# 151 Scott Neeson: Questions for Sumner Redstone & Heather Graham









Dear Heather Graham and Sumner Redstone

You have drunk Scott Neeson’s Cool Aid.

A mistake!

You have both lent your names, your reputations, your celebrity and your money to a man who is parsimonious with the truth and to an organization that is not as it appears to be in glossy brochures, in hagiographic articles about the 'movie mogul who gave it all up etc' or on Facebook.

I neither expect or want you to take my word for it. I do expect you, however, to ask some questions of Scott Neeson and, if not satisfied with the answers, to respond appropriately. If not, you are morally complicit in the various scams Scott Neeson is engaged in to enrichen the Cambodian Children’s Fund through the exploitation of the poverty of the families he is supposedly helping.

I do not make this statement lightly and would not make it if I were not able to back it up. Rest assured, I can back it up. And I will back it up in due course. The question for you both now is whether, to use a hackneyed but apt cliché, you are both part of the problem or part of the solution.

Take this advertisement to be found on the Cambodian Children’s Fund website:


Do your maths.

$1,800 to sponsor one child is almost double the Cambodian per capita income. It is enough money to support not just one child but to support an entire family.

Think about that.

The Cambodian Children’s Fund modus operandi is to take that one child from his or her family and house them in a crowded dormitory. And I do mean ‘crowded’.

Just yesterday I interviewed two former CCF residents. One had to share her bed with two other girls. The other had to share her bed with 3 other girls.

3 to 4 girls per bed!

Do your maths.

CCF receives, from sponsors, more than $5,000 per year per bed.

And what assistance does CCF give to the impoverished families of these two girls and hundreds of children like them? $250 of ‘rice support’.

Do your maths.

That’s $4,000+ per year of sponsor monies into CCF’s coffers per bed and $750 per year to the families of the girls sleeping in these beds.

And these girls are the lucky ones. At least they get to share a bed. Other girls have to sleep on the floor.

This 3 and 4 children to a bed story is one that is repeated time and time again in interviews I conduct with current and former CCF residents.

Are you aware that such overcrowding exists in the CCF dormitories? Does it bother you? Have you asked Scott Neeson if the children at CCF get a bed of their own? Will you now ask him? And if his answer is “No, Mr Ricketson is right, the children sleep 3 and 4 to a bed and some on the floor”, will you continue to support CCF?

It gets worse.

One of the girls I interviewed yesterday had to drop out of a CCF school in order to go back to working in the dump, along with her 11 year old brother. The $250 in ‘rice support’ provided to the family by CCF is nowhere near enough to keep the wolf from the door. 

It gets worse still.

The former CCF girl who works in the dump with her 11 year old brother, has a sister who is still with CCF. Whilst she shares a bed with 2 other girls, earning CCF $1,800 a year, the rest of her family, working in the dump (including her 11 year old brother) are barely surviving on their combined income of around $1,000 a year.

This is the reality of what you have both lent your names and reputations to?

You should, of course, take what I write here with a grain of salt. But you should also, for the sake of your own reputations, ask Scott Neeson a few questions and expect direct answers to them.

At present you are both part of the problem. The question is, “Will you be part of the solution?”

best wishes

James Ricketson

Sumner Redstone is a major financial contributor to CCF

  1. Evil manifests in many forms. The exploitation of children lines up as one of the worst. To pluck the heartstrings of a gullible if kindly public just magnifies the evil. Thank God for people like James Ricketson, who are unafraid to shine a strong light and ask tough questions.

  2. well 403, if your hero is so wonderful and honest then let him come forward and prove it.............he has been challenged; he has been blamed for his misdeeds; the people who sponsor him may not know how dishonest he is; What James has done and done well is cause a lot of people to question neeson/and his band of thugs; his buddies have come out in force with their undying love for him. that's fine; but he will dump them in time and they will change their story; he may force them to take the rap for him..............as to his sponsors............be ware; the man you are giving your money to is not who you think he is; just have a look and listen to his employees that come on this blog............are they really people you want on your payroll? pull out while you can; soon your name will be one with his; and that's not going to be pretty; Wes

  3. Are either of these two, or the board of directors aware of what they have as the head of their Child Protection Unit? They may be aware that James McCabe is a convicted felon, but what was his intent when he was stealing drugs during a sting operation when he was working for the Australian Police?

    Can anyone make a logical argument that his intent was to do anything other than to SELL them? To DEAL them? Can his family? Neighbors? Wife? Working companion? Drinking buddies? Scott Neeson? Alan Lemon?

    It was earlier reported that Neeson and McCabe were living together, were they living together when McCabe stole the drugs? Does anyone believe that McCabe only did this one time and it was this one time that he happened to get caught? IF he had done this previously, how did he dispose of the drugs? Gee let me think!

    Where is McCabe's resignation??

    1. Did you get all excited when writing this absolute speculative bullshit? I can just see you all puffed up and powerful, sitting behind your computer in your pyjamas writing comments on this ridiculous blog.

