American,TOM O'CONNELL, Found Dead in White River II Hotel

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

So they don't know what they are talking about, they are trying to say they were knocked out from "meths", which as most would know is a strong stimulant.
read it again. i am not trying to say that at all. maybe english is your second language
Whatever "meths", good luck with the drugs that are being "administered" to you. :?

My thoughts are methamphetamine.
or fake viagra. Some of it has been found to have 2 or 3 times the active ingredient in it and that is enough to kick off a heart attack. Some is just chalk, but some is just badly prepared and mixed copies. Funny thing is it out of protection now so you get proper stuff in Thailand with a 1000 baht prescription for less than thye charge for the shit fake/copies on the street :facepalm:

dont most, if not all hotels now, take a girls id card before they go up to a guests room?
if so, the front desk would know he had a guest.

Do they sell Kamagra there? friends of mine swear by it, 50 tabs are only 1,400 baht here

Why would anybody in a thread about a deceased person in cambodia be interested about the price of drugs for old sextourists in thailand?

The mistake you might be making is thinking a Khmer or Khmer business would ever rat on another Khmer, especially at the benefit of a barang or at the expense of a Khmer, even if they never saw the Khmer person before.

Why is that whenever there's a report of a routine white guy drug overdose or death by natural causes in Cambodia, someone comes onto the thread to say "It was MURDER!" "He knew too much!" "Khmers were after his money!"

There are some very paranoid people on here who think the locals only exist to persecute them. Rather pathetic really.

That’s so sad. Cambodia doesn’t really have strong mental health services. Maybe those with delusional paranoia, schizophrenia, or other issue need to stay in their own countries and get the help they need to live happy lives?
