Paedophile wanted in US nabbed in Phnom Penh
Anti-human trafficking police on Sunday arrested a foreign national wanted by US authorities over child sex abuse in California.

Police cooperated with the US embassy to apprehend 55-year-old Karl Von Boenninghausen in Daun Penh district in Phnom Penh.

“We arrested him based on a court’s warrant from the US state of California that stated that [Mr Boenninghausen] allegedly committed child sexual abuse in Los Angeles,” Colonel Lao Lin, chief of the anti-human trafficking police’s juvenile protection bureau, said today. “Police officers arrested him at the Happy Guesthouse in Daun Penh district. The arrest was coordinated by the Phnom Penh Municipal Court prosecutor.”

Col Lin said that Mr Boenninghausen is now held at the Interior Ministry in order to be questioned.

“We are investigating and continuing the procedure on this case,” he said.

Lieutenant General Chiv Phally, director of the anti-human trafficking and juvenile protection department of Ministry of Interior, said the US national is suspected of committing crimes against minors in the US in 2014 and 2016.

“The US embassy in Cambodia requested General Neth Savoeun, commissioner of the National Police, on August 20 to locate the suspect,” Lt Gen Phally said, adding that the suspect will be sent to the General Department of Immigration.

“We will send him to the General Department of Immigration next,” he said. “He will be deported to the USA soon because the crimes were committed in the USA.”

His future while in California jails and prisons is gonna be ugly! Even though he will be in protective custody, a mandatory green light will be on him. Any white inmate that has a chance to get at him has to. Regardless of the situation. If another white inmate doesn't, that inmate will have consequences. Each race is required to clean up their own trash. His case and charges will be made known by the news or guards before he even hits a cell.

I'm curious to know how they find these people once they've slipped through immigration. It says they arrested him in a guesthouse, which means he can't have been registered in a sanghat anywhere. I know they take a copy of your passport when you check in to guesthouses and hotels, but I assumed that was just kept as some kind of insurance policy if you trashed the room or left without paying. Do they email it through some kind of government database?

I would have thought Cambodia would be one of the easier countries to hide in in you were on the run, but considering quite a few of these animals get caught quite regularly, I'm often curious to know how they find out where they're staying?
The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never allow the dumb ones to lead the pack.

When you check in at a guesthouse or hotel, what usually happens is they take a photocopy of your passport. What you don't see, is that after that the guesthouse/hotel will enter your name on a form for the Immigration Department with passport & visa no, nationality, length of stay - and then all these forms go to the immigration authorities. In a guesthouse in the provinces, they would come around every 2-4 weeks or so and pick them up. Once or twice they checked the staff's ID papers.
I guess the immigration forms go into a computer from there. It's a very laborious process, but there are plenty of bureaucrats so I suppose that keeps them in work.