      Ricketson - you are a moron - only a few days ago you stand that you would stop any comment that was defamatory to any person. It appears that you are blatantly one sided because these blogs about McCabe and Neeson are defamatory.

    2. Dear Alan

      Yes, I am culling comments that are clearly defamatory.

      All that has been written about Mc Cabe is in the public domain already and I think that you would have difficultly mounting a case, even in Cambodia, that a convicted drug felon has been defamed by the republishing of information available to all on the internet.

      As for Scott Neeson, point out that which has been said about him that is defamatory.

      And what about Scott's defamatory statement about Mr Fletcher from June 2010? Does this concern you at all?






      “There is little doubt Fletcher devotes his time to grooming young girls….The fact is these children can be bought. It’s difficult to stop it. The British Embassy have been told about Fletcher. Many organizations have files on him, but nothing has happened. If you can get this guy sent packing you are doing a service to the children here.”

      Scott Neeson, speaking to journalist Andrew Drummond in June 2010.

      Fletcher was ‘sent packing’ one month later and has been in jail ever since.

    3. McCabe isn't a convicted drug felon - I am not a fined of his and I think what he di was very unethical however if you check the charges that he pleaded guilty to, it was related to theft. So i suits you be very careful about saying and allowing others to write comments that say he is a convicted frog declare and that he was stealing drugs to sell them,. That is purely speculative, based on now facts whatsoever and as such are defamatory.

    4. Anonymous 7:09, seems bit odd that you would be fantasizing about what I am wearing. Now can you answer what McCabe would have done with the stolen drugs other than SELLING them??

      As for the content of your comment, which is pretty clear, despite your reference to James Mc Cabe as a convicted frog, it would certainly make for an interesting case: James Mc Cabe suing me for defamation for writing nothing more than is available to anyone who is half-way proficient with 'google'.

    7. Here is some info. That you might like better Anonymous 7:09, let the reader decide:

      Taken in part from: http://www.abc.net.au/am/content/2004/s1170197.htm

      There are fears that the recent overseas deployment of a corrupt Australian Crime Commission officer may jeopardize Australia's relationship with law enforcement officials in South East Asia.

      AM has learned corruption investigators have serious concerns about the conduct in Cambodia of former Victorian detective and Australian Crime Commission officer, James McCabe.

      The ABC has discovered Mr McCabe is being investigated for his role in illegal drug importation. He is understood to have conducted covert police work in South-East-Asian countries without approval, and an analysis of his assets has uncovered hundreds of thousands of dollars in suspect deposits.

      If the allegations were to be proven in court, they would amount to the most serious corruption ever uncovered inside the nation's elite crime fighting body. But because there is still no corruption watchdog for the Australian Crime Commission, there is no formal investigation into Mr McCabe's activity overseas.

      AM has confirmed authorities are investigating McCabe's role in an importation of heroin from Cambodia to Sydney – an importation which was meant to be monitored by police. It's believed McCabe corruptly interfered with the 350 gram importation, and possibly a number of others to get a cut.

      AM understands an examination of McCabe's assets encompassing his time in South East Asia has uncovered suspect bank deposits totalling at least $200,000.

      The ABC has also learned authorities are concerned McCabe committed serious breaches of police procedure.

      sources say the ACC never approved the trip. The letter contained false information, and that it later emerged the woman who accompanied McCabe was in fact his Cambodian girlfriend. In a statement, the ACC told AM it could not comment on these events because of ongoing investigations.

  5. Dear Scott

    I have just interviewed a young woman who work in the rubbish dump. She is one of a family of 10. Two of her siblings are resident at CCF. Both have sponsors. Between the two, CCF is making $300 a month.

    This morning, this young woman asked me if I could buy rice for her family. They have none to eat.

    CCF's total contribution to the family's welfare in one year is one bag of rice. Yes, ONE 50 KILO BAG. Depending on the quality of the rice that is between $30 and $40 a year that CCF contributes to this family whilst harvesting $3,600 from sponsors for taking care of this young woman's two siblings.

    Something is very wrong here.

    This young woman added that she thought someone at CCF is stealing the rice that has been earmarked for her family. This is not the first time I have heard this story.

    ONE BAG OF RICE, PER ANNUM, FOR THE REMAINING 8 MEMBERS OF THE FAMILY!

    Really, Scott.

    Do your maths.

    Thats around one kilo of rice per week for an entire family. ANd CCF pockets $3,600!

    You can dispute these figures if you wish, but you choose not to dispute anything or to answer any questions - despite CCF getting 100% for transparency from "Charity Navigator"!

    There was a time, Scott, when I thought that you were just a misguided man who believed that children were better off sleeping 3 to a bed in a dormitory and growing up in an institution; removed from their families. No more. I now think you and your partners are engaged in a gigantic scam. If you were merely talking rich people like Sumner Redstone and Heather Graham out of their money it would not bother me all that much. If they are stupid enough to part with it, so be it.

