A repeat drug trafficker who cut off his GPS monitor and fled the region after missing court has been sentenced to four years in prison following a string of cocaine trafficking arrests in Huntsville and across the Muskoka area.
Aloundeth Khamvong has been sentenced to four years in prison after pleading guilty in a Bracebridge court to multiple drug trafficking and related offences stemming from a series of incidents in 2023 and 2024.
Court heard Khamvong, 39, pleaded guilty to three counts of possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, along with possession of stolen property over $5,000, mischief for damaging a GPS monitoring device, and several breaches of court orders.
The court heard that in September 2023, Ontario Provincial Police officers in Huntsville responded to reports of a man threatening people with a switchblade outside a downtown establishment. Khamvong was later located at a nearby hotel, where officers found seven packets of cocaine weighing a total of 22.32 grams.
In January 2024, police again began investigating Khamvong for suspected drug trafficking. On Feb. 28, 2024, he was arrested in Huntsville while allegedly in possession of 14.9 grams of cocaine, approximately $5,000 in cash, an imitation Glock handgun, a debt list, and a digital scale.
Court also heard that in November 2024, authorities learned Khamvong was wanted by Canada Border Services Agency on an immigration warrant. Officers attended his residence on Nov. 21 to execute the warrant and located cocaine, a debt list, scales, and cannabis. He was taken into custody by CBSA and later released.
Police returned to the residence on Nov. 27, 2024, where they allegedly located 4.7 grams of cocaine and 18 grams of crack cocaine.
Following his release on conditions that included GPS monitoring, Khamvong failed to attend court and cut off his monitoring device. He was eventually located and arrested in Blind River in December 2025.
The court heard Khamvong had previously been convicted of drug trafficking and sentenced to four years in prison.
During sentencing, the justice remarked that “since coming to this country, he has engaged in a consistent life of crime.”
Khamvong received a 48-month jail sentence for the offences.

Is he a citizen? If not then why is he not being deported.?
Most immigrants to Canada are good, honest people. This one is not and yet we keep him here. This is a case that our MP should bring up in parliament to show the Liberal government how weak Canada is on crime.
Why wouldn’t he be a repeat offender,he just gets a slap on the wrist,for destroying young people’s lives.
A serial felon gets 4 years…….Ludicrous. Why did Border Services want him ? We sure as heck don’t want him 4 years from now .
The amount of money spent on this man since he came to Canada is astronomical. Now the taxpayer has to foot the bill for 4 years of incarceration after which they will release him back into society to repeat his previous criminal acts. Save us all a great deal of time and money and buy him a one way ticket back to whatever country he came from and be done with it. I’m tired of my taxes being spent on this type of thing. Enough is enough!
