias reporting making statements way too early after an event has happened. Could it be poor translation from Thai to English? or worse still English to Thai and back again? Could it be that so many stories on here come from such reliable news outlets as Coconuts Bangkok and his ilk? or could it just be that a lot of people that seem to come to, reside in or spend a little too much time in Thailand were "a little bit off" long before they got to the Kingdom? Perhaps a combination of all the above. The speculation and outrageous conclusions many jump to on this forum however when very few facts are known are positively puerile.

Local Drunk Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Suicide by drowning is not an easy thing to do in my opinion. I guess we have wait to her for her toxicology and autopsy reports to get something more substantial. Very sad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Local Drunk Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 (edited) Drowning does not make sense Two two reports, one from Thailand and the one in UK do not sound remotely similar If she is a string swimmer, chances of drowning are slim in a swimming pool unless drunk, on pills or dove in and hit bottom of pool RIP to her "Drowning does not make sense" Then yIf she hit her head it's ou give three situations in which it does. Weird. If she hit her head diving into a pool, then it's an accident. If she was intoxicated by any means then that too is an accidental death. So he actually only mentioned two possible causes of death. Both accidental. Edited May 22, 2015 by Local Drunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
