THAILAND’S JACK THE RIPPER SENTENCED TO DEATH (MARCH 17, 2021)

Thailand is a Buddhist country so people are always questioning why executions are allowed here. Yes, killing is sinful but Buddhism teaches us to look at the intention behind the act. The intention here is to protect the country, so it is permitted. Since the Sukhothai dynasty, the King has gone out to fight wars. He and his troops have had to kill enemies to protect the country - execution is the same. [Quoted in THE REAL BANGKOK HILTON BBC Documentary 22 July 2004]
- Phra Kru Non Thawat is the head monk of Lap Lae temple, which is just on the other side of the wall from the execution chamber of Bang Kwang Prison. He has given the last rites to every prisoner executed at Bang Kwan.

            

Khon Kaen police with the 55-year-old serial killer who tortured and murdered his 51-year-old victim in the Kranuan district of the province on the 15th December 2019. He also stole from the woman with whom he moved in with 10 days previously. He murdered her just 7 months following his parole after being originally sentenced to death in 2005 for the murder of 5 women in hotel bedrooms across Thailand.


           On March 17, 2021, the Khon Kaen Provincial Court has passed the death sentence on paroled serial killer Somkid Phumphuang for the murder of a woman in 2019 in Kranuan district. Keep in mind, Somkid was sentenced to life imprisonment for murdering five women in 2005. They were singers and masseuses. He was arrested in the same year. Media reports dubbed him "Thailand's Jack the Ripper".

           I feel that he is no different from Kenneth McDuff. Just like Barry HadlowLenny Keith Lawson and Keith Burley, Jr., Somkid was a brilliant actor to fool the parole board to release them.  That us why death is a stronger lock than life imprisonment. There is no way a dead killer can reoffend again.

Paroled serial killer sentenced to death for 2019 murder

published : 2 Apr 2021 at 15:11

KHON KAEN: The Khon Kaen Provincial Court has passed the death sentence on paroled serial killer Somkid Phumphuang for the murder of a woman in 2019 in Kranuan district.

The provincial court on Friday made public its ruling in the murder case, posting the documents announcing its decision in front of the court. The court delivered judgement on March 17.

Somkid, 56, was arraigned for the premediated murder of a woman, involving torturing her, theft and concealment of her body.

The court sentenced him to death for the murder. He was initially also given two years in prison for theft and 12 months for concealment of the body.

The jail term for the theft was then increased to three years, under Section 93 of the Criminal Code for any action that affects a corpse or the place where a corpse was found, before the autopsy was performed, and the offence relating to the corpse was also increased, to 16 months, the documents said.

During police interrogation, the defendant had confessed to the murder because of the evidence against him. In court, he denied the charges and fought the case.

The court found he had committed the same offence in six cases.

He was convicted and sentenced for five previous murders. The sixth murder was committed only six months after he was released on parole.

As the defendant showed no fear of the law and no remorse for his actions, the court gave him the death sentence, according to the documents in the case.

Somkid was arrested on a Surin-Bangkok train at Pak Chong in Nakhon Ratchasima on Dec 18, 2019, for the murder of Ratsami Mulichan, 51, at her house in Kranuan district of Khon Kaen.

Ratsami died of suffocation. Her body was wrapped with a blanket, naked from the waist down. Her wrists and ankles had been tied. An electrical wire was fastened around her neck, held with transparent adhesive tape.

Somkid was sentenced to life imprisonment for murdering five women in 2005. They were singers and masseuses. He was arrested in the same year. Media reports dubbed him "Thailand's Jack the Ripper".

He was paroled and let free on May 17, 2019. The Corrections Department said he was a "model prisoner". He was arrested in December that year for the murder of Ratsami, who was his sixth victim.

Killer sentenced to death for the 2nd time for the murder of a woman 7 months after being paroled

April 6, 2021 at 1:14 am

by Carla Boonkong & Pranee O' Connor

A pathological woman killer who stole money from his victims as well as their lives. In its judgment in the case, the Khon Kaen Provincial Court certified that Mr Somkid Pumpuang was a remorseless and cruel killer who posed a grave threat to the public if ever released again from prison as it sentenced him, on March 17th, to death without granting mercy.

A Thai court in March sentenced a serial killer who was originally sentenced to be executed in 2005 for the murder of 5 women in hotels across a similar number of provinces to death for the second time after the torture and rape of a 51-year-old hotel maid at her home in Khon Kaen on December 15th 2019, just seven months after he was granted parole and released from prison.

News emerged over the weekend that a Thai serial killer, originally sentenced to death in 2005 for the murder of five women but who managed to be released on parole in May 2019, was formally sentenced to death again by the Provincial Court in Khon Kaen on March 17th last for the murder of another woman, 51-year-old Ratsami Mulichan at her home in Khon Kaen on the 15th December 2019.

