Somtamnication Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Sounds like suicide. He was able to cut his throat and throw away the glass and knife afterwards. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesetat2013 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Another open and shut case of suicide for this guy. Chained on the inside will be their reasoning. Forget that it is one of the hardest ways to kill yourself. Slicing your own throat is not an easy task both physically and mentally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onetime Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Clearly, it's better for the tourist industry if they say he was a distraught foreigner, rather than say the perps went out the window. We all know the deal here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plutojames88 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 The ATM disclosure and girlfriends associates may be key. If indeed that isn't a chained up account either of events . Most murdered people who recently acquired a "" new love interest"" often mysteriously have their ATM linked accounts emptied out. Regards the suicide prognosis few people choose cutting the throat of ones self . Many pills could be obtained if necessary or a more humane manner than that. It could be a far more suspect story without the Chain . And presumably no mention of a window. Other conspiracy theories might involve ISIS finding French Nationals . Though the most likely is his girlfriend may not have been the Snow White he expected and his UDON trip was a fatal mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzra Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 It has been a disturbing situations happening over and over again where people come to Thailand just to off themselves with apparently no reason... maybe reality got too much for them when facing certain issues....

And no traces.....please Google how many foreigners got killed in Udon Thani.Scary. In recent memory: The bar owner who was followed home by the Thai assistant manager and hacked to death with a machete? for the night's takings which he kept in his sock. The 22 yr old German who had the audacity to be in the public park one morning when 3 local guys decided to emulate the Koh Tao murders for fun, and smashed his head in with a hoe..... Never heard any follow up on them in the media. When you move to the jungle, never underestimate the sheer savageness of the locals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 What was he doing in a dormitory? Thais use the word dormitory for any kind of cheap, single room apartment Agreed, it is often applied to housing for university-students too, living in what we used to call bed-sits.

Slashed throat Cuts to his fingers (defensive wounds) Broken glass Conclusion: no sign of a struggle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazygreg44 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) according to the police reporting, "Pieces of broken glass were also found there. There were no traces of a struggle, police said. The man had sustained a severe wound to the right side of his throat which was about 10cm long, There were also wounds to the fingers of both hands, forensic officers said. " So, cuts on both hands are never signs of struggling with somebody who holds a knife ready to slash your throat? Where did the forensics learn their job, in a kindergarden building LEGO castles? No report on a knife found, so how do you slash your throat left handed with a piece of broken glas, if the glas was the weapon? These are not forensics the police employs, these guys should do a different job as they are obviously not fit for doing forensic research. The report also shows a picture of the room, it is on ground level, and there's a large slide door leading to the outside, and guess what, i bet it was just pushed close after the murderer left, but our forensics didn't mind because the chain indicated a better motif which would be a quicker end to all the work they are supposed to do. Give the press an easy explanation and close the case, everything else would be too much work. Edited December 18, 2015 by crazygreg44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no traces.....please Google how many foreigners got killed in Udon Thani.Scary. a long time ago i had a girlfriend from udon thani. she wanted to marry me. then i discovered that her family owed 200,000 THB and that i was expected to pay this off. i discused the matter with another farang and his girlfriend who were in a nearby house. i should not have done this. she told my girlfriend who then refused to sleep with me and threatened to have me killed. it was late afternoon and too late to catch a bus out of the area so i stayed in the family house. i left the lght on all night, put pillows in the bed, and sat in an armchair facing the door but hidden. in the morning i just left. she later finished me and i believe is still working in pattaya looking for a victim. the father was peaceful enough but you never can tell. it is always money and lots of it. falungs do get attacked if the money is not paid.

rtco Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 From Stickboy site "The man had sustained multiple wounds to the head, hands and body with a 10cm gash on the right side of his neck" ... this doesn't sound like a suicide to me but then again I am not an armchair detective like many here on TV.
