*** Content warnings: Sexual assault ***
23-year-old Welsh backpacker Kirsty Jones had her whole life ahead of her when she set out for a two-year trip across Asia, Australia and South America. Tragically, that trip was cut short just two months in when Kirsty was found strangled to death in her room at The Aree Guesthouse in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
Thai police anticipated a quick arrest, but what followed was a media circus and bungled investigation that left the Jones family and young travellers everywhere desperate for answers.
