Women 'tried to pimp' 11-year-old

Police on Wednesday arrested two women and charged them with human trafficking and attempting to pimp an 11-year-old Cambodian girl at Soi Cowboy, one of Bangkok's most popular nightspot areas for foreigners.

    The denial midst those who indulge in the sex for sale here is breathtaking. 'No, not me, I only pay a girl/boy of over 18 to have 'sex' with me'. How are these pedophiles introduced to these children? This particular woman was the Swede's translator? Don't make me laugh. Translator in bar girl English no doubt. Hardly likely he tripped up to some professional outfit to employ someone to translate 'I want sex with a very young child' is it. They get their 'under the counter' goods from the same outlets as the rest of the prolific sex industry here.

    It is good that his pedophile and the pimps got arrests. Hopefully they will go to jail and stay in jail.
    As a regular Soi Cowboy visitor I like to add the following: I am sure that most of the foreigners who go there have absolutely no interested in pre-teen boys or girls. I go there since more than a decade and nobody ever offered an 11 year old to me. Having fun with some “adult” girls is one thing but pedophiles are something very different and they are considered scum –also in the eyes of regular lady bar visitors.

    Why is it that the 'jokers' called police can extract incredible proof and confessions within hours and then on the other hand get not so much as a crumb of evidence when no one of importance is involved? Hey Boys In Brown, sodium Pentathol getting expensive??? Thailand Police is an oxymoron!
