wcoast Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Thai tourist police include foreigners, and of course caucasians would be used in an operation such as this. One report says that the undercover Police were Thai tourist Police , another report says that they were U.S operatives .Sent from my abacus using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chippendale Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 The irony ..... Book synopsis: Lali, a beautiful young Burmese lady is "found" by a farang, who arranges with her massage parlor 'mama san' to allow her to go to the United States. In real life, our proud hero Ken Albertsen's story doesn't have a happy ending. Part 2, the sequel: Jailhouse Blues, a Pimp's Diary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the nature of his "adverts" on Facebook and Craigslist I should imagine the service he provided was somewhat more comprehensive... That's probably why both the Thai and US authorities were so keen to "sting him". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAFO Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 If the accused is found guilty I hope they lock him up here not the U.S. In a U.S. prison he would have 3 square meals and some rights. Of course had the accused been caught in the U.S. he would be out already as being a pimp in the U.S. isn't a high crime, especially a first offense The big takeaway however is he just one of many old slime ball foreigners from various countries doing the same crap. I find is despicable because they exploit impoverished girls, flash money at them and they really have no idea what is in store for them. it likely not glamorous based on the foreigners you see walking around the tourist areas. Many of the creepy old men that come to SEAsia are abusive to their guest of the night and make them do some horrible things then hop a plane back. Its a weird world and never ceases to amaze me what one human being can do to another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I believe if guilty this guy should be punished, but the idea that he should rot away in prison for more than a few years for arranging prostitution between willing participants of legal age I think is a little rugged...

mauGR1 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Years ago, i think the same guy was advertising free-climbing around Chiang Rai, i was almost going to contact him, then i chose another destination for my trip. Honestly, i don't see him as a hardened criminal.. Foolish, greedy maybe, but to define him "a human trafficker" is a bit too much imho. Then, some poster here gave a hint of him doing these "tours" for quite a while... How could he think to get away with that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzzyJohn Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 So...it turns out he has never been charged with human trafficking after all. A slanderous lie. The next question is......Excluding the tabloid which initiated this particular 'discussion', how many posters on here stand the distinct possibility of facing charges of defamation? And, if you think you are anonymous, think again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzzyJohn Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Yes. I totally agree. Maybe we need a new thread. Maybe two even. Certainly we could all discuss what we believe would be fare restitution for libelous statements made pretrial...statements that may prove to prejudice the outcome of the trial itself.

wcoast Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Ozzyjohn, altho I agree with your sentiment, I hardly believe the mussings of posters here could ever waft beyond their keyboards, certainly not to the benches of Thai courts. Even the statement of what the charges are is speculation, as I believe these have not been formalized so far. As is the norm here in TV, the spew is generally vile and the crowd self aggrandized. No doubt the subject of this thread suffering from the same, living in an alternate reality. Anyway this whole shitshow brought on by a teeny tiny fish in a giant pond of sharks and bottom feeders. Seriously a non event in the big picture of the Thai sex industry. I'm hoping that at least the courts will be the most level headed participants in this botched display on display. If anyone is guilty of human trafficking it's the mamasan who gathered and escorted the women across the border and paid out the women and pocketed the handsome commission in front of the undercovers, imho.Sent from my abacus using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
