A disturbed woman who suspected her husband of cheating on her
decided to get his attention by hanging their son, filming it and
sending the footage to her husband.
Nareumon Jampasert, 28, had a rope around the neck of 1-year-old
Theeradej Saisupan as she suspended him in the air while making threats
which she recorded and sent to the boy’s father, Jakrit Saisupan, 32.
In the video, the frightened child could be heard screaming in pain as
his mother suspended him using the rope. She later threw him onto a bed
where he continued to cry. Nareumon then continued filming herself
threatening to kill the baby.
She said to the camera: “You see, Joe. You care about people a lot.
This is your son. This is a rope. Look at it. It’s not dead. I do not
kill it yet. Look at it. I will take it go to die somewhere. You have to
wait to see me today.
“If you don’t come back to take him you have to wait to see what happens today. You don’t answer my phone, yeah.”
Immediately Jakrit got the video, he shared it with his sister and
mother who then shared it online in a desperate bid to raise the alarm.
As soon as authorities saw the video, they raced to the apartment in
Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday at 4.30 p.m. to check on the child then
they arrested Nareumon.
Nareumon appeared the next day at a press conference in which she
broke down in tears and apologized. She told officers that she was
stressed because sales from her online shop had been low and she feared
that her husband was seeing another woman because he was spending a lot
of time at work
She said: “I’m hurting a lot. The first thing I was thinking was that
I wanted to kill myself. I did this to the baby because I wasn’t
thinking, and I was emotional. In my heart I’m thinking my husband does
not care about his son, does not care about his wife. I took the baby
and I wanted to do something to make my husband hurt. I took the video
and sent to him. He sent to his sister and then they sent me the message
to calm down and not do this. After I spoke with his family it was OK
and me and the baby were sleeping.”
The baby was unharmed in the attack and the police said they will not
charge the mother because her husband was not willing to take it
further and the mother pointed out that if she went to prison there will
be no one to take care of the child.
