Decent catch, only 32 years old and looks like he is in business for himself/or was, I should add. But who was his supplier? Never hear from interagation that as lead to more arrests'. Why! don't Chinese snitch, even if lighter sentences offered, come to think of it, I have never read of any sentences following these crimes, or is there more too this?
Still happy to hear not using the gun, but I do think if the problem of this nature carries on, it will more then likely start too happen, unfortunately.
Khmer teacher with a Range Rover, and what are the green packages on the scales.

I think far to often some women are given lighter sentences, if any at all, despite being knowingly, willingly and actively involved in this business.

I imagine there are several other women and girls also who are involved in these trafficking rings all over the country, but not because of their own choice, so in those cases, I'm all for a 'free get out of jail pass'.

Having said that, I think the police give plenty of free passes to Khmer criminals, guys and gals, and like others have connected, it's be nice to get some feed from the courthouse to know what the actual sentencing is for these people. Maybe the admins can find a public source feed for this data and make weekly posts, making the CEI community better informed. What a great idea!!
