Canada police arrested suspected paedophile wanted in Thailand [and Cambodia]

Police in Canada have arrested Orville Frank Mader whom Thai police have issued warrants for allegedly sexually abusing Thai young boys.

Mader was arrested last Thursday as he arrived at Vancouver International Airport from Thailand. He was believed to have fled Thailand to his home country after Thai police issued arrest warrants for him.

He was accused of paying money to an eight-year-old boy for oral sex. Police believed that Mader abused at least three other boys.

Canadian media reported that Mader allegedly stayed in the same hotel as Christopher Paul Neil, 34, another Canadian who was arrested in Thailand a few weeks ago following a worldwide manhunt on the same charges.

The Thai police warrant for Mader's arrest issued early this week was accompanied by photos of Mader taken by security cameras at the Ben Mansions Hotel in Pattaya.

According to Thai police, Neil has also checked into the Ben Mansions two days before his arrest in Nakhon Ratchasima.

Following the arrest of Mader, police want him returned to Thailand to face charges of sexually abusing young boys.

Media in Canada reported that Mader appeared briefly in a provincial court and was ordered to remain in custody until another court hearing on November 8.

He was detained under a Canadian law that allows the courts to restrict the movements of people believed to be a threat to children under the age of 14, even if no criminal charges have been filed.

It is illegal for Canadians to go to other countries for the purpose of having sex with children. The "sex tourism" law has rarely been used and its constitutionality has never been tested in the courts.

Mader is also wanted in Cambodia, where he was found guilty in 2004 of molesting two boys under the age of 13. He was sentenced in absentia to 15 years in jail.

It looks like the Canadian is on the right track by having law against having sex with children abroad and in Candada (I hope), but now it's time to use it. Otherwise, it's just a Hollywood showcase.

Furthermore, Canadian must stop trying to hide pedophiles and allowed them to continue to pray on children everywhere. There is nothing wrong with disclosing the truth to the world that a person is a pedophile by stamping their passport, driver liscence, home owner certificate, college degree ... to help people avoid pedophiles.

Oh, another idea that will help us out a lot is to tattoo the the pedophiles' forehead with the word "pedophile", and please use the "glow in the dark" color so that we can see where they are during the night.
