Yutthana Juyure, 27, the bridegroom and his bride Nurasatilah Masae were walking around talking to guests and posing for photographs.

Soo.... she's back on the market?
A quick drug deal during his wedding gone wrong?
Nice dress. I'm glad it wasn't ruined by blood spatters. So hard to remove.
Why ya lookin.
He was 27 how old is she ? Maybe her parents didn't get a large enough dowry? So they removed him from the scene?
Shotgun weddings are never a good idea.
Shotgun wedding 9mm divorce.
But but IT was a 9 MM wedding remember ?
Hmm...I smell set-up.
She doesn't look too bothered by it....lol
Most likely a pre-arranged marriage where the groom's parents pay the bride's parents in exchange for their daughter. Typically in those arrangements, the bride is not very happy about the whole thing and not exactly thrilled about living with the guy for forty years. Seeing him dead was probably a relief.
I totally agree!
thats what i was thinking! lol
@ARMYtango, I was thinking the exact same thing!!!
Ehh, you can see divorce all over her face anyways. This guy is probably better off. She looks like a B@#$!
Me too as stated above, but her look is like Oh Crap......He used six bullets and I only paid for 3, how much extra is this going to cost??
Her mascara didn't even run... hummm
my thoughts exactly East
Looks like she is in shock.....
Yeah, go back and look at that photo. That's the definition of shock, she's turned away from him, her eyes are really distance like she's in a daze. Poor girl, the look on her face makes my heart hurt.
Yes in Thailand the Groom pays Sid Sod, when he marries a Thai woman...
The younger and better educated ladies can receive Millions of Baht...
Unlike the USA when the Bride's family has to pay thousands for the man to take her...
Just shows what a US woman is worth, on the International scale...
In Thailand a Man is socially judged on how well he takes care of the bride and her family...
In US a man pays a woman after the marriage in blood and in case of divorce with money and it is fairly obvious how most US marriages pan out.
Vikramjit Singh (India),
How are things in India??? I'm still living in Thailand...
A Indian bride is required to have a dowry, if she is going to be married...
If a India guy marries a US Lady in Thailand, who receives the money and who pays for the wedding???
I told the daughter to get married first in Thailand and then go to India to get married again...
Then it should be a wash and I might not have to pay anything... Ha! Ha!
Probably a wedding from different classes that the elders didn't agree with. not the first time, no one will be charged.
He was 27. How old is she ? 12 or 13 ?
In Thailand it is still legal to marry a 13+year old. Though there are now Laws making it illegal to marry younger than 18, seldom enforced in the rurial areas...
IMO - She looks mid 20's...
Most Thai ladies from 16 to almost 40 years old look the same...
I have been married to a Thai for over 7+years. I'm wondering if she gets to keep the Sin Sod (dowry)...
The fellow holding the rug should have gotten shorter jeans, I've never seen pants with an 8 inch cuff before.
probably because you've never been out of podunk, nowhereville.
That doesn't even look comfortable, I would never leave nowhereville if that were the required dress on the outside.
lol right! what is up with those levis! he must be really short, or borrowed a really tall relatives pants for the special occasion...
In Asia the Jeans are sold by the waist measurment and the length is tailored to fit the buyer...
This is usually preformed while you wait in the store...
he must have the worst tailor in town, how can he overshoot by that much?
Ah, those peace loving Muslims...

What strikes me is how stolid she appears in the photo. Maybe she is in shock, but the photo makes it look as though she is ambivalent to her freshly murdered husband just feet away.
She is probably in shock. I would be.
Looks like she is ready to take off with the shooter. She has her keys, cell phone and camera in hand. He is waiting for the perfect time to bolt.
Why exactly is this international news?
Slow Day in the international News Business...
from the look on her face , '' SHE SAW IT COMING '' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These facts and figures say quite the contrary to what Willard has been touting as his economic triumphs.
Since Willard refuses to tell us what his grand plan is to restore economic prosperity to all
citizens of this country, not just the 1% bank-rolling his campaign, every American with a functioning brain cell should take a long hard look at what Willard accomplished during his tenure as Governor of MA;
If this is considered success – I would hate to see what the RWNJ’s consider failure…
Willard is a dog-hating, store bought cookie snob, serial flip-flopper, draft dodger!
When did it become acceptable in this country to support someone with no core, moral
compass or integrity?
30+ years of the disastrous trickle policies led us to the brink; do we really want to take the plunge to finish the job, if given the choice?
Figures don't lie, but liars sure figure...
I f--king hate election years.
Whatya hard up to say your piece even if it has "nothing" to do with this story? I just skip over comments like yours.
No pun. Geesh.................................................WTF.
That guy was just dying to get out of the marriage
she didn't like the guy anyway
You guys are a real compassionate bunch.
I agree. Good thing I wasn't killed before my wedding.
Personally I think the girls in shock. I doubt she had any involvement. Of course that just my opinion. I have the same information to go on as everyone else that just read this article.
I hope the shooter is found, but there is a good chance he'll get away. But IF it was an arranged marriage, there is at least one family that has a vested interest in tracking him down.
Till death do us part.
It was a disgruntled boyfriend and he figured if he couldn't have her, then nobody could.
Just another spoiled rotten ass hole. Happens all over the world.
he's better off anyway, marriage = death in the long run with a whole lot more suffering
There actually is a statistic on that.
Why do men usually "always" die before their wives?
Because they "want" to. :-)
Why was this in MSNBC? What is the message?
Probably because there was a 9 MM involved and the gun control freaks hoped it would drive a world wide campaign to confiscate all 9 MM weapons ?
Just another death in Southern Thailand, average 2+day for the last 8+years...
Ever sense they started ENFORCING the drug laws...
I wish this had taken place in a law & order society like Iran. She'd be in jail already.
The "speak now or forever hold your peace" phrase HAS TO be eliminated from Muslim weddings.
Why is this even international news? They are not international figures or well-known celebrities, there is no indication that the murder had any sort of international connection whatsoever, or even any connection to Thai politics or anything. And as a story, it is poor journalism - no explanation or investigation as to why it occurred.
It seems to have been posted for pure sensationalism. And it also seems to me that if this had happened in the US or Europe, I doubt such a "graphic" image would have been posted. Has anyone else noticed that most of the time when bloodied dead people are shown in the mainstream news, they are from events in non-Western countries?
I guess he won't be getting laid, except laid to rest!
