But then, it gets weird because the prime suspects in the case were people known to expats on both Cambodian expat forums. The husband even worked for one of them. (Not CEO.) The woman was running a (popular?) Tex-Mex restaurant in Phnom Penh.

Most of you know all this, but some newcomers to the forum may be confused since the story is getting bumped up again.
There's also some gruesome photos on darknet somewhere.

I don't know the man or never ate at the restaurant, but I think 2 points are very clear

The restaurant wasn't popular (the amount of ads everyday suggest that)

He is clearly either complicit or was aware (no need for evidence, it's f*ing obvious)

I definitely heard of the restaurant before and it was always a "one day I should try that" but I never actually did. I bet a number of forum members have eaten there, for those that have was it any good?

I ate there once, and got delivery another time. And to be fair. It was tasty.

I even had the infamous ribs. Pretty sure they were not human. Mac n cheese was tasty also.

Got a strange vibe though. Maybe that's just hindsight. Plus, after seeing the freezer and the house with my own eyes. NO WAY is that story plausible.

I actually ordered a chimichanga just before the news broke out. It was delicious but I kind of put this story in the back of my head. I don't want to think about eating food potentially frozen along with human body parts.

Had take out once. Posted a review. Unimpressive food. Got roasted by multiple CEO members for not posting a glowing review of the outstanding food (from their point of view).

Missus had a weird vibe when she was there.

Ran into the guy a couple of times afterwards.

Either way, involved or not (if the case I can't believe he would get involved willingly), a terrible situation to find oneself in this wonderous country. Feel sorry for the guy who just wanted to have a family.

Forums at its best as usual: a lot of baseless speculations and everybody is a CSI investigator, a psychoanalyst, and a serial killer profiler.

Just hope this mess will eventually work out the best it can given the circumstances. Thoughts are with families and friends of all involved one or the other way.

I can't see many that are really speculating on the forum, but it would be better left alone, same could be said for writings and journalism, stories but that indeed sells. Better letting the authorities do their work.
Has for psychopath killers, history and fact would prove many had worked alone.
I had only visited the café once, and that was because, I had read about it on this site, unfortunately we did not eat, due to them not having the ingredient's over the holiday time, she was very apologetic over this, we stayed a little while and had a drink and a pleasant chat with the husband and the few customers.

Like I said about speculation! When we visited it was due to the post on this forum that the husband was promoting the restaurant, also with the free offer of a beer with a meal to members of CEO. Thinking back now the thread has once more come alive, at the time we arrived at the restaurant, we were looking over the menu, when my partner said she desperately needed use of the bathroom. I asked where the bathroom/toilet was, this seemed to send a silence in the room. The wife appeared and shook her head to say "No", and she wandered into the back where she first came from, but then came back and spoke to my partner in Khmer, she then guided her too and from the bathroom. I also noticed the wife was very tense and that of someone being hypoactive at the time. The husband was talking with friends, another customer arrived and sat in the opposite corner to us, but he never talked only to make his order. The wife sat outside on floormats with other Khmer in a position to view the restaurant. Speculation, is now I may understand the other reason why there was no food, that apart from vegetable's, was the freezer full when my partner walked past, and thinking on the guys sitting talking were indeed playing things down and cool.

I went to the old location at toul sleng. It was only take out then. Chicken fried steak and mac and cheese were good. Whole family were just sat outside. They also had a mini stall outside Samai distillery one night I went doing mini bites. All were tasty especially the jalapeño poppers.

If this were "obvious" there would be evidence, no?

I lived a few doors down from the Alamo. Just next door to the little Vietnamese store that sold beer and snacks.
Once a week/Fortnite I would go to order the quesadilla, which I might add was rather tasty.
I came home from work to see all the police and locals chattering about what went on.
As a regular, I never noticed a difference in their attitudes or personas. I would have eaten there two nights before she was arrested. I don't really have an opinion on what happened, whether they are guilty or not. My point is, if he was guilty, he would have been a lot more nervous. He seemed the same to me. He isn't a hardened criminal who may have contained his fear of the act. I also think I am a pretty good judge of character.
Just my 2 cents worth
