I am an expat living in Thailand for 9yrs, Phuket 4yrs. I work as a bodyguard and tell all my client that travel to Koh Tao to hire private protection. That island is run by some shady characters to say the least and as you can see from this story literally get away with murder..
I lived on the island of koh toa for three months a few years ago, i had my phone stolen by a French woman’s son at the sairee hotel. An incredibly kind Thai woman drove me on her bike to the police station which is exactly what is shown on this documentary, six police officers in tshirts smoking cigarettes outside their 12x10 office building. It goes without saying they couldn’t really help me, nor did they attempt to try. The island definitely isn’t equipped for dealing with casualties or murders.. There were also stories of tourists going to visit the “high” bars (where you can get magic mushroom shakes and marijuana joints) where the “police” would set up checkpoints and bust people for having weed. They would put them in jail for days on end or create a monetary bargain. This is speculated how the mafia make a lot of their money, ripping off any tourists of their farang money. The island is amazing but definitely keep your wits about you..
The island is run by two huge Thai mafia families. Unfortunately these two people insulted the son of one of the top men or his brother in the organisation. The brother fled and filmed on the street cam but it's not shown. They chopped Hannah's head off from above the eyebrows and left her spreadeagled. David was chopped his head with something (supposedly a hoe) and he drowned on the shore.
Because of the terrible audio quality, turn on the English caption. It helps a lot. Thank you for the video, it opened my eyes about the dangers of the island, which includes its police brutality, the ridiculous legal systems and human rights violations towards the Burmese immigrants. Sickening. RIP the victims.
Was that the Mayor? The one that takes no accountability and blames the tourists 100%? Sure maybe some of the tourists might be at fault but making that claim against every visitor is absurdly untrue. Cops dropped the ball from the jump & that mayor is shady asf... My condolences to the families.🙏🏻😔
I have been living in Thailand for half of my life, my last 4 years there even in prison for ridiculous allegations, so besides fluently knowing the language, I know them in and out, also their... "justice system". At that time, I traveled to Ko Tao to investigate on my own, talked to the local people and there living foreigners and got somehow my conclusion. Just after getting to know a civil servant who originally worked on Koh Tao earlier and knew all the big people there, and he "invited" me to help him in his work as a translator, I found out that the very dangerous thing about Thailand is, that the Mafia... IS the leading stage of government officials themselves, he included. He told me everything about the murderer, how they faked the evidence, it's a common thing in Thailand. Prisons are full of people who haven´t done the alleged crime. The best thing is just NOT to travel to Thailand. They're more hypocritic than the Pharisees and true... they have little to no regard to human life. The two poor Burmese guys haven´t done this, but were found guilty till the Supreme court and waiting to be killed, or go crazy in a there ending life in prison... a hell no one wants to be.
Are you Thai? So the civil servant you talked to knows exactly who the murderer is?? Regarding hypocrisy I know that is largely down to Thai/Buddhist mindset and the great importance it attaches to saving face and keeping up pretenses no matter what.
@@paulhiggins7133they are so dim witted they actually RAISED prices because Russians did a runner to here in Phuket and Thais thought they'd always do this 😂😂😂 So they RAISED the prices. This is the level of IQ were talking about Saving face,Money and health are all that matters to Thais
I dont understand..... Are the families not able to bring the bodies of their loved ones home? They could then have a toxicology report and autopsy completed to get clear evidence and get rid of so many of the unknowns. This perplexes me.
After the autopsy in Thailand was completed. The bodies were sent to their families. Only Hannah's body was reautopsied in England as the family asking for it. I don't know where to neither.
The guy @ 35.00 claimed during the trial that ----> UK autopsy report No lacerations and perineal abrasions were found from the vagina to the anus. Witnesses also hired experts in the UK to analyze the suspected men's walking in CCTV footage. Compare with the second defendant's gait on the day of the accident. Which obtained the results of analysis according to document No. 47 that the second defendant was not a suspected man.
If your daughter were raped and killed, the lawyer of the defendants claimed in the court that ---> the second defendant was not a suspected man according to the ANALYZE OF WALKING, are you ok with that?
@@nishant54 DNA & CCTV records are one of the most reliable sources than just words. The British media is scratchy as its best. It's sad that politics are more important than their people's lives by someone who call themselves being from democratic country. The victim was raped while still alive and her family are the victim of the media.
