Young American girl was raped by old local man in Siem Reap

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.

I've stayed in a few who lock the front gate at night. They always have someone sleeping in the front that you just need to wake up.

No, Johnny, I don't see that info anywhere.

IMO, this woman must be beyond embarrassed - I think that if she'd remembered that he had been kissing this old boy, she never would have gone to the police. Now the whole of Cambodia knows that she was so out've it that she f'ked a stranger without realising what she was doing - resulting in a walk of shame in the expat media.

A Very Bad Trip indeed.

(Up to you, mods, but maybe you don't need to post her name, address and passport n°, even if it's published ? She must really feel like a ton of shit. :oops: )
There was an updated news mentioned her name, age, nationality and her passport number.

It's in bad taste to identify her especially if it does turn out that she was raped.
Agreed. I don't think we need to identify her on here.

However, I see no problem with naming the guesthouse this took place across from.

I was surprised to see that the Cambodian press was nice enough to blur her face.
Ha ha I wanted to translate the updated news which mentioned her name, age, nationality and her passport number. However luckily I didn't do it.

exactly..

two very unusual things

-- NYE doors locked at night - really every guesthouse knows about that booze & party night, and 99% of the guests would rant drunk at locked doors, by experience..
-- nobody there, who heard the guest.

but HEY !!!
the neighbour was ready out at night or what...

this might not have been his first NYE-rape-party...?

she should be asked if she drank/ate anything at his house.
rape-drugs and so...

I think the real story here is that SO MANY PEOPLE think this is a story. She was MONUMENTALLY STUPID. Period. Live and learn. But NOoooOOooo being a child of the times she seeks to make it the fault of someone else trying to squirm out of ANY responsibility.

That this kind of chickenshit thinking is AIDED by so many is deplorable and sad. Do whatever you want and if something you don't like happens make someone else pay for it. Maybe she was a keen student of the gamblers who made US taxpayers cover their losses.