    What irks me is that you are exploiting the poor and powerless in Cambodia not just for financial gain but in order to enhance your reputation as some kind of expatriate saint.

    If you want to prove me wrong, open your doors to the media. Let journalists come and see for themselves, talk to any children they wish to, talk with any members of staff they wish to - without CCF staff hovering and, by their very presence, intimidating them into either silence or toeing the party line.

    And have the balls to respond to me yourself and stop sending in Team Neeson to shoot the messenger.

      People's motivations are complex and it is possible to have multiple motivations.

      I have no reason to doubt that Scott's motivation at the outset was genuine. Alas, as the old saying goes, "power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely."

      When Scott saw an opportunity to create his own little empire, AS WELL, as helping kids, he jumped at it. And when the money began to flow in....well, the rest is history.

  9. Dear Anonymous 8.47

    I have had many a dig at Drummond this past year. Yes, not a pleasant individual and not a poster boy for members of the 4th Estate.

    It was Drummond who quoted Neeson re 'grooming'.

    Tow questions arise:

    (1) Did Drummond misquote Neeson?

    If so, why doesn't Neeson simply come out and say so?

    (2) Drummond quoted Neeson correctly but Neeson had no idea that his offhand comment was going to play such a significant role in the pursuit and persecution of Fletcher.

    (3) If Neeson had, at the time, evidence that Fletcher was 'grooming' young girls why did he not share this with CEOP - with whom he was co-operating at the time?

    (4) If Neeson never ever had any evidence that Fletcher was 'grooming' young girls but was relying on rumour, scuttlebutt, he should come out and say so at this critical juncture.

    (5) David Fletcher has, this past week, accused Neeson of setting up the rape charges against him. Is there any evidence that this is so or is this merely rumour, scuttlebutt? (I will have more to write on this topic in the not too distant future.)

    (6) I have heard plenty of rumours about Scott Neeson, James Mc Cabe and Alan Lemon. And, no doubt, there are rumours floating around about myself. Phnom Penh is that kind of town. However, just as it would be irresponsible, wrong and often illegal to publish these rumours, so too was it irresponsible, wrong, for Neeson to publish his defamatory remarks about Fletcher.

    I think it is high time that Neeson clarified his position visa vis his 'grooming' comment.

    I have, below, published the full contents of a letter I wrote to Andrew Drummond a year ago.

  10. LETTER TO ANDREW DRUMMOND


    Dear Andrew

    In the interests of factual accuracy I have a few questions for you regarding your 20th June 2010 article entitled: “Preying On The Garbage Dump Children: Convicted child sexual abuser runs ‘charity’ for rubbish dump kids in Cambodia.”

    When you refer to David Fletcher as being a ‘convicted child sex abuser’ are you referring to any other incidents other than Mr Fletcher being found guilty of ‘statutory rape’ in the UK with a consenting 15 year old?

    Do you, in October 2014, stand by your statement that “Scots born Scott Neeson of the Cambodian Children’s Fund was negotiating with the mother of a pretty 17 year old girl to save her from a British child abuser?”

    Do you, in Oct 2014 stand by your statement that Yang Dany’s mother was “about to give her third daughter 17-yr-old, Yang Dany, to a convicted British child abuser for the princely sum of US$150 to help clear her family debts?”

    Do you stand by the statement that Yang Dany told you that her future husband (Fletcher) was “a good man”?

    Do you stand by your statement that David Fletcher had convinced Yang Dany to stop going to English classes?

    What do you mean to imply in your sentence, “Clearly he does not need to communicate with the bride he wants?”

    Did Scott Neeson offer to help Yang Dany and her mother pay off their debts? To the best of your knowledge did Scott Neeson help them pay off these debts? How much money did Scott Neeson (CCF) give to Yang Dany and her mother after your 20th June 2010 article had been published?

    You claim to have tape-recorded your conversations with David Fletcher. Was this done with Mr Fletcher’s knowledge and consent?

    Would you please make the tapes available such that the accuracy of your quotes can be verified?

    ...to be continued...

    1. ...continuing...


      In relation to David Fletcher’s conviction for statutory rape, you quote Judge David Mellor as saying, “You exploited a young girl with the lure of money and the disinhibitions of drink, then videoed what happened.” Why did you not also quote that the judge made it clear in his summation that the 15 year old girl consented to having sex with Fletcher? (This omission is pertinent because, in subsequent reporting, thanks to Chinese whispers and the refusal of other journalists to do anything other than re-write your original article and put their names to it, ‘statutory rape’ became ‘rape’ – a quite different crime. Indeed, again thanks to Chinese whispers and sloppy sensationalist journalism, ‘statutory rape’ of a consenting 15 year old became evidence that Fletcher was a pedophile!

      Do you stand by your statement that after his release from prison Fletcher ‘fled Britain’?

