Could he look more like a pedo you if he tried? Mullet. Check. Fanny pack. Check. Beer belly matched with scrawny legs. Check. Thick-rimmed spectacles. Check. Sweaty bitch tits. Check. Horrendous checked lumberjack shirt. Check.

The guy looks guilty.
So did the cops and the ngo know there were underage girls there before buddy showed up? Did they just luckily kick the door in and catch him?
Don t get me wrong if he is guilty he is a piece of shit, but I can t help but wonder how he came to there attention and if the fact he is barang make the arrest that much better. Again I don t care if he was set up or whatever if he is a diddler, he deserves to be hung by his balls

I had a massage by a girl of indeterminate age a couple of months ago on a back street. She offered a discount service but I refused the kind offer. (I had a very bad back that was spasoming )

When I walked out i noticed lack of staff in the entrance area where they were all hanging around when I went in.

He could have been set up but if you get offered something that looks young then you get what you deserve if you play with it.

They are called 'MOOBS.'

Danny Lee Pope also admits in the video to giving one of the underage girls $100 for "food," so that definitely sounds a bit odd if you ask me.

He could have been teleported there by aliens who created him as a social experiment to see if you were smart enough to figure it out but it's not very likely so perhaps we should just accept it as it is reported instead of making things up but what the hell do I know.

He's a John and this looks very bad. But where's the news of the pimp being arrested? Surely, that's even worse?

Danny Pope (going by Lee Pope on Facebook) was arrested right across from The Rising Sun and FCC on Phnom Penh's Riverside, and there's another foreigner in the pics. Not sure if he's just a rubber necker or if he was involved in his arrest.
