So how does the deportation process work? I mean, are you handcuffed before departure and all during the flight with 2 law enforcement agents on each side of you? Do you have to pay for your own ticket and do you fly economy? Must be embarrassing as hell no matter how you put it.

Almost certainly

I was about to say the article refers to immigration and foreign office, which would be unusual had the crime happened here.

Kampot town

The Immigration Department, in collaboration with the Foreign Office, has arrested Susan Samuel Douglas Lovejoy, a 31-year-old American, who holds a passport number 548552504 for sexual abuse of children (According to a letter from the Security Attaché) at the fence at Mey Mey village, Meas commune, Kampong Kandal district, Kampot province.

The suspects have now been sent to the General Department of Immigration.

The security attache would be US law enforcement I'd guess.

I think its 15, but some ethnic groups have their own rules and very often cases are dealt with by compensation. For many things in Cambodia its not "do the crime, do the time". For many crimes The state does not proceed with prosecutions if the parties reach a financial settlement.