I will never understand why people prefer to travel to far away countries only to end up on a cold slab, it's not worth it families are left rattling their minds
When travelling europe or asia never travel alone, never go in dark corners just don't ! And that guy who was threatened by Thai mafia that's true, you will die in suicidal way just like that actor in kill bill movie who died in Thailand tied up. I don't believe the two young person whom was charged for the crimed are the murderer. The Police knows who did it but all their tongues are short to tell the truth
The judicial systems in all.of SE Asia are political based not based on law. It is all about what supports the political system and the well connected. One just has to be very careful and avoid hidden and seedy places. If you are a nonrich foreigner...good luck.
To bad the audio mastering is horrible, barely managed to watch 2 minutes at full volume and headphones... looks like an interesting story, its a pity that the volume of the narrator is tooooo low. I really hope you reupolad this video with a better narrator audio quality, i kinda look forward for a new "wordls most dangerous serial killers" video
That's real funny that Thai authorities tried to blame a mix of chest medication & alcohol on Christina's death. Yes, you should not take any prescription meds & then drink alcohol, but they would not cause a person to do all that. How she died, brutally murdered & then hung up there as if it was suicide. Umm no. 1st off, if she was all messed up & completely annihilated from the combination of way too many drugs & alcohol, her hand coordination w/ her mind would not be able to put together that type of a scenario. The thought process of ""hey let's stage this as a suicide"" drugged up
if people know how many young girls being kidnaped, raped some killed in thailand, they wouldn't call it as "paradise". check Kra island, lot of Vietnamese girls being held, sold there around 1975-85 (boat-people).
A Colonel in the Tai Police equals a Dustbin Man in most other countries, the differences?? A dustbin man earns more, has a higher education and doesn't DEPEND on bribes to survive. The girl victim ignored her families advice and pleas NOT to go. I wonder if she was remembering this? The boy left a nice island to go to this shitpile. Enough said
Why are so many people interrogating this young man? Is it a public sporting event? If they have such limited resources, they shouldnt have so many tourists there. You can’t let 18- 20 somethings police themselves. They’re certainly are getting $ from the tourists. They owe it to them to have a safe vacation.Didntthey have CCTV on the beach?
In regards to the documentary title, Koh Tao is far from being paradisiacal. I've lived in Thailand for 4 years and have visited Koh Tao many times, and no, it's not paradise, it's simply a cheap island for drinking and diving inexpensively, but neither its waters nor the island itself are paradisiacal. The same goes for Koh Samui or Koh Phangan; if someone wants paradise islands in Thailand, they have to go to the Andaman Sea.
I have never seen in my whole life one of these People to be safe and honest. They are all brutal and dictatorial. Tourism should be banned in those countries.
They're being charged because of the following evidence 1. CCTV footage shows they were entering to the crime scene that night 2. CCTV footage from 7-Eleven store shows they bought cigarettes (same brand found at the crime scene) 3. DNA found in vagina match both of them 4. Cigarette butts found at the crime scene match both of them 5. David's IPhone was buried at their renting house. Have you ever heard all of these information before? DNA fingerprinting results are automatically saved to computer and if someone try to falsify the results, it would be easily detected. The DNA tests were completed at least 10 days before they were arrested.
After being arrested they confessed and admitted to committing a crime. Why they recant their statement? Because their lawyer told them so as there is evidence linked to rape only, not murder. @36.44 is the wedge used to commit murder while the victims were having sex. Both victims have severe head injuries. Only the victims' DNA were detected from the wedge. Of course two men with one wedge VS people having sex. So these two Burmeses did not have any bleeding. However, all pieces of scientific and circumstantial evidence was enough to support the murder charge against them.
Thank you for the facts not reported by this documentary, towards the end of the documentary the family of the young man gave a public statement saying through out the trial the evidences from the prosecution were overwhelmingly convincing. This was a huge publicized case in Thailand at the time and the Thai police have a very good past records of solving these kind of cases quickly and correctly.
Lived in Thailand for 15 years. Never an issue. But you pick where you go and who you associate with. Same danger as any place. You go to a party place, such as Kho Tao, Kho Samui, etc. typically laws aren't as strictly enforced and crimes are more common to occur. Watched this because I was curious to see how distorted they would make Thailand's CJS (granted, yes, there is corruption, and it runs differently than USA), like so many other films/documentaries/etc. Not that what happened wasn't tragic, no one deserves what they went through.
