✝️ Wannipa Janhuathon, age 26 – January 6 2018, Pattaya, Thailand 🇹🇭💔
Wannipa had been working as a waitress at Sky Bar on Soi 6 in Pattaya for several months, while helping to support her family, who live in the country’s northeast, in Sakon Nakhon province.
She was found dead at 5:30 am on January 6, after falling from a fifth floor balcony, while allegedly having „extravagant sex“ with john and former British Army soldier Reece Vella, age 25, from Birmingham. He had paid her 1.500 baht (£35) to go with him. Wannipa suffered severe head injuries and multiple fractures after falling naked along with a half-empty packet of sex drugs, Kamagra oral jelly, from the apartment balcony. When the paramedics arrived and performed CPR on Wannipa she was still alive, but she was later pronounced dead in hospital.
Officers claim that Vella had used a motorbike as a getaway vehicle having fled the room and that he had been staying in the country illegally for 59 days after his visa had expired.
Vella had been convicted on raping a teenage girl in 2012 and was jailed for almost five years. He admitted raping the girl in Worcester having punched her twice in the face and hit her with a bin lid. He was also accused of being concerned in the supply of heroin and crack cocaine.
Vella was jailed at a Worcester Crown Court for four years and three months