      Your write, “Fletcher was not a tactful negotiator. When thought the price was too high he would extend an index finger to the seller and move on.”

      Since you live in Thailand, Andrew, you must be aware that there, as in Cambodia, a variety of gestures are used in the bargaining process to indicate that the price is too high.

      You write, “When we got to the garbage mountain at Stung Mean Chey on the outskirts of the capital he took a cream bun and some fruit to ‘my favourite little girl’ but she was not at home. The girl, aged 8, we later learned, had been rehoused with her family out of harm’s way by the Cambodian Children’s Fund.”

      Are you aware of the assistance David Fletcher gave to this girl and her family after she suffered a horrific accident? Your use of the phrase ‘out of harm’s way’ is clearly intended to convey the impression that David Fletcher posed a risk to this girl and that she had been, in some sense, ‘rescued’ by the Cambodian Children’s Fund.

      Do you stand by the accuracy of your description of Yang Dany as David Fletcher’s ‘fiance’? Did you tape your conversation with Yang Dany also?

      Rather than ask you to verify the accuracy of the many quotes you make of what David Fletcher said to you, could you please supply me with a copy of the tape? I will transcribe it and publish it in full. And I will give a copy to other journalists so that they can confirm that my transcript is accurate.

      You write, “Scott Neeson, 51, founded the Cambodian Children’s Fund with the proceeds of his $US1 million a year salary in Hollywood as International President of Fox then International President for Marketing for Sony Pictures.”

      Did you get any independent confirmation of this information or have you merely printed what Scott Neeson, a skilled marketing person, has told you about himself?

      Did Scott Neeson, in reference to the work he was doing in the dump, say “…this is very rewarding, only people like Fletcher are a continuous source of worry. There is little doubt Fletcher devotes his time to grooming young girls.”

      As you will be aware, unless you have misquoted Scott Neeson, this is a defamatory statement. The only way of determining whether Scott Neeson actually said this or not is to be found on the tape recordings you claim to have made during your research.

      You quote Scott Neeson also as saying, “The fact is these children can be bought. It’s difficult to stop it. The British Embassy have been told about Fletcher. Many organizations have files on him, but nothing has happened. If you can get this guy sent packing you are doing a service to the children here.”

      Did you make any enquiries of the British Embassy in an attempt to discover whether the information Scott Neeson had given you was correct? Which organizations had files on David Fletcher? Did you speak with any of these organizations? If so, which ones?


      ....to be continued...

      Delete
    2. ....continuing....


      You write, “Police have shown they are more than wiling to take pay offs to release foreigners on child sexual abuse charges and most cases are settled with cash payments to one side or other.”

      If this is the case, did it occur to you that perhaps cash was being paid by someone, or by some organization, to destroy Mr Fletcher’s reputation and bring to an end his work in the Phnom Penh dump?

      You quote a spokesman of Britain’s CEOP, Child Exploitation and Online Protection Unit as saying, “We are aware of complaints about David Fletcher and have been in discussion with the authorities.”

      To the best of your knowledge did an investigation made by CEOPS result in any evidence at all that David Fletcher was ‘grooming’ or sexually abusing young girls?

      Andrew, the answers to each of these questions, individually, might not seem to be of great import? The cumulative effect of the statements by yourself, which has led to these questions, is to present Mr Fletcher as an undesirable character who preys of little girls. This was your intention.

      If your intention to vilify Mr Fletcher had been backed up by facts, by evidence, I would have no problem. The problem is, however, that you article is very light of verifiable facts; of facts that carry any weight at all other than in the world of sensational journalism – a world in which the facts can never be allowed to stand in the way of a good story. A portly elderly man abusing kids whom he is pretending to help in a rubbish dump in a third world country is a story made in tabloid heaven and you have gone for broke on it. I am sure the Daily Mail was delighted with your story. I am sure your readers were delighted with it. It’s a great read. I remember reading it myself, a few years ago, and thinking, “Thank God there are journalists exposing scumbags like David Fletcher!” Now, a little closer to the story and having put some considerable effort into finding verifiable facts, as opposed to responding viscerally to unverifiable scuttlebutt, I realize that you are the ‘scumbag’; that you are a journalist who, in the furtherance of your own career, is quite happy to play the role you have played in seeing to it that David Fletcher spends the rest of his life in jail – regardless of whether or not evidence exists that he is guilty.

      I am giving you, here, Andrew, in a quite public forum, an opportunity to answer my questions and rescue whatever credibility remains for any article written by Andrew Drummond. This is more of an opportunity than you gave David Fletcher- whom you made no effort at all to make contact with, to ask questions of relating to allegations made by Scott Neeson that were, and are, defamatory.

      If you have any desire at all to rectify the wrong you have done Mr Fletcher with your sloppy sensational journalism, come to Cambodia and attend the 27th Oct hearing, in which Mr Fletcher will, at last, have an opportunity to present at least some evidence in his own defense. The court proceedings will commence in the Phnom Penh Municipal Court at 2pm.