True lambert , was thinking the same thing.. was on the island acouple of times Diving 2012/2015..i think age can help 😂 now 61 but , back then , with my thai partner headed to that party end of the island , i stayed one night 😂 just full of off their heads young wannabe hippies , absolute nightmare. Ended up at Tanote bay , nice hut on the beach , great diving .. Great days indeed ..And the staff , always at sunrise sweeping the beach 😂 were from Myanmar .. really lovely people , always smiling and polite. I dont have much money even though a maxidar 😂😉..But i gave them each a 100bht before we left .. They wete over the moon.. ATB 👍
I don't know when you left the island (or Thailand) but you are WAY out of touch. It's that bad that if you list the criminal events that occur DAILY in tourist centres it'd sound like a war. Beheadings,shootouts,armed robbery, dubious suicides,missing persons,chopped bodies found in cars,hundreds of bikers blocking the place up, corruption,street fights etc etc etc People aren't turning up and the Thais are so stupid that they're RAISING prices to attempt to recoup losses. Restaurants are closing,bars are closed,hotels are shut down and clubs (officially) have time limits put on them. Even the beaches are being shut at 11 pm in Pattaya! You're living in Disneyland,the world has changed,time has moved on and Koh Tao Death Island is a very real and ever present threat to the safety of tourists and tourism in Thailand.
I don't understand why nobody in this comment section is talking about the fact that these corrupt pieces of shit just sentenced 2 innocent guys to death!!!
I am sorry but the Thai dude who saw the bodies gives me eirrie feelings...his eyes and body language struggling to not to show or mess up his words... he knows who did ..but it’s not him
Danielle, Hi I agree 100%. I think the locales in Thailland surely know who murdered these two young people as well as other murders. But they keep secretes and do not really care if tourist get's murdered....especially American ones !
@@mtha7796 I have no knowledge about how they arrest criminals ...I will let the law enforcers do that ... but, as a human being we have this thing called intuition... we do things according on what we think and feel... my intuition saved my life so many times ..I am speaking through experience... I used to live in south east Asia... I know how it is... we know how things work ..real talk..
@@sonnycorleone2602 I really feel sorry to the family’s victims...the fact that losing someone you love is heartbreaking already what more when the cause of death is murdered ... Thailand’s police it shows a lot on the video that they are not trained enough to do their job or probably don’t have b2lls to do it ...justice for the two victims and also others .
@@daniellegaspar8386 Good to hear that the police in your country are all GOOD. BTW, there are good and bad people in every career. So it would be easier if you discuss about SOLID EVIDENCE than FEELINGS!
I've been to Thailand thousands times, with my family, and so far, nothing happen. The people there are friendly and had no issues even drove our car into Thailand cos we respect their laws. It's quite sad that this incident happended to this family but don't make it like Thailand is a bad country for everyone.
Not everyone, just most people. Thailand, the Philippines, Burma, ALL these countries are totally CORRUPT. Endemic, so don't try to make out Thailand and all its hideaways are safe because its a lottery.
This video makes it sound like Thailand is the most dangerous place on earth. When I visited for a holiday all went well and we didn't feel unsafe. Can't say the same when we visited NY.
Law enforcers know how to beat without leaving marks. Its called the art of clean torture and here in Brazil they do that very well by knowing how to hit and where according to gender and fat distribution. But often times they play it safe so they resort to methods that dont involve hitting. Men are more likely to be waterboarded and women suspects are more likely to receive electric ''Therapy''. Im not saying that these guys are innocents btw.

Might want to think about turning the music down a few notches and turn up the narrating voice. Wanted to watch but having to strain to hear her voice irritated me.
Very nice, people should talk more about the corrupt government and police force in Thailand. Also all this jerk family’s that are playing mafia in almost every tourist spot you can think of 😢
The music is so loud over the voice. U am 1.40 minutes in and sadly heard nothing. So guess I can not continue. Don't u listen to ur production before u release it. What a pity
The sound of this video is wieerrd. But aside from that... That police guy interviewes could not be more fake. I mean if that is an actual police officer from there who worked on these casesm wtf.... What do you mean they used "equipment' that compliens to some eu standards, something like that, cannot remember. What the heck .. also that guy saying that his family is inocent... Could not look more guilty if he tried. What the heck is wrong with these people. They are so freaking bad at cover up and they actually get away with these murders with corruption.
1.36 in and i thumbs downed it because the music is way to loud and you can't hear the Narrator and there are no subtitles to counter act that problem. Fix and re upload. Nobody can watch this.
