A 44-year-old automotive company employee was found dead in a bronze-grey Honda HRV on August 8, 2026, around 11:00 a.m. on a road in Sri Racha, Chon Buri Province. A painter named Somsak noticed the car idling unusually near noon, attempted to wake the woman inside by shaking the vehicle, and discovered her lifeless body when he opened the door. Police determined she had been dead for at least seven hours. Inside her handbag, investigators found multiple sleeping pills in their original packaging and a notebook containing a lengthy farewell letter expressing despair over work stress, accusations of financial wrongdoing, family concerns, and feelings of hopelessness about her job and personal circumstances. The letter detailed her struggles with work conflict, health problems, and financial difficulties. An examination of her body revealed no signs of physical trauma. According to the painter's account, he first noticed the running car at approximately 1:00 a.m., saw it still idling the following morning, and checked on it around noon when he became concerned. Police initially attribute her death to stress related to workplace and personal problems.
