This marks the first conviction in a series of 14 alleged murders, making her one of Thailand&#8217;s most notorious serial killers. Sararat, an online gambling addict, reportedly used her crimes to fund her addiction by swindling her victims before killing them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The First Murder Conviction<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The crime occurred in April 2023 when Sararat and Siriporn performed a Buddhist fish release ritual near Bangkok. Shortly after the ritual, Siriporn collapsed and died, with cyanide later detected in her body. Police linked Sararat to multiple unsolved cases dating back to 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Siriporn\u2019s mother, Tongpin Kiatchanasiri, expressed both grief and relief after the verdict, stating, &#8220;Justice has been done for her today.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method of Deception and Murder<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Sararat\u2019s modus operandi involved borrowing money from her victims, with amounts as high as 300,000 baht (around US$9,000). She would then poison them using herb capsules laced with cyanide. Police uncovered a pattern of 15 targeted individuals, 14 of whom died, while one managed to survive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wider Implications and Additional Trials<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Sararat faces 13 more murder trials and a total of approximately 80 criminal charges. Her ex-husband, a police lieutenant-colonel, received a 16-month prison sentence, and her former lawyer was sentenced to two years for their roles in Siriporn\u2019s death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Troubled History of High-Profile Crimes<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Thailand has witnessed several chilling criminal cases in recent years. Earlier this year, six foreigners were found dead in a luxury Bangkok hotel, suspected victims of cyanide poisoning linked to massive debts. Sararat\u2019s case adds another dark chapter to the country\u2019s criminal history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tags: Cyanide poisoning, serial killer, Thailand, criminal justice, court verdict Death Sentence for Notorious Serial Killer Sararat Rangsiwuthaporn, a 36-year-old Thai woman, was sentenced to death for poisoning her friend, Siriporn Kanwong, with cyanide.
