Richard was not a nice person


He pretty much assisted in the killings of the 4 from the mainland. Plus he kills Cristo at the end, euthanizing him.

He also steals Francois from her boyfriend, then cheats on her with Sal and cheats with Sal on her boyfriend.

Then he goes home and enjoys himself at an internet cafe apparently with no guilt.

Richard was a young traveler who meant well.

The 4 backpackers were killed because they got ahold of a copy of the map. They interrupted the farmer's illicit harvest. Richard tried to save the young woman but was unable to do so. He meant harm to no one.

"Then he goes home and enjoys himself at an internet cafe apparently with no guilt."

Why should he feel guilty? There was no reason for him to feel guilty.
