French-Canadian STEVE PLASSE and Cambodian Woman Busted for Meth in Kampot

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.

We're writing the year 2020. Maybe even the French could use the English language when posting on an international forum. When I holidayed in France as a teenager and the French couldn't or wouldn't speak English, I thought okay, it's retarded but it's their country. Now I'm thinking along those same lines, but this isn't France. Rant over.

I can't decide if 'meth' sounds more beautiful in English or in French. I assumed it would sound more exotic in French.

Sounds better when spoken by someone who speaks with a high voice.
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.

UPDATE
French-Canadian-Cambodian Couple Appeal Drug Sentence at Supreme Court
Image
Cambodia News, (Phnom Penh): The Supreme Court on the morning of September 27, 2021, held an appeal hearing of a French-Canadian man and a Cambodian woman who were convicted of drug use and trafficking in Sovan Sakor Village and 1 Usaphea Village, Sangkat Kampong Kandal, Kampot City, on June 3, 2020, in accordance with the provisions of Articles 40 and 45 of the Law on Drug Control.

The trial was presided over by Judge Khim Bun, Deputy Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and President of the Trial Chamber, and represented by Mr. Ouk Duch Kimson, Deputy Attorney General of the Supreme Court.

The first accused was Steve Plasse, a 41-year-old French-Canadian man, and the second was Minh Seangly, a 35-year-old woman, according to the report. The two are lovers.

The judge said that in this case, they were both sentenced by the Kampot Provincial Court on September 22, 2020, to 2 years and 6 months imprisonment each for "illegal use and trafficking of drugs ”.
Image
The two defendants first appealed the decision of the Kampot Provincial Court at the Preah Sihanouk Provincial Court of Appeal.
However, the Preah Sihanouk Provincial Court of Appeal upheld the judgment of the Kampot Provincial Court, so the couple continued to appeal to the Supreme Court.
In this case, the Supreme Court will announce its verdict on September 30, 2021.

I would of thought a couple of years in the slammer would straighten you out, a rehab centre for free.
