The release of Jalosjos, despite the two life terms, and the virtual release of Smith, despite the conviction, show the state of the justice system under the Arroyo government and the character of this administration.

Correct me if I’m wrong but most other rape victims who successfully sent their rapists to jail do not enter into a compromise with the convict to overturn the conviction. Because of Smith’s conviction, Nicole got her dignity back. And I’m still trying to understand why she had to lose it so quickly again.

Reading and rereading Nicole’s it, I am convinced that, more than anything else, it was meant to depict Smith in a benign light, that he was not the monster that this case has made him out to be.

CRIME “I expect many sectors to question my motives in executing this statement more than three years after the incident. However, as I practically grew up interacting with American servicemen in Zamboanga City who treated me and my family very well, and thinking over and over again how I may have conducted myself at the Neptune Club, I cant help but entertain doubts on whether the sequence of events in Subic last November of 2005 really occurred the way the court found them to have happened.”
