Damn this is the type of crime you read about in fiction novels. Whoever the detectives are for this case certainly have their work cut out for them. I mean no disrespect; RIP to the victims.

they ordered food, but food was not eaten. drinks were however consumed (maybe tea or coffee). Traces of it were found on the hotel utensils and cups …. Why didn’t house staff check on them ?

[TrappedQue]

The lady from America was the suspect of the poisoning.

When are people going to listen when the president and Home Homeland Security warn Americans to not leave American soil? No, I'm not blaming the American people I'm just trying to understand why do people not listen?

[TaxTheChurches.]

Good topic for 48 Hours. Not worth 1:30 out of a 20 minute show that provides the only news millions of Americans get each day.

Not Americans, but Asians, Americans only with US passports, but they were Asian

[Reaperhydraulicstampa]

[regdexter]

The American FBI need to carry out investigation, anyone living in Thailand know the Police can not be trust.
1. The Grand Hyatt hotel famous for impressive architecture, large spaces, and world-class food and beverage. However, they cant provide a kettle in the room to boiling hot water for coffee. they using 2 bottle hot water. Even Tim Holiday Home can provide kettle for guest stay at his hotel.
2. Vietnamese has a traditional in every family and friends and at home eat foods when it still warm. They dont like to leave it cold and reheat in the microwaves. the whole dinner table untouch, very strange.
3. Why Thai PM have to be at the scene, he got nothing else to do runing the country? These people are not ambassadors or foreign leaders. The Hotel didnt even publish all videos footage of the victim enter the hotel or exit etc.

Therefore, it seem to the scene of the incident set up by Thai police to make it look like a murder suicide . That the only way to protect Thailand tourism industry.
