American SHAUN EARL ROBINSON Arrested for Obscenity Against Minors 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.

general-chatter/neo-nazi-flees-cambodia-t18210.html Andrew Anglin, the Daily Stormer guy, was hiding out in SR, too. As much as it's appealing to say pedos and white supremacists are all one and the same, I doubt there's much more overlap among those groups than any other two groups, so you have to wonder what it is.

I suspect it's a mixture of things: half remembered 20/20 specials showing the likes of Gary Glitter in Cambodia, the relatively cheap opulence one can live on with very modest income by western standards, and of course the belief that they can pay off anyone they need to. This belief seems to lead a lot of criminals to "hide out" in places like Riverside, which seems like a gross overconfidence in corruption and ineffectiveness. I'm surprised you don't hear of criminals hiding out in some village in Mondulkiri — you might be able to know for sure that the two cops who ever visit the town are for sure in your pocket. I guess the old police adage applies: criminals are stupid.
White supremist are ignorant and every race has people with the same type of mindset. Even within races you have those ignorant beliefs. Look at how a certain large Asian group in Cambodia looks down on Khmers.
Pedophiles are a whole different story. They are bottom feeders that prey on the weakest segment of the population. Such as a young beggar boy. They destroy young lives and the lives of those that care about the children they victimized.
Any type of racial supremacy is ignorant and wrong but, pedophilia is on a whole different level and in a league of it's own.

Usually it is foreign NGO like Aple doing the investigation and handing over their findings to the CNP.

True. I've reported a situation to them in the past, never knew if anything came of it.

The arrest took place at 11:20 am on August 21, 2019 on the order of the Prosecutor of the Siem Reap Provincial Court of Appeal and Police Force Network and local authorities.

According to the interview, the boy said he was begging around the Old Market (*probably on August 14) and met with a foreigner, and asked for money. He went with the American to his rented room, where he was engaged in a sex act and slept there one night. The American then gave him $ 25 and took him back home. Police added that after our interview ended, he pointed identified the suspect by photograph.

Upon receiving this information, a preliminary investigation was opened and sent to the prosecutor, and 40-year-old Shaun Earl Robinson was called in for questioning. He admitted to having the boy in his room, but denied the charges. At 2 o’clock in the afternoon of August 21, a search was conducted of the suspect’s home.

Authorities confirmed on August 22, the suspect will be sent to court for further action.
I do not condone nor can see why any adult would take a kid , not is own to his room ,really stupid thing to do, BUT
if, when it goes to court
its he says nothing happened, the boy says something happened ( and will be pressured into saying something did, even if nothing did)
the staff can confirm the boy stayed there overnight, BUT is that crime?

I assume they ask the boy if he Shaun any identifiable marks on his .....
Do they do rape kits on boys?
I get your point, but you'd have to be pretty stupid to take someone else's kid to your room (overnight apparently?!) with no other witnesses around.

You don't really have to. They submit evidence to the police and prosecutor and let the courts deal with it.

That's when people start making things up, like how they have been entrapped by corrupt NGO workers or police because they work for schools owned by opposition supporters. It's all bullshit. Those people are guilty as hell.

You've got a case where the bloke admits to having brought a 14 year old kid to his room to play PlayStation but he denies the hanky panky. I don't exactly need to trust Aple or the prosecutor to know that guy is full of shit.

Sometimes the kids just need a Western father figure to improve their lives it’s not wrong just to live together or if they spend a night. Alternative may be the streets

I totally disagree.
No, the kids are Cambodian, and they do not need a western father figure. And yes it is wrong to invite them to live with you or spend the night. Aside from anything else, you do not pick up stray kids like you would pick up a stray kitten.