  11. I wonder if the Justice Prevention League will soon try to prevent any OUTSIDER and FOREIGNER in particular from visiting the Dump.

    Filming and interviewing people, children in particular could be prohibited with large scale "NO" signs as we've witnessed during the NGO War against the NGO Law (LANGO) and every Licadho office in the country. .

    Justice, Transparency and Truth are the last things on their agenda as this blog has proven over and over again. That the Western media (Phnom Penh Post, Khmer Times) and the entire NGO Forum Crowd (even those that are not registered) have all stayed mute on the subject of Mr Fletcher’s conviction speaks for itself.

    APLE's vigilante business model and long arm, to sway things it's way this past decade should be a real cause of concern for everybody. We're now dealing with an entity that looks and feels like a lynch mob.

    Will they now take James Ricketson's last comment to claim he is abusing children, molests, video tapes them and posts their identity on the web as a reason to claim he is a pedophile that must be arrested and jailed for 20 years ?

    None of that would surprise me anymore when I read the Team Neeson threads here that even wish him dead.

  12. Some interesting info about the guy who runs APLE: Thierry Darnaudet

    "The sister of a young boy had been watching the sexual abuse of her brother (by Thierry Darnaudet) who eventually testified accordingly. Thierry nearly beat him to death. The boy was hospitalized with serious injuries. It was not the first time that Thierry Darnaudet had been accused of child abuse in India. Adriana, an Australian volunteer had caught Thierry five times having sex with young children. He bribed Indian officials with large sums of money to buy the authorities silence. These bribes were paid from APLE donations from Cambodia."

  13.

The lesson to be learned from your abject failure to make anything substantive of this Thierry story after all these years of repeating it to anyone that would listen should really not go unheeded.

      I have not heard this story before,though I have heard other stories along similar lines. And, from the limited amount I know about Hang Vibol, it would seem that there are definitely many questions that need to be asked about this case.

      I do not read Khmer440 (and am, indeed, banned from it) and so try to steer clear from malicious gossip as much as I can.

      Is this snippet of information simply 'malicious gossip' or is it true? If anyone knows, or can enlighten me, please do.

      I was going to delete this comment but decided against it. If there is no truth to it,Thierry Darnaudet and Samleang Siela can deny it.

      QUESTION: Have Thierry Darnaudet and Samleang Siela ever denied this "tired old dubious info has been been repeated somewhere around a bizillion times for years."

      My many attempts to get answers of any kind from Thierry Darnaudet and Samleang Siela have produced none. They, like Scott Neeson and the CCF board refuse, as a matter of principle, to answer questions. This total lack of transparency and accountability enables them to remain small targets. Instead of answering questions on the record, they write anonymously to this (and other) blogs in hopes of discrediting the blog itself and throwing all that is revealed on the blog into doubt. In the case of Scott Neeson and CCF I refer to these people as Team Neeson. They are readily identifiable. They show no interest at all in facts, truth, evidence or the rule of law. They hope, if they repeat the same tired old hackneyed arguments often enough that the cumulative effect will be for readers to think they have some validity.

      I imagine that this works for some readers but not for most.

      I am not sure what you mean by 'cautionary tale', Anonymous 12.20? Some clarification would be helpful.

      Gossip can, I have learned here, serve two functions. On the one hand it can be merely malicious and have no other purpose but to discredit the victim of it. On the other hand, the gossip can contain a germ (or more than a germ) of truth.

      Some months ago 'malicious gossip' from within CCF suggested that Neeson was on his way to Peter, Australia, for a photo opportunity with the Dalai Lama. I did a little research and found out that it was almost certainly true. Then, a week or so later there were the shots of Neeson and the Dalai Lama together.

      Another example. 'Malicious gossip' suggested to me that Neeson's World Housing homes were not being 'gifted' to poor families but 'gifted' to CCF - to be rented to poor families. A little research asking around, and I discovered it to be true.

      One last example.

      One piece of "tired old dubious info has been been repeated somewhere around a bizillion times for years" relating to the death of a young girl whilst in CCF care was eventually brought to my attention. I asked Neeson if there was any truth to it. No reply. I asked the CCF board if there was any truth to it. No reply.

      Just 'malicious gossip', right? SOmeone trying to discredit Neeson and CCF. Maybe.

      I did some more research, along with others, and discovered that the story was true; that a young girl in the care of CCF died as a result of CCF's failure of its duty of care.

      Now, you may well say, "Prove it," and I will respond with, "I can prove it but prefer not to just now." At which point you may well say, "Then it is bullshit." Fair enough. There are good reasons not to reveal all I know and can prove here on this blog at this time.

      ...to be continued...

      Delete
    3. ...continuing...


