According to my Khmer friends she is not the one who went anywhere. They paid a substitute to appear to go to jail.

Believe what you will. A person close to the situation confirmed it. Money is power in this country.

Money gives people power in most countries. Like the saying "money is no problem".
The problem are the Laws, people not abiding by them or "yes" the possibility of braking them along with the system with the aid of monies.
Always "hope" but never "expect".

She drove the car:
I'm not sure, that she sleep bad since the accident.
It musst be the kind of rich kids, who just blame about themself and cry around, what bad time she had since she do the small mistake driving the car "a Little bit" too fast and hit this stupid girl, who crossed her way.....Her father is ver angry on her for the expensive accident she did....

I'm sure her short prison sentence taught her a lesson....about how easy it is to escape the consequences of your actions when you have money

Hit-and-run Range Rover driver ‘Mana’ out of prison
29 August 2019
A hit-and-run driver sentenced to a year in prison by Phnom Penh Municipal Court for killing a promising young scholarship student walked free from prison on Monday afternoon despite having served only two months of her punishment.
Yin Khun Mey, also known as Yin Mana, was handed down the jail term after the Range Rover she was driving crashed into university student Dum Rida’s motorbike in Phnom Penh’s Tuol Kork district on March 26, killing her on the spot.
Wednesday would have seen Khun Mey serve two months of her one-year custodial sentence as she had been held in pre-trial detention since March 29.
A rights group spokesman said her early release highlighted the disparity between the treatment of the rich and the poor in Cambodia’s legal system.
General Department of Prisons spokesperson Nuth Savna declined to comment further on Khun Mey’s release, saying only: “Khun Mey was released from prison on the afternoon of Monday.”
Sok Uorng, the lawyer for the family of the victim, told The Post on Tuesday that he would follow his clients’ wishes.
“Yin Mana was charged and sent to prison by the court on March 29. My clients filed their complaint for compensation the same day."
“After negotiations, my clients accepted the compensation offered by the family and withdrew their complaint at the court on April 3. The prosecutor’s complaint was under the court’s jurisdiction to decide upon,” Uorng said.
On May 17, the court sentenced Khun Mey to one year in prison, with three years suspended, and banned her from driving. She served two months in jail before being released, he added.
Uorng said he could not explain three years of the sentence being suspended. He said the reason should be asked of the court as the sentence was decided by one of its judges.
Phnom Penh Municipal Court spokesperson Ly Sophana could not be reached to comment on this issue.
The driving ban did not have a specific timeframe but was to be decided by the court as well.

Unbelievable. She will be walking around with her chin up over this because she will think she's "somebody important."
Still here, in country...