After so many stories and life’s being taken and government and cops don’t care I refuse to go I there’s many other beautiful country sometimes cheap fun and party life ain’t worth a life rest In peace to those who lost there life
Maybe reupload with the narrator's voice turned up, or music turned down. Some of the video is completely unintelligible
Completely agree, had to stop watching it. The audio is pretty bad. I'll come back again watch another day. I was really interested in the story.
1:30 that's how far i got
@@dominicsangeet7302 me too
Yep, got to 1:43 and that was it. I like to listen to these things while I do other things, I don't want to have to sit and read subtitles.

Its too bad the CC can't even pick up the words the chick is saying - hard to follow storyline 😐
Ya really need to fix the narrators audio and republish it.
The ONE who violently attacked them was the Thai Hotel owner that saw them First - MONTRIWAT! Sick individual
Yes
Because of the terrible audio quality, turn on the English caption. It helps a lot.
Thank you for the video, it opened my eyes about the dangers of the island, which includes its police brutality, the ridiculous legal systems and human rights violations towards the Burmese immigrants. Sickening. RIP the victims.
Lmfao the sound mixing 😂🤣😂
For real though! Thought it was just me
No doubt!! Can't even hear the lady who is narrating half the time bc of all the sound mixing that overpowers her voice!
dogshit sound mixing
the music be slapping lmao
Omggg you ain’t kiddin 😹😹😹
Someone should be fired for that audio.
yooooooo wth with the sound, i cant watch this one! dang it.
The people complaining about the sound made me want to complain about the sound it's atrocious
Was that the Mayor? The one that takes no accountability and blames the tourists 100%? Sure maybe some of the tourists might be at fault but making that claim against every visitor is absurdly untrue. Cops dropped the ball from the jump & that mayor is shady asf...
My condolences to the families.🙏🏻😔
What about the 2 innocent guys that just got the death penalty!!!????
The narrator thinks she is reading a bed time story... aaarrgh can't she just speak up with some energy to it? Pass her a Redbull
Hello. Could you turn up the music a bit, I can still hear the narrator. Thanks.
The sound clears up after a bit. Doesn't even last that long. Thank you for the upload 👍🏻🙂

What’s with the sound quality of the narrator? You can barely hear her speak 🗣 but the music 🎶 is so loud...
Don’t understand why people keep pushing to go into places where they don’t belong😞
I don't understand why nobody in this comment section is talking about the fact that these corrupt pieces of shit just sentenced 2 innocent guys to death!!!
They think they own the place. They wouldn’t do the same thing in their own country.
Drunks not even in thailand have a better chance of accidental death !!!! You can get blacked out all the time and expect nothing to happen.
Hello there friend 😋🥳🥳🥳
The music is too loud the narrator's voice is completely inaudible
I am sorry but the Thai dude who saw the bodies gives me eirrie feelings...his eyes and body language struggling to not to show or mess up his words... he knows who did ..but it’s not him
Danielle, Hi I agree 100%. I think the locales in Thailland surely know who murdered these two young people as well as other murders. But they keep secretes and do not really care if tourist get's murdered....especially American ones !
Good to hear that the police in your country arrest suspects by eerie feelings:)
@@mtha7796 I have no knowledge about how they arrest criminals ...I will let the law enforcers do that ... but, as a human being we have this thing called intuition... we do things according on what we think and feel... my intuition saved my life so many times ..I am speaking through experience... I used to live in south east Asia... I know how it is... we know how things work ..real talk..
@@sonnycorleone2602 I really feel sorry to the family’s victims...the fact that losing someone you love is heartbreaking already what more when the cause of death is murdered ... Thailand’s police it shows a lot on the video that they are not trained enough to do their job or probably don’t have b2lls to do it ...justice for the two victims and also others .
@@daniellegaspar8386 Good to hear that the police in your country are all GOOD. BTW, there are good and bad people in every career. So it would be easier if you discuss about SOLID EVIDENCE than FEELINGS!
A murder trial in an hour!!! You have to be kidding me!!
And 2 innocent guys sentenced to death!!! What the fuck!
This is unwatchable. Who approved this to be uploaded with the sound all jacked up?
This is the worst video I have watched because it’s very sad and the Tai police on this island are corrupt (my opinion).
The music is too loud you cant hear the narration
Saw this already like couple of years ago. Please make a new one
Turn down the stupid music.
Wow this like never happens on this channel! You might want to fix the sound and re-upload this video
I've been to Thailand thousands times, with my family, and so far, nothing happen. The people there are friendly and had no issues even drove our car into Thailand cos we respect their laws. It's quite sad that this incident happended to this family but don't make it like Thailand is a bad country for everyone.
