Chavoret Jaruboon - The Last Executioner. SHOCKING story.

Chavoret Jaruboon was paid by the Thai prison service, to single-handedly kill 55 people That’s 54 men, and one woman. He did this during his 19 year career at the notorious Bang Kwang Prison, aka the Bangkok Hilton. In Thailand, he was best known as ‘The Last Executioner’ before they switched over to lethal injection. But up to that point, Chavoret’s job was to carry out each killing with a submachine gun.
What sort of man was he, and how did he deal with such a challenging role. How did he manage to square his spirituality with killing so many people…after all, he lived in a Buddhist country, that believes heavily in karma.
I’m Peter Laws, and tonight on Our Curious Past, we explore a controversial career that is rarely discussed…as we meet Chavoret Jaruboon: The Man Who Legally Killed 55 People, Single-Handedly.
Please note that this episode is also available as an audio podcast - search OUR CURIOUS PAST in your apps.
NOTE:
If you find this story interesting, I do encourage you to buy a copy of Chavoret’s well-written and gripping book, The Last Executioner. I used the English translation of the book as the prime source of this video. You can buy it from Amazon.

This is well done. I hope the algorithm catches you are because this is top-tier work. I couldn’t believe he only had double digit subscribers.

[@OurCuriousPastPodcast]

I appreciate that, and yes more subscribers would be great. My podcasts (Our Curious Past and Frightful) has been an audio podcast for a couple of years but I’m experimenting with video versions. So I appreciate you watching!

[@OurCuriousPastPodcast]

Thank you Robert, I'm really grateful for your kind comments. It's been exciting to see Frightful get a lot more popular in the last few weeks. This channel still seems to be under the radar a bit, but I hope this will grow too. I'm working on a new Our Curious Past episode today, in fact. Thanks again!

Refreshing to have a video where every second word isn't censored. I will never agree with the Death Penalty though as there are innocent people murdered using it far too often. Even one person executed in error is one too many.

[@OurCuriousPastPodcast]

Thanks for this comment, and I totally get your point about the risks of innocent people being executed. The thought of being in that position is horrendous, and yet you're quite right - it does happen. I appreciate you watching this Pikeman, and for the comment, too.
