I understand that some people like to do a Hindu/Buddhist retreat thing but it seems like she might have had some mental problems and needed some support and did this instead of seeing a professional councilor.

Krenjai Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 (edited) What about this version? Girl decides to go home after traveling abroad for a very long time, buys ticket to BKK, but before going home wants to spend a few days in Koh Tao. Fire at the resort, caused by a candle, petrol whatever. Need another place to stay, goes to Tanote Bay by motorcycle taxi, it is the middle of the night. Her ticket was burned/lost in the fire so she buys new one. Wants to pick up her luggage next day but it was loaded on the ferry by mistake due to chaos with the fire. The motorcycle taxi driver who drove her to Tanote Bay or whoever spots the good looking farang girl goes back the next day for some action. She refuses, he strangles her and makes it look like a suicide. Police covers up, they don't want another suspicious death, come up with a previous suicide attempt in front of a train, and an obscure sect guru. This version is as ridiculous as any other speculation. We will just NEVER know, that is very likely the outcome of this case.

Lamar Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 "The deputy spokesman of the Royal Thai Police said forensic examination of the Belgian tourist showed she died from suffocation, indicating she took her own life." Incorrect reasoning: this is compatible with the hypothesis of a suicide, BUT ALSO with the hypothesis of a murder by strangulation! There have been many strangulation murders all over the world! My purpose is not to argue in favor of this second hypothesis but to emphasize that it can not be so easily swept away and that the reasoning that "death by suffocation = suicide" is not correct. One can also (again) keep in memory that in the annals of criminal cases in this country there have been many instances of suspicion that dead by hanging are in fact crimes disguised as suicides; There is at least one proven case, when a victim escaped hanging over a highway bridge because, fortunately, the rope broke! This is also reminiscent of Sean McAnna's allegations that two people threatened to hang him in the forest and disguise this as a suicide. It will also be remembered that in some criminal cases it happened that the bodies of the victims were burnt at the place of execution to prevent their identification; This was particularly the case for the mass grave discovered last year near Udon Thani. Before jumping to either conclusion, there should be publicly and openly verifiable evidence! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the place where she was found dead, it is clearly totally unsuitable to hang someone there as the victim could clearly reach the rocks with her legs if she intended. To suffocate her would require force that would surely show up in an autopsy. Yet no signs of assault were found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Deerhunter Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Died of suffocation? A non-judicial hanging either self inflicted or not will do just that. Judicial hangings are meant to cause C2/C3 fracture dislocation as well as suffocation. Strangulation murderers sometimes try to fake a suicide hanging to cover their crime. The marks of bruising from the various forms of suffocation and strangulation or lack if them hould tell an experienced pathologist whether they were inflicted by the hanging or another means such as manual strangulation, or even if they occurred before the hanging. Either way, it is yet another sad end to a probably decent and promising life. She has obviously had a troubled time in her recent past and thought she was through it at one recent point. Poor girl. Very sad. How tragic for the family whatever the mode of death. If murder we hope they can find and punish him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To suffocate her would require force that would surely show up in an autopsy. Yet no signs of assault were found. Right! But if it's difficult to hang someone at this place (because her legs will reach the rocks), then it seems also to hang herself, for the same oblivious reason. The force exercised necessary for causing suffocation is the same whether exercised by voluntary hanging or by a third party. If the victim is taken by surprise, for example assaulted from behind (as often in cases of strangulation), this will leave no trace of assault other than the strangulation itself.

fxe1200 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Now the Bangkok police is coming to the rescue by saying, that Elise tried to kill herself in Bangkok already, but was saved from jumping in front of a train. The "Guru" Raaman Andreas is now linked to the/murder/suicide. He is wanted for questioning, but he left the country already. I would do exactly the same: leaving the country immediately, before being tortured forced into confession and ending up like the B2. Good decision.

phantomfiddler Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 How could she have hanged herself and subsequently be eaten by a large lizard ? Did the lizard leap up and take bites, or did the unfortunate girl let herself down and lay on the rocks after she had hung herself ? This has to be the weirdest chain of events ever recorded !

You wanna charge the lizard with assault? Roaches, rats even cats and dogs will often dine on found corpses, a trained investigator can easily identify the differences between post mortem animal feasting and assault injuries.
