Murder of Kirsty Jones



In 2020 23-year-old Kristy Jones was a Welsh citizen who loved back packing. She had done it before and planned to do it again. She would go to several Asian countries on vacation. She had already been to Singapore and Malaysia before she went to Thailand in early August. She would check into a hostel room in Chiang Mai, Thailand. On her trip she went trekking in the mountains, sightseeing, and met people. This would be the second time she would backpack in Thailand. 

On August 10, 2000, Kristy would be murdered in her hostel room. She had been sexually assaulted and strangled to death.

Thailand has a 20-year statute of limitations on murder. So on August 10, 2020, the case was officially closed. In this case, no one can be prosecuted even if the murderer was found. There were several suspects in this case, but no evidence that could convict any of them.
