Killer Pattaya
Prostitutes
By Leonard Calcagno
Published December 2001
A half-drunk and drugged big blonde Dane
wakes up relived of $500 US. Last thing
he remembers is that this beautiful Thai
prostitute gave him a pill with her tongue,
telling him it was an aphrodisiac. He was
a lucky bastard; last week two Germans were
found naked and dead in their hotel room.
Their personal effects were never found
by the police. Not even the hotel owner
remembers if they came in with somebody.
Most of the tourists in Pattaya, Thailand
come for the same thing: sex for cheap.
But cases of prostitutes stealing everything
from their drunk clients were not uncommon.
This time, something about the case didn’t
wash. The coroner determined that both men
died of heart attacks at approximately the
same time in the same room.
These deaths, and a number that followed,
began making international headlines, and
the sex tourist industry shrank. The stories
were becoming common: some beautiful Thai
slipped in an "aphrodisiac" or
asks the client to lick her breasts. And
that’s pretty much the last thing anyone
remembers. Usually they would be relieved
of wallet and watch. But now, johns were
being killed off instead.
Police in Pattaya were convinced that the
local mafia was using prostitutes to lure,
rob tourist and kill them. Working with
INTERPOL, local police began combing the
areas that the tourists were found dead
or unconscious. The south of Pattaya is
where the most of the prostitute bars are.
European [re: white] agents began visiting
these bars undercover. It's not the first
time that Thai and European police have
worked together. A porno cartel dealing
pedophilia was busted by Dutch and Scandinavian
police a couple of years ago.
South Pattaya is where every bar has girls
waiting in the door, bringing customers
for cheap sex and beer. In every bar, naked
girls are trained to be bait for sex tourists.
Most of the "beer bars" are decorated
in a cheap Christmas version of a high school
beach party -- but with a hundred horny
drunken tourists looking and touching underage
smiling merchandise. The message parlors
are filled with who girls specialize in
everything for the right price: $5 US; And
for a little extra, they’ll go to your
hotel, too.
The biggest beer bar is The Marine: two
big dance floors and a dozen live show booths,
each with a couple of girls scrammed in
waiting for customers. In this ocean of
horny tourists, police waited for 3 weeks
before a Thai prostitute with mafia connections
came in contact with one of them.
In a corner of the bar, there’s a
drunken German tourist with 10 girls, talking
loudly and paying for drinks without a care
in the world. He's tall, blue-eyed and full
of golden jewelry, just waiting to be robbed.
In the other corner policemen have spotted
a group of Thais looking him over and sending
girls over to him. They let the drunken
German leave with the girls, and the next
day the police get a report from him saying
that he was drugged and robbed.
For two months the police go to The Marine
and always hear the same story. Nobody is
killed though; the police follow the stupid
tourists for it's safety after they leave
the bar, but they needed proof for a murder
rap. Finally, an undercover officer flush
with cash gets surrounded by The Marine
bar girls until mafia thugs send their two
most beautiful girls to suggest a sex-crazed
night in a local hotel. Accepting the invitation,
the cop directs the other police officers
to the hotel.
As the trio get to the room and the two
prostitutes get naked, they ask the cop
to take the so-called "aphrodisiac."
The police bust into the room and arrest
the two prostitutes, confiscating the pill.
They also arrest the four people waiting
in the car and the gang in The Marine waiting
for other suckers.
One the prostitutes, a 16-year-old girl,
confessed about the killing going around
Pattaya and how she and her cohorts drug
tourists, rob them and the gang kills them.
They confess using different methods to
drug the johns. After he has consumed the
pill, powder or liquid, it takes 10 to 20
minutes slip into a heavy coma-like sleep.
Many johns end up dying of heart attacks.
About 75 to 100 tourists are found dead
every year in Pattaya, some from an overdose,
heart attack, fights and some still in bizarre
circumstance. I guess it’s the price
to pay for cheap sex in a land where sexual
exploitation is the main product to sell.