      As for your reference to my "trying to discredit a reputable person and org like Neeson and CFF" all I can say, if you really believe that Neeson is 'reputable', is ask you just one question:

      "Would a reputable person claim to be 'gifting' homes to poor families in Steung Meanchey when in fact they have been 'gifted' to Scott Neeson's CCF to be rented to these poor families?"

      Please provide a straight answer to this question. I doubt that you will but would be delighted to be surprised.

      This is, of course, just one of many questions that Neeson refuses to answer.

      The follow-up question to this one is:

      "Who owns the land on which the 'gifted' houses have been erected and is so making a profit from renting houses that were 'gifted' by developers in Vancouver?"

      I don't know the answer to this question. Is the land owned by Scott Neeson? By CCF? By a friend of Scott's?

      Whoever can find an answer to this question will reveal just who the major beneficiary of this World Housing scam is?

    4. I am honestly surprised that somebody who has done as much research as you has not heard the story before. I don't think I have ever read on on-going discussion on any site or forum regarding the anti-trafficking issue and arrest of pedo in Cambodia that has not had this posted at some point in the discussion. Until recently there was an anti site (tph?) that was up for years that had this story was central. Google a bit. You'll find it in lots of places.

    ‪ by ‪lolol » Thu Nov 22, 2007 3:03 am
    last month Thierry Daurnaudet was arrested in Calcutta for badly beating a child in his care. This is not the first child in his homes to be beaten and there are serious questions to be asked as to why anyone can set themselves up as an NGO looking after children, Thierry believes he is doing things the Indian way !!! Malik Kartoon was left black and blue and taken to hospital by his sister Rabia where Drs advised her to seek police involvement. As children of the very poor thier voice will not hold the weight that Mr Daurnaudet's will and he is likley to get away with this travesty yet again. He knows he is Guilty.

    ‪http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Citi ... 239881.cms‬

    KOLKATA: A 30-year-old French national, in the city for a global seminar, tried to commit suicide in a five-star hotel on Friday.

    Darnaudet Thierry checked into the hotel on Wednesday evening, two days ahead of the seminar on ‘global humanity’. He put up a ‘Do not disturb’ sign on the door and bolted it. After that, Thierry neither stepped out nor took any call. Initially, none bothered. But when 24 hours passed without any sign of him, the authorities decided to take a look. They knocked on his door and then tried calling him up through the intercom.

    Hotel employees opened the door and found Thierry unconscious on the floor. On the bed was a bottle of wine, strips of sleeping pills and a suicide note in English, said DC (detective department)Ajoy Kumar. "I don’t want to live. My body should be burnt and the ashes thrown into a river," the note said.

    Though Thierry is still in ICU, his condition is stable. Police have informed the French Consulate and asked it to inform Thierry’s relatives in France.

    Thierry Darnaudet tried to commit suicide in Kolkata Hotel. Did he become a victim of his own system ?

  17. Mr Ricketson, you might want to take a look at this:

    Cambodian NGO Aple – The Truth Inside

    Marc Swenson

    The French aid organization APLE (Action Pour Les Enfants) is alleged to have brought hundreds of people to court in Cambodia by manipulating evidence and witnesses ultimately resulting in innocent people going to prison for a long time. Has the APLE founder, Thierry Darnaudet, been funded through donations generated by the abuse and trafficking of children.

    1. This sure makes for interesting reading. Here is a quote that is pertinent to Mr Fletcher's case.

      "On another occasion, Vibol caught Thierry red-handed as he abused the young boy named Pen Dom in the office of “Our Home Orphanage” in Phnom Penh. This brought everything to a head again and Vibol filed more charges against Thierry. But how can there be an investigation when Thierry controls the investigating authority? Between the Ministry of Interior in Cambodia and APLE there is a ‘Memorandum of Understanding’ that allows APLE employees to investigate suspects for the “Anti-Human Trafficking Police” as though APLE is the police. An NGO is operating as the police?
      Apart from the lack of a legal basis for this unofficial policing, what qualifies APLE volunteers to operate in this way? They were, after all, unable to recognize the systematic abuses perpetrated by its own founder."

    The latest news is that Thierry has again attempted suicide in Puri. Can anyone in Cambodia contact APLE and find out what is going on? We get no useful response from Global Humanitaria who is funding the home in Kolkata that Thierry was running. I would be concerned if he is still "working" in Cambodia after these attempts, especially such a high-stress and danger job as chasing pedophiles.

    1. Wow, this is quite an article,.Check this out

      "For two years Vibol was the Country Director of APLE so he knows the structure and the system to the last detail. Perhaps the first time he realised the significance and error was when he accompanied two child witnesses to Australia who were to testify in a trial against the Australian ex-ambassador, John Holloway, who had made himself unpopular by criticising the Cambodian government at the time. Suddenly, he saw himself exposed to child abuse allegations.

      Among 15 selected photos the two boys pointed to the ambassador’s photo. His life was henceforth ruined. On their return flight after the trial in Australia, at which incidentally the children were completely discredited as viable witnesses, the children suddenly declared that they did not know the ambassador after all. They only liked flying to Australia."

