But then, in January of this year, a Chinese-Cambodian kingpin named Chen Ze was extradited back to China following a criminal indictment in the U.S.
The indictment accused Chen of operating forced labor scam compounds in Cambodia.
He was arrested in Cambodia, put on a plane with a bag over his head.
Chen Tzu operated one of the biggest conglomerates in Cambodia and was allegedly using that as a front for his scam operations.
But he was also an advisor to the Cambodian prime minister.
Everyone believed he was untouchable.
When he went down, scam bosses everywhere started panicking.
So Shuai was moved again.
This time to a compound called Park 8.
But this time, Schwab and the other traffic migrants, they knew what was going on.
They saw it on social media, on their phones.
They knew their bosses were in a vulnerable place.
And so in late January, roughly two weeks after Schwab arrived in Park 8, a number of workers started to take things into their own hands.
They revolted.
Schwab says a crowd of people surrounded the Chinese bosses' accommodations.
Some had sticks and stones.
The bosses, they were cornered.
And they gave workers a choice.
You can leave, or you can come with us to the next scam compound.
But if you leave, you'll be out there on your own, on the streets of Cambodia, in a country now hostile to the work that you were brought here to do.
