Cam asked to submit Leila’s alleged sex video to CA

Manila, Philippines --- A member of the Commission on Appointments (CA) asked yesterday whistleblower Sandra Cam to turn over copies of an alleged sex video of Justice Secretary Leila de Lima to the bicameral body panel if she really has them.

But Isabela Rep. Rodolfo “Rodito” Albano III, the representative of the House minority in the CA, warned Cam, president of the Whistleblowers Association of the Philippines, about legal consequences if she is only “bluffing” about the sex tape.

Albano said Cam could submit the sex video tomorrow when the CA is expected to decide on De Lima’s confirmation as justice secretary.

Don’t do it, Manny

When I first learned about Manny Pacquiao’s announcement that he had made a deal with new PBA expansion team KIA Motors to be its “playing” coach, I thought it was a spoof from April Fools’ Day. Except that I read it from the Washington Post on May 9, a day after he made such an announcement. Actually, he had already hinted about this move a few days after his victory over erstwhile-undefeated American boxer Timothy Bradley on April 12.

I thought he made a huge mistake when he ran for Congress. It took a lot of his focus away from what made him a sports icon. But okay, I suppose he is doing a great job of helping the people of Sarangani Province, although it did affect his boxing career somehow.

But after pursuing careers as politician, TV host, recording artist and pastor among others, this new ambition of his is just absolutely ridiculous.

For him to play in the PBA is surely preposterous. For him to coach in the PBA is just as ludicrous. And for him to do both? Outrageous!

Deniece Cornejo Surrenders

(Update No. 6—8:50 a.m., Tuesday, May 6) Deniece Cornejo ended her brief stint as a fugitive on Monday afternoon, May 5, as she surrendered to Philippine National Police Director-General Alan L. Purisima. The model reportedly showed up at Camp Crame at around 4 p.m. and proceeded to Purisima's office.

Cornejo was said to be accompanied by her granduncle, Rod, whose statement had been read on Buzz ng Bayan on Sunday, May 4. It was he who had appealed to her to surrender.

After the brief stopover at Purisima's office, Cornejo was then transported via a coaster to the PNP-Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) building, where she was processed under the Women and Children Protection Desk.