      Delete
    2. Bullshit! Holloway's activity with children was well known. In order to cover up his behaviour and not cause a shit storm for the Australian Government, the Embassy threw out stories to mask everything. Please do your research before writing comments that are blatantly incorrect.

      Secondly - its always humorous to read about people whistleblowing or telling the 'truth' when they themselves have just been arrested or accused of criminal behaviour. Its funny how people can start telling all sorts of stores to better their own situation when they are in the shit. Would you believe anything that Hang Vibol said? I certainly wouldn't. If he was so righteous, why wouldn't he come out and say things when he was in the position. I know why, because ehe is saying little worm.

      You've got it all wrong. Hang Vibol accused Thierry Darnaudet of child abuse back in 2012 - a couple of years before his arrest ! So to call him a late coming Whistleblower that only blew the alarm when he was arrested is rediculous.

      Interestingly you claim not to trust anything Hang Vibol, the former APLE Country Director says but apparently believe everything it's suicidal founder Thierry Darnaudet says. If you believe Hang Vibol is a Pedophile you also acknowledge that a former leading Director of APLE is a Pedophile. Who can proof that none of the other people working in or for this Org. is absolutely clean ?

      On the other hand you also seem to know an awful lot about the activities of both APLE and CCF, perhaps a bit too much to make everyone believe your many claims that you are simply a bystander who has nothing to do with the NGO's.

  19. I know next to nothing about the Holloway case. Wasn't that a lon long time ago? Can anyone enlighten me? Am not in a good position to 'Google' just now!

    Needless to say I am curious to know if Holloway's 'guilt' was well known from a legal point of view or if it was 'well known' in the Khmer440 sense?

    I agree that the moment Hang Vibol realized something was amiss he should have reported it and not waited till he found himself in jail before becoming a 'whistle-blower'.

  20. Have now had a chance to 'Google' and remember the Holloway case as taking place during the first year that I came to Cambodia - 1995.

    From what I have been able to gather online Holloway may or may not have been guilty. He was found to be 'not guilty' in an Australian court so how can we ever know.

    This 20 year old case seems not to be of much value or relevance one way or another unless someone has some information that is not on the internet.

  21. Questions for Chad Williams

    Why did the Phnom Penh Post not cover the application for a retrial of David Fletcher ?

    What is the relationship between the Phnom Penh Post and APLE and the Cambodian Children's Fund ?

    You have not investigated the many questions raised about CCF, such as their refusal to hand back children to their parents after they have requested that CCF do so, the separation of siblings that causes great stress, anxiety and harm .
    The gifted houses ? that CCF rents to families .The death of a girl in their care in what appears to be a lack of their duty of care . Their extremely dubious financial operations.

    These are only a few of the questions that have been raised publicly about the CCF .

    Yet you print word for word the CCF press releases , when the question raised above are in the public domain in Cambodia ?

    In my case you still refuse to advise google to delete the post about me ,and make a retraction , even though you and Chris Dawe were given court documents that proved what was printed about me in the PPP were lies and it has ruined my life ...Why Chad ?

    David Fletcher'a and my own case were both initiated by APLE !

    Their is a common denominator here, The PPP , CCF and APLE !

    The FACTS about David Fletcher's case are there for all to see if you want to see them ? yet your paper did not attend on the day of the request for a retrial unlike The Cambodian Daily Why ?

    The questions I have raised here would have any reasonable person coming to the conclusion that their is something wrong at the PPP when aware of the FACTS.

    A basic Tenet of Journalism is to report "Without fear or favour" .

    Chad, one day you will pursue your career outside of Cambodia maybe in the USA ?

    Be assured the questions I have raised here will follow you to your employers , Journalist Blogs and Forums , The American Society of Journalists .

    APLES days are numbered their main donor is under police investigation in Europe !

    and many outside of Cambodia are aware of their criminal activities . the clock is ticking !

      I am not sure if you are the right person to be directing this question at but, if you are not, could you please pass it on to the relevant person?

      I have, on my blog in the past 24 hours, had a comment posted by a man by the name of Liam Miller. He alleges that the Phnom Penh Post published an article about him that was factually incorrect and defamatory; that the Post refused to retract the article.

    2. You seem not to understand,Chad, or simply do not care, that the story you wrote about Liam Miller was factually incorrect:

      Liam Miller’s letter to you, Chad, as editor of the Phnom Penh Post

      "Dear Sir or Madam:

      Regarding the false and defamatory article March 2011 re William Mathieson Miller

      I now send you copies of the Siem Reap Court’s final judgment showing that I was completely exonerated of the charge of sexual harassment. (The editor declined a copy when I visited the office and asked for a retraction.)

