HONOLULU — A Hawaii man accused of having illicit sex with a 12-year-old girl in Cambodia is being held without bond in Honolulu pending a detention hearing.
Federal prosecutors say Richard David Mitchell of Kamuela, Hawaii, was arrested by police in Cambodia in August 2008. He remained in custody until he was returned to the U.S. on Saturday, when he was arrested at Honolulu International Airport.
U.S. Attorney Edward Kubo said Tuesday that the prosecution of the 61-year-old Mitchell is part of stepped up efforts to identify and prosecute "sex tourists" who travel to Cambodia to engage in sex acts with children.
According to court documents, witnesses reported seeing Mitchell engaging in curbside sex acts with the girl in August of last year.

Yes you are right those stupid white people do come here for sex. But its the Khmer men who sell them! Near Psar Soriya the men are there calling customers to have sex with young girls. The stupid white men are highlighted in the media but the real people involved in human trafficking are the Khmer men!
Congratulation to you motherfucker, now you can spend your fucking time in jail!
