Bond Denied for Alleged American Pedophile Jason Edward Clemmer Who Fled To Cambodia Where He Was Arrested & Extradited
A judge revoked bond for a man who fled the country rather than stand trial on child sex crime charges.
Jason Edward Clemmer allegedly flew to South Korea just before he was to stand trial on 25 counts of exploitation of a minor.
The 41-year-old Belmont man was on the lam for nearly a month before U.S. Marshals brought him back to Gaston County from Cambodia.
Investigators later found that Clemmer used a newly-obtained passport on Aug. 3 to board a flight from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport to Seoul, South Korea, according to District Attorney Locke Bell.
According to Bell, Clemmer then took a flight from South Korea to Thailand, and then another flight from Thailand to Cambodia, a nation in southeast Asia.
Bell says Clemmer was being followed, though he did not say by whom, and put in a Cambodian jail. After spending more time than he wanted in the Cambodian jail, Clemmer chose to return to the United States, according to Bell.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Jason Edward Clemmer was arrested in Tasom Guesthouse in Siem Reap on August 19 by immigration police.
