Emergency rescuer in Thailand admits he sexually assaulted actress during a medical episode
On 31 March, a Thai actress shared a harrowing experience where an emergency rescue worker sexually assaulted her while she was suffering a medical episode.
She said that the attack had occurred while she was unable to defend herself. However, she was lucid and fully aware that the person who was supposed to be helping her through a medical emergency was using the opportunity to take advantage of her sexually.
According to Khaosod, the man has since confessed to the act to the police. Authorities have charged him with sexual assault.
A helper turned assaulter
In her Instagram post, 30-year-old Gulasatree “Christine” Michalsky shared her account in both Thai and English.
“While I was in an extremely vulnerable state, unable to move or protect myself, I was sexually assaulted,” she wrote.

On 1 April, she filed a report at the Khlong Tan police station and gave her account of the incident. The actress also wore the same clothing as on the day of the incident.
She said the incident occurred between 2am and 3am on Tuesday (31 March). She told police that the man did not perform CPR on her, but instead molested her.

Earlier reports indicate that she had claimed he took obscene photos of her as well, but she has since amended it to say that she only saw him using his phone while molesting her.
Man admits to wrongdoing
Police found the man’s behaviour suspicious. While rescue teams typically respond to calls in groups, the man arrived alone and without equipment.
Authorities also confirmed that the man was indeed an emergency rescue worker, but came from outside of Bangkok. However, because he was part of a chat group for Bangkok-based emergency rescue workers, he was able to respond to calls for help.
When they initially brought him in for questioning, he reportedly denied the allegations and claimed that he had simply been performing CPR.
However, on 2 April, he retracted his earlier claims and admitted the crime. He also admitted to taking photos of the defenceless actress, but had deleted them after seeing the news grab public attention.

He insisted that he never had any intention of sharing those photos. Police have detained him for further questioning.