Not everyone, just most people. Thailand, the Philippines, Burma, ALL these countries are totally CORRUPT. Endemic, so don't try to make out Thailand and all its hideaways are safe because its a lottery.
Have you ever lived there too?
Whoever is committing these murders obviously doesn't "respect the laws" and neither do the piece of shit RTP.
The music has spoiled everything
After midnight anywhere outside is not safe any police officer will tell you that.
This is unlistenable with headphones
Without headphones too
I can't handle the music
This video makes it sound like Thailand is the most dangerous place on earth. When I visited for a holiday all went well and we didn't feel unsafe. Can't say the same when we visited NY.
NY is unsafe due to the far left state legislature getting rid of bail requirements for violent criminals. Insane policy
Wow, somebody didn't want to get copyright claimed or somethingggg....
🤭
If the suspects got beaten why don't they have bruises or cuts didn't look like they were in any pain when making the police video of what happened??
Law enforcers know how to beat without leaving marks. Its called the art of clean torture and here in Brazil they do that very well by knowing how to hit and where according to gender and fat distribution. But often times they play it safe so they resort to methods that dont involve hitting. Men are more likely to be waterboarded and women suspects are more likely to receive electric ''Therapy''. Im not saying that these guys are innocents btw.
@@juanalbert3986 They're being charged because of the following evidence 1. CCTV footage shows they were entering to the crime scene that night 2. CCTV footage from 7-Eleven store shows they bought cigarettes (same brand found at the crime scene) 3. DNA found in vagina match both of them 4. Cigarette butts found at the crime scene match both of them 5. David's IPhone was buried at their renting house. Have you ever heard all of these information before? DNA fingerprinting results are automatically saved to computer and if someone try to falsify the results, it would be easily detected. The DNA tests were completed at least 10 days before they were arrested.
@@juanalbert3986 After being arrested they confessed and admitted to committing a crime. Why they recant their statement? Because their lawyer told them so as there is evidence linked to rape only, not murder. @36.44 is the wedge used to commit murder while the victims were having sex. Both victims have severe head injuries. Only the victims' DNA were detected from the wedge. Of course two men with one wedge VS people having sex. So these two Burmeses did not have any bleeding. However, all pieces of scientific and circumstantial evidence was enough to support the murder charge against them.
lmao i thought i was tripping, the audio is so confusing in this vid... thought i accidentally clicked on a really really weird trance music video.
Yes, can you fix the sound?? Its totally unbalanced
Could not hear the narrator!!!!!!
the background sound is horrible.
making it hard for it to understand..
What happen with the sound,.???
Might want to think about turning the music down a few notches and turn up the narrating voice. Wanted to watch but having to strain to hear her voice irritated me.
Very nice, people should talk more about the corrupt government and police force in Thailand. Also all this jerk family’s that are playing mafia in almost every tourist spot you can think of 😢
The music is so loud over the voice. U am 1.40 minutes in and sadly heard nothing. So guess I can not continue. Don't u listen to ur production before u release it. What a pity
Yikes! Narrator's voice is drowned out by the music.
Hello there friend 🙄
The sound of this video is wieerrd. But aside from that... That police guy interviewes could not be more fake. I mean if that is an actual police officer from there who worked on these casesm wtf.... What do you mean they used "equipment' that compliens to some eu standards, something like that, cannot remember. What the heck .. also that guy saying that his family is inocent... Could not look more guilty if he tried. What the heck is wrong with these people. They are so freaking bad at cover up and they actually get away with these murders with corruption.
I could hardly understand what the narrator was talking about due to the over-loud music. The voiceover should be louder. Tragic and awful deaths.
Crooked Paradise…..I was thinking about going to Thailand but not now….
1.36 in and i thumbs downed it because the music is way to loud and you can't hear the Narrator and there are no subtitles to counter act that problem. Fix and re upload. Nobody can watch this.
After so many stories and life’s being taken and government and cops don’t care I refuse to go I there’s many other beautiful country sometimes cheap fun and party life ain’t worth a life rest
In peace to those who lost there life
The background sound makes me dizzy.
At 14 minutes in I quit. Narrator is impossible to hear. With sound increased for her voice the music is deafening.
The background music is too loud and you cannot hear the comentary,.
The police say every body lying
Who did the sound on this one. Turn down the music so we can hear the story lol.
A narrator usually adds a lot to a story. This narrator has a boring monotonous voice which does not add any value to the story.
Hello 👋✅
The music is too loud 🙄
