She was a woman with a Thailand passport in her lingerie dead from stabbing about 20 times in her back, left arm, left rib area and neck. Investigators believe she was running prostitution services from the apartment when Wang allegedly stabbed her during a robbery attempt, ransacked the apartment, stealing a designer purse while leaving behind $1,200, and then set fire to the apartment, forcing evacuation of dozens, and fleeing the state to Oregon and California.

A man who shared the lease with Saosawatsri told police he had helped the Thai national acquire the one-bedroom rental, which she used for prostitution, using backpage.com to find clients, according to the police report, and Wang's number was on her phone [1] On April 1, Wang apparently pawned a Louis Vuitton purse and matching wallet at a pawn Portland, Oregon.  At about 12:15 a.m. Tuesday April 7, a highway worker noticed Wang sleeping in a car in a rest area on Highway 97 in northern California where he was arrested. Some say he owned them money when ang posed as the owner of a car dealership with his own website, but he was a translator at a previous employer. Wang told the scam victim that he would "bring the money back, he needed it to save some people".Victim was linked to a federal human trafficking and prostitution investigation two years ago in Bellevue. Court documents show the women were recruited from Thailand and provided services at apartment buildings in Bellevue.
