snoop1130 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 GPS tracking leads to dead French man but mystery surrounds why he died Mystery surrounds the death of a 68 year old French man after he was found dead in his rented home in Sri Racha by a car rental man. Michel Bachellerique had rented a car in Pattaya but when he failed to return it by Monday the company checked the GPS in the vehicle and saw it had not moved for two days. Sunthorn Tolong, 56, followed the tracking signal to a two story house yesterday where the front gate had been left open. Inside he saw blood downstairs and immediately called security who contacted the Nong Kham police. Police found a lot of blood all over the floor downstairs. In an upstairs bedroom by the side of the bed they found the dead man who was naked. There was also a lot of blood in the bedroom. He had been dead for about four days. His next door neighbor Janthakarn Chamjaidee, 32, said she had not seen him for four days. He had lived alone in the rented town house, located in the Bung area of Sri Racha, for about two years and she would see him most mornings walking to a local convenience store. She said he kept himself to himself and she had not seen anyone else in the last few days going into the house. Police called in forensics officers to make a full examination of the scene and the body has been sent for autopsy.

Andrew Dwyer Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 RIP MichelWonder if the rental company can trace the cars movements since the poor fella died ? or does " and saw it had not moved for two days "mean they could only check the last two days for movement ??Either way the police have some investigating ( or guessing) to do !

observer90210 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) Always switch on the CCTV in your homes when bringing in "friendly guests", and make sure the footage is secured online for later recovery if necessary! And inform any trustworthy person where the footage is, that can hopefully would never be needed!

lvr181 Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 At least the RTP did not immediately say it was suicide - seemingly the normal practice. Maybe they could wait for an autopsy in the meantime? RIP Michel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of times I have been at/near the scene of violent crime/incident. Both times the cops made a complete mess of things, touched and moved everything, and at the very end called for the forensic team - why bother?

Not much of a mystery then, as someone else was involved, unless it was a bizarre form of suicide (which no doubt the RTP will confirm). Sad end for anyone to suffer. A dreadful death.

Elkski Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Hmmm. Sound like the perps wanted to urge some info out if him. Have him show them a few stashes? So why did he rent the car? Planning to pick up a visitor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowgard Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 (edited) After I saw the photos I believe him died about a stomach ulcer burst!!! It started downstairs, him walked up in the toilette vomiting a lot in the toilette. Maybe him want go in the bad and the next blood vomiting start. Than him fall powerless about massive blood lost. You can die in minutes about a stomach ulcer burst. Not everything must be a murder case!!! Edited June 22, 2017 by snowgard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only checked when the car became overdue for return. At no time does the story quote the car renter on when the car HAD been driven, but it had NOT been driven during the two days it should have been returned.

The neighbor hadn't seen him for 4 days. GPS trackers have limited storage. The car could easily have not been moving as long as the guy was obviously not moving but the GPS only stores the last 48-hours of positioning data. Who said he was murdered?
