Thai Man Films Himself Killing His 11-Month Old Daughter On Facebook, Then Commits Suicide

Thai man, Wuttisan Wongtalay filmed himself killing his 11-month-old daughter in two video clips posted on Facebook before committing suicide, police officer in charge of the case, Jullaus Suvannin said on Tuesday.

People could access the videos of the child’s murder on her father’s Facebook page for roughly 24 hours, until they were taken down around 5 p.m. in Bangkok on Tuesday.

“This is an appalling incident and our hearts go out to the family of the victim.

“There is absolutely no place for content of this kind on Facebook and it has now been removed,” a Singapore-based Facebook spokesman said in an email to Reuters.

Facebook said it was reviewing how it monitored violent footage and other objectionable material after a posting of the fatal shooting of a man in Cleveland, Ohio was visible for two hours before being taken down.

The harrowing footage from Thailand showed Wongtalay tying a rope to his daughter Natalie’s neck before dropping the child from the rooftop of a deserted building in the seaside town of Phuket.

“Wuttisan’s suicide was not broadcast but his lifeless body was found beside his daughter.

“He was having paranoia about his wife leaving him and not loving him,” Jullaus told Reuters.

Wuttisan’s wife, Jiranuch Triratana told Reuters that she had lived with him for over a year.

At first, the relationship had gone well, she said but then he grew violent and sometimes hit her five-year-old son from a previous husband.

She said that she feared that something was wrong on Tuesday when she found he had left home with Natalie, whose nickname was Beta.

She set out to look for them
