Description
STRANGELAND from audiochuck is an investigative series that examines cases in immigrant neighborhoods.
Season 3: The Killing Fields of L.A. is hosted by Ben Adair and Mayly Tao.
In 1996, a Cambodian refugee was gunned down in an alley in L.A.’s Chinatown. But this wasn’t a typical murder. The victim was Haing Ngor, an Oscar-winning actor and humanitarian. Many Cambodians believe Ngor was assassinated over his role in The Killing Fields – a film that depicted the Khmer Rouge’s reign of terror. Three teenage gang members were convicted and sentenced to decades in prison for murder. Yet to this day, the Cambodian community remains unconvinced of the boys’ guilt. Because the thousands of dollars in cash found on Ngor didn’t square with the LAPD’s story, and multiple witnesses said investigators coerced their testimony. In this season of Strangeland, journalist Ben Adair and Cambodian-American podcaster Mayly Tao piece through Haing Ngor’s journey from genocide survivor to Hollywood star to murder victim — and re-investigate the LAPD’s case to find out if justice was lost in translation.
Strangeland is produced by Western Sound.

If nobody questioned any of the neighbors or anything like that then everybody in that entire department should have been fired immediately.

ugh the man's voice is a big no for me
Wait a second, how is it that she said the wife was still bleeding from the neck when she saw her in the room? How could that be if the autopsy says they died around 3:30 or 4:30? That's hours before the husband got home. They would've bled out in 2 minutes. AND WHERE'S ALL THE BLOOD?
There it is, ladies and gentlemen. Marriage is a business, and it just doesn't happen there it happens everywhere, just in a different form. Why do you think you need a marriage license ( business license).
They're not putting on their investigative hats. Why do they think the killer had to put the gloves on? Why couldn't they just take the gloves. Was the partial glove already on the tape? Where did the tape come from ? Did they find a roll of tape at the crime scene or at Cho's house? And if this was a premeditated murder like they say, why would the killer forget to bring gloves?
so wait a second. Did they ever find duct tape at cho's house? Did they even find a box of gloves at his house? What exactly did they find at his house that links him to the murder besides his DNA? Anyone could've put his DNA there. What about the plam print on the tape that doesn't match cho's.
If I stole something in a store and I put it in someone else's pocket, does that mean that person is a thief ? Did they commit the crime, or was it me?
why didn't they go look at the parking spot for themselves.
How much love he gave and received...I am crying at work. he obviously learned how to love from his mother.
😎😎cool
not enough evidence to convict...........
here's the DNA evidence explained: the murderer pulled into his parking space knowing what he was going to do, sees gloves sticking out of/hanging over a box in the parking space next to him and thinks "oh yeah I should use gloves" so he takes them and uses them - maybe 2 pairs and layers them so the gloves fragments that stay behind don't have his DNA on them. the end.
Listening to these cops is infuriating.
you guys are killing me. I just spent the last 30 minutes yelling at my phone in my car. what do you and the defense attorney mean you can't explain the DNA?!! Didn't you say a couple times in the first episode or 2 that Robin Cjo's parking spot was NEXT TO the victim's??? As soon as I (thought I) heard that I was like "Oh it was probably the husband."
