Pattaya_Fox Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 American accused of sexually assaulting a 5 year old girl. On Friday, Pattaya Police received a complaint from the Mother of a 5 year old girl who claimed that an American Resident of Pattaya was sexually abusing her daughter and keeping her inside his house against the wishes of her family. The complaint was made by Khun Ornanong aged 21 who works in a bar in South Pattaya. Her report stated that she had recently made a contract with Mr. Lynwood Elmer Vinum aged 72 from USA who lives at the Rungland Village in South Pattaya and has lived here in Thailand for 20 years. He agreed to adopt the young girl and support her through school as her Mother and family who live in Chachensow Province, do not have enough money to support her. In exchange, the girl would stay at Mr. Vinum’s house on regular occasions. The complaint was made following accusations that the child was now staying at the house on a permanent basis and the child’s mother was denied access to her child. Police went to the location and detained Mr. Vinum and took him to Pattaya Police Station where he denied allegations of sexual assault and confining the child to the house. However, the child apparently confirmed to Police that she was abused on a regular basis. For now, Mr. Vinum has been charged with sexual molestation offences involving a minor and the case is expected to be heard in court in due course.
