If it turns out that the allegations don't stack up...
What are the chances of that?

Has a barang ever been found not guilty of a crime in a Cambodian court?

International News!!

If it turns out that the allegations don't stack up the damage to this man's reputation is tragic.

Lot to be said for remaining single. Avoid these situations!
He has admitted to locking them up against their will. It doesn’t matter if he wanted sex acts or not in return, he broke the law.

I would say slim to fucking Zero after how he treated the cops when they arrived at the property. That alone will have sealed his fate.

This.
Paparazzi, do you actually know Jim ? I was wondering about his mental state. 69 is not too young for dementia.
And frankly, I think the damage to his "reputation" is the least of his worries.

I think it's more likely that his 38 yo g/f is the one with dementia.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Last l heard was Jim was in the jail by the waterfall.
Khmer friend had taken his medicine to him.

I know a Kiwi and his Khmer wife went to the police station the day of the arrest and helped arrange a lawyer.

Yes pissing cops off going to problematic.

Lets retrack a little. If angry Khme girlr wants out of room open the door wide and let her out- then lock the door on her permanently!!

Option two is put as much distance between girl and you if in a conflict. Get out of house and come back next day or two.

Option three is if the girl has a history of 'angry bird' pack your bag and get on a plane. These type of women look best from 30,000 feet up.

Australian charged in Cambodia with locking up three women and demanding sex
Wed 3 Jan ‘18 01.03 GMT
An Australian man in Cambodia has been arrested and charged for allegedly locking up his girlfriend, her younger sister and her niece and then demanding sex.

James Bernard King, 69, was arrested on 28 December in the coastal town of Sihanoukville, Cambodian police said in a media statement.

It’s alleged he refused to let the women leave the house unless the sister and niece had sex with him.

The women allegedly pleaded with King, who was unarmed, to let them go, but were held for hours before they were able to contact a relative, who notified the authorities, the Post reported.

“At night, King locked the doors and did not allow those people to get out,” said National Police spokesman Kirth Chantharith. “He put the condition that his girlfriend [must] cook a meal for him, and the other two [Kea’s sister and niece] must go to the room and have sex with him, otherwise he will not allow them to leave his house.”

Police were called to the house on 27 December on a report of illegal confinement, according to the release.
When officers arrived, King allegedly locked the door forcing a standoff for two hours before police forced their way in, freeing the three women and two children.

Sihanoukville provincial court prosecutor Chab Sok Raksmey told the Post King was charged with illegal confinement, which carries a one to three-year prison term...
