Remember when that American kid got sentenced to being whipped with a cane in Singapore?

May 19, 2011

It was 1994, according to the internet. Michael Fay. He got busted for theft and vandalism while he was over there, and caning – being beaten with a bamboo cane – is a regular punishment in their legal system.

The general consensus among people I knew at the time was: well, you’re gonna break the law in another country, you’re gonna hafta live with their punishments.

Welcome to America, Dominique Strauss-Kahn. Hope you enjoy your stay.
