Wendy Albano was an American businesswoman[1] murdered in 2012 in a hotel room in Bangkok.[2] Authorities in the U.S. contacted the United States Department of State, leading to the arrest of a suspect hiding in India in 2014.[2] The chief suspect was an Indian business associate who fled to India after her death.[3] One of the key pieces of evidence that made him a suspect was their known business relationship and video surveillance from the hotel.[2] U.S. Senator Bill Nelson asked then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to help with the case.[4][5]