      “In fact” I was never charged with “rape or assault” but there was a case of sexual harassment being investigated, (I refer to page six of the investigating judge’s statement that I have sent to you) I was held in detention whilst the case was being investigated. The Cambodian Daily on the same day quoted the same police officer Sun Bungthorng named in your article saying that I was in detention and that it had not yet been decided what the charge would be. (I gave you the editor at the time a copy of this article while in your office). Your article is now shown on a google web search page in Vietnam under my name. I have tried to contact google without success and I understand that they require the originator to make the request to have it removed – the Phnom Penh Post.

      The situation arose because of a dispute with my landlord regarding bills and a rent increase. The landlord had started a relationship with one of the girls (Pon Por aka Thai Duong). In fact she was the only one employed as a housemaid. Please also note that in the judge’s statement Pon Por aka Thai Duong said that the two men who picked her (up at her) office lied to her saying they were taking her home to have a discussion with her family were lawyers employed by the highly discredited NGO APLE Cambodia who were behind the whole investigation.

      I trust that now you are in receipt of the facts you will take immediate steps to have google remove it from all their web search pages…I have never been convicted of any offence and have police clearance certificates to support this."

      I am now in possession of both Mr Miller’s letter to the Phnom Penh Post and the Siem Reap Provincial Court of First Instance ‘Nonsuit Order’ dated March 12th 2011.

      In light of Mr Miller’s having not been charged with the offences the Phnom Penh Post reported (“rape, attempted rape and sexual assault”), will the Post be writing a retraction and an apology for the damage the article has done to Mr Miller’s reputation? And will the Post be requesting that Google remove the inaccurate and defamatory 14th March article published two days after the ‘Nonsuit Order’ of 12th March was handed down?

      Dear Chad

      My previous attempts to communicate with you via the Post’s online ‘contact’ address have failed. My attempts to communicate with you via David Boyle, whose email address I do have, have failed also.

      You will be well aware that there has never been any suggestion, in any police or court document, that William Mathieson Miller raped anyone. The very worst that was alleged was that Mr Miller may have touched a young woman’s hand inadvertently. In any event, all sexual harassment charges against him were found to be false – for reasons outlined by Judge Hok Pov in his summation of the case.

      The Phnom Penh Post’s article has caused enormous damage to Mr Miller’s reputation, his employment prospects and his relationship with those close family members who believe that what the Phnom Penh Post published was true. Given that what was published was demonstrably not true I ask again, on Mr Miller’s behalf, that the Post apologize, issue a retraction and have the offending article removed from the internet such that it cannot be found through Google search.

      James

      NEVER ABSOLUTELY I NOT !

      I was charged! with sexual harassment .. Never Rape ..as per the court documents ..the result was that when the Prosecutor and the Investigative Judge, after 4 months, finally interviewed / interrogated the girls for the first time.. before that all they had were statements , it became clear that as I said in my post 108 that the original statements had been obtained illegally by APLE and the local police , the charges were dropped ! it never went to trial !

      I have never been charged or convicted of any other offense .
      I have Australian Federal Police clearance post the time I was charged .

      Chad Williams was sent the court documents (you have a copy ) proving that the charges were dropped , I still have the DHL receipts , received and signed for by a member of the PPP staff !

      Ask him would he like to see the DHL receipts ?
      and why he says I was convicted what information does he have to support that ( I think APLE told him that ) also why he ignored the proof, Court Documents sent to him ..and why he ignored the mail sent to by both you and myself asking him to contact google as he had proof that I was not guilty ?

      Regards

      We,, there you have it, Chad - for about the fourth or fifth time. Liam Miller was never charged, let alone convicted. You know this from the court documents and yet the Phnom Penh Post refuses to apologise, retract or remove the factually incorrect article from the internet.

WHILST YOU HAVE NO QUALMS ABOUT PUBLISHING WHATEVER PRESS RELEASE SCOTT NEESON GIVES YOU, PRETTY MUCH WORD FOR WORD, YOU REFUSE TO SEE ANY STORY WORTHY OF PUBLICATION IN THE CASE OF A MAN WHO HAS SPENT FIVE YEARS IN JAIL WITHOUT HAVING BEEN TRIED AT ALL IN A COURT OPERATING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CAMBODIAN CODE OF CRIMINAL PROCEDURE.

    IF YOU ARE TRUE TOFOR, CHAD, YOU WILL IGNORE BOTH MR MILLER AND MYSELF; REFUSE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. IN DOING SO YOU BRING THE PHNOM PENH POST INTO DISREPUTE.

    If another story existed that said I was convicted ( it does not I have never been convicted of anything ) please tell me when the story was published? what was I convicted of and the general content of the story .. victim /victims names? Chad your response is incredible , you have not provided one fact one credible piece of evidence against me , when asked to do so you respond by making even more damaging allegations . Chad what is your motivation ? I have not said one thing in my bogs here that could not be supported by facts
    ..What is your motivation in perpetrating these lies ?, many of us would like to know . Liam Miller
