A Los Angeles man was arrested and charged with “renting” a 14-year-old girl in Cambodia was convicted and sentenced to 104 months in federal prison.
Michael Dodd was ordered to by the court to pay restitution of $9,500 and will be saddled with 10 years of supervised release.
A clearly angry U.S. District Judge John Walter said this was “one of the most disgusting cases that have come before this court.”
The pedophile, Dodd is a 61-year-old English teacher who traveled to Cambodia to have sex with a teenage girl that he “rented” from her poor family for approximately $100 a month. Dodd plead guilty in September to having sex with a minor.
The young Cambodian agreed to a plea agreement to save the family from traveling to Los Angeles to testify. The judge wanted a jury trial and said he would have given the pedophile life in prison.
