The details of this story are so disturbing that makes so angry as I type this! These folks need to be put to death but probably get tortured first in the most cruel manner! Including the "mothers" of some of these children!

| LOS ANGELES - EXCLUSIVE: Three Americans "tourists" are on their way home from Cambodia Monday after being arrested in an on-going federal sex tourism investigation. The arrests are part of "Operation Twisted Traveler," an effort by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to identify and prosecute sex tourists to Cambodia. The suspects - whose names will be released by ICE officials at an L.A. News conference Monday - are allconvicted child sex offenders who served time in U.S. Prisons. After their release investigators say they all headed to the most destitute neighborhoods in Cambodia, one of the poorest nations in Southeast Asia, where it is believed that they once again sexually assaulted young boys and girls. One of the men allegedly bought a 13-year-old Cambodian boy for $2 and a bag of rice, and raped him five times. As one of the thousands of Western pedophiles, this 41-year-old California sex offender thought he could get away with the crime by escaping to Cambodia, the capital of the billion-dollar sex tourism trade in Southeast Asia. But local police and U.S. Investigators had the American under surveillance. Now, he and two other California pedophiles are on aboard a jet landing Monday morning in Los Angeles from Tokyo. Another of the men on board is a 74-year-old police call the "Pied Piper of Pedophiles." He spent nine years in a California prison for molesting as many as 500 boys. After his release from Atascadero State Hospital, where he refused treatment, records show he traveled to Southeast Asia at least eight times, where sources say he rode his motor scooter through the poorest neighborhoods of Cambodia's capital Phnom Penh, dropping a trail of U.S. Dollar bills, to lure young boys back to his home where they were allegedly sexually assaulted. The third man, a 59 year-old convicted of 18 counts of sexual intercourse with minors in 1995 in Menlo Park, was caught molesting a 10 year-old Vietnamese girl in an area called Kilo 11, a haven of child brothels 11 kilometers outside Phnom Penh. "Cambodia in particular has been known for some time as a pedophile haven because there's been a broken justice, no rule of law, and actually no laws on the books that would have been enforceable against these types of activities until recently," said Jeff Blom, an investigator with International Justice Mission. "We need to change the fear equation, make pedophiles fear going to jail." Cambodian police say other victims were believed to be given $5 or $10 after each sexual act and the children were photographed naked. Mothers of two of the abused boys lived on the street and sold their boys for $100 because, they said, 'they needed the money." |
