Owner of Alamo Cafe Admits to Murder & Shows Police Where She Dumped the Body Parts in Phnom Penh, Cambodia (Sentenced)

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

^^ not to mention the hassle the poor guy would get off suspicious busy body middle aged expat women who would accuse him of being a pedo living with kids who weren't his every day of his life here.

Look at it this way. Let's say they were married in a civilized country like the USA. They move in together and she brings a kid and two nephews. A couple of years later, they divorce, or she's thrown in prison, or she dies.

Would the stepfather have any lawful obligation to provide child support for those kids or care for them if she died? No, not unless he adopted them. Why not? Because we have determined as a society that we are not offended by people severing the relationship with their spouse's children when the relationship with the spouse is severed.

If people who married single parents then immediately became legally obligated to care for their spouse's kids until age 18, it would be a lot harder for single moms to find anyone to marry them.

You know who is responsible for these kids, morally and legally? Their biological parents. Not someone who marries a biological parent who then turns out to be a murderer. So if one of these kids is hers,and she's in prison, the biological father should care for the kid. And if two kids are nephews/nieces of her deceased sister, then their biological father should step up to the plate.

Her expat husband has no moral obligation to care for these kids now just because their fathers are deadbeats. If he wants to stay in the country and care for these kids, that's his decision, but the suggestion that it would be "heartless" for him to pack his bags and leave ASAP is terribly unfair to him.

No one ever suggested that. Rather, the term 'heartless' was directed at the author of the above quote ie it is heartless to suggest the husband shouldn't get a lawyer for his wife, it is heartless to suggest he 'should' just walk away from the family..the implication being the husband hasn't developed any relationship with her kids and should abandon them. Too much judgement without knowing their situation imo.

Please, from now on leave Morticia and myself OUT of this clusterfuck. Requests for information will be deleted immediately. We will allow things to unfold as they unfold. I will be posting nothing further on the matter.

Please everyone end the wild speculation on anything in the past. The present is enough to show the woman is an obvious sociopath and ANYONE doubting that now needs to get their fucking head examined.

The daughter of a woman who was killed and dismembered in Phnom Penh earlier this month requested the authorities on Wednesday to impose the death penalty on the woman who killed her mother, after listening to the killer confess and describe her gruesome actions without any remorse.

Pich Sievmey, the only daughter of the victim, Koem Yaneang a 40-year-old widow, said: “The suspect killed my mother and cut her corpse into small pieces which she threw into the Tonle Sap river. She spoke without any expression of guilt.

“I know the constitution in Cambodia allows only life imprisonment but, as far as I’m concerned, I want the authorities to give her the death penalty to provide justice for my mother,” Sievmey said.
She said it took five days, from June 5 to 9 before she was able to dispose of all the body parts. “I am very smart. I used to be a chef and I have experience in chopping up chickens, pigs and cows,” she said.
I'd call it first degree murder, in many US states, death penalty can be imposed.

A noteworthy few sentences from that Phnom Penh Post article:

A Military Policeman who is part of the investigation but who requested not to be named said the suspect was the only killer, and no one else was involved.

“Experts have verified the suspects’ answers, the timeframe involved and the location of the evidence, and examined the victim. No one else was involved. But the police have not yet ended the investigation,” he said.

The story has made the UK tabloids:
Restaurateur kills friend and dismembers body because 'she could not repay debt'
Tim Sophal chopped up her friend's body with a meat cleaver before dumping parts of it in a river in Cambodia