Police believe that there was a strong sexual element in the perverse and cruel murders committed by the man

Case caused shock and public outcry in Thailand at the end of 2019 and the beginning of last year

There was both shock and a furore after the arrest of 55-year-old Somkid Pumpuang on a Bangkok bound train from Surin on December 18th 2019 by police at Pak Chong Railway Station where he was identified by a witness.

His case caused a public outcry in Thailand at the time with demands for the death penalty to be brought back into more regular and frequent use.

MP proposed that rapists should be castrated

It also drew a proposal from Samut Songkhram MP, Rangsima Rodrasmi, that convicted rapists in Thailand in certain circumstances, be subject to chemical castration orders.

The proposal which came before a committee of the House of Representatives, weeks after the murder, even received qualified support from Minister of Justice Somsak Thepsutin, at the time.

Khon Kaen Provincial Court sentenced the killer to death for the second time for another heinous crime

On March 17th last, the Khon Kaen court sentenced Mr Somkid to death after finding him guilty of the premeditated murder of the woman.

It imposed on him a three-year term for theft from the victim and a third sentence of one year and four months for concealment of her body.

Evidence read out in court showed that Ms Ratsami had died from suffocation.

Her body was found wrapped in a blanket and was naked from the waist down.

Her wrists and ankles had been bound while an electrical wire had been fastened around her neck and held with adhesive tape.

Media dubbed him as Thailand’s ‘Jack the Ripper’ in a country where sexual serial killers are rare

Thai media had dubbed the killer as Thailand’s ‘Jack the Ripper’ in a country where such killers are, according to informed police sources, seldom found despite the country’s high homicide rate and chronic problem with violence against women.

The same source suggests that the pathological serial killer undoubtedly had left behind as yet unknown victims.

In its judgment in March, the court noted that the convicted man had committed similar crimes on at least five previous occasions.

It also confirmed that the man showed absolutely no remorse for his crime and was a danger to the public if ever released again.

Trang native first sentenced to death in 2005 for the murder of 5 women linked with the nightlife and sex industry at hotels in different provinces

In 2005, Somkid, originally from Trang province in southern Thailand, was sentenced to death when he was convicted of the murder of 5 women believed to have been nightclub workers, masseuses and sex workers at various hotels in Trang, Lampang, Buri Ram, Mukdahan and Udon Thani.

The serial killer had a pattern of stealing money from his victims as well as raping and torturing them.

Death sentence commuted to life leading to the ‘model prisoner’ being granted parole in May 2019

In 2005, his sentence was commuted by the court from death to life imprisonment and thereafter he was described by the Corrections Department as a ‘model prisoner’ who benefitted from a range of sentence reductions and amnesties until he was finally granted parole on the 17th May 2019.

This was less than fifteen years after being sentenced to death and followed a decision by the prison service parole board.

Moved in to live with his sixth victim on December 5th 2019, Somkid murdered her after 10 days

On December 5th, locals in the Kranuan district of Khon Kaen observed that Mr Sompong appeared to have moved in with Ms Ratsami who worked as a hotel maid locally.

He murdered the woman at her home on December 15th and fled the scene until he was captured by police three days later on the train.

Following his arrest, the killer, confronted by overwhelming evidence, confessed to police that he had committed the murder but then rescinded his confession in subsequent court pleadings.

This was one of the reasons for the court finding on March 17th that there was no basis whatsoever to grant mercy to the serial killer whose death sentence was confirmed.

“The death penalty is legitimate. Many cases of severe crime have happened. Capital punishment exists to guarantee national peace and teach lessons. It is a necessity for us and people want it,” the prime minister said.

The prison’s resident Buddhist monk – like the majority of Thai people – has little sympathy for drug traffickers: “Drug dealing is a type of mass murder - it can destroy whole families. If a child becomes addicted to drugs, he drags down his whole family with him. The child starts to steal everything, which ruins the family’s reputation in society. A murderer typically kills only one person. Drug dealers don’t kill just one person - they ruin everyone’s lives.” [Quoted in THE REAL BANGKOK HILTON BBC Documentary 22 July 2004]

A Buddhist monk, Hsing Yun claimed that the abolishment of capital punishment is not valid by the laws of karma and vipāka in Buddhism. He has written, "However, although "severe punishments in chaotic time (亂世用重典)" do not necessarily have effects in stopping crimes, abolishing capital punishment is not valid by the laws of karma and vipāka in Buddhism, because "a karma as such induces a vipāka as such (如是因,招感如是果)"; having committed a karma without experiencing the vipāka is not compatible with reason. Hence, we can wish to reduce the capital punishment, not to recur to the capital punishment, to substitute the capital punishment by other measures, but we do not claim for the abolishment of the capital punishment."
