Help Parents Find Missing Son DAVID SIEGEL: Has Girlfriend, No Money, Maybe on Riverside Or In the Cambodian Jungle

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO.

I will continue to add more info to Genie's post as she continues to send it to us, in the hopes that some of this extra info will eventually lead to someone recognising and finding him:

"Here is photo of the girl David Siegel met on day one Cambodia. He met her at the casino, Pnom Penh. I don't know if he turned to drugs or is brainwashed. We feel we have been scammed by both. She has an uncle, and a grandma we know of. Someone changed him for the worse."

General Mackevili wrote: Fri Jul 07, 2017 1:54 am I've added this to the first post, as they sent us additional info and it sounds like they're not able to post very easily, and I told them I'd help post it for them:

"Thanks. He was an A student in American college....beautiful childhood, loving family. He joined Peace Corps T hiland, Quit after 5 weeks. Then wandered alone through Asia, and met a girl he paid 10,000 random fee to save her. He lost all his money in cambodia. We helped him alot, but it's now 4 years. Some man we don't know text my husband. He is on the streets...or jungle? Can't understand man...no name. We feel Our son has undiagnosed autism, or has become mentally ill. A very smart person with no common sense. Thanks so much. We love him. He wants to become a college professor one day...but is lost in Cambodia."

much of this doesn't ring true, sorry the doubting Thomas in me

finished college at 20-21 years old? Peace corps is VERY selective and if he had problems they never would have accepted him and if u do quit they send u BACK to america, dont let u just wander off as u need return to the states to sign off.
$10,000??
4 years ago they helped him but....

"His girlfriend "Laak" just got 30,000" $$$ from where....how do they know?

Surely immigration has the date of his arrival and all hotels report when someone stays, so.... Did they contact the embassy>?( although wouldn't expect much help form them)

another lost soul on the streets of asia? . look for a go fund me to start up soon to help "find" him
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Someone? Probably himself.

Doesn't look like "yer typical Naga World lady" unless of course they are referring to some "underground" casino set up in some Filipino's back room :D However I'm sure if you showed that photo around Darling Darling and also to any moto/tuk tuk driver that hangs around outside you might well come up with a lead. A job for JL :lol:
