Jollygoodfellow Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 I could not find the topic on this which I know was posted before so I have to start this new one. Some might recall last year an American cameraman was arrested on alleged child sex charges but hung himself in Cebu detention the same day. Story HERE Anyway his sister does not believe he hung himself and is hiring investigators but the interesting facts are that he was found hung by his own belt which his sister says he never wore a belt in his life. A second autopsy ordered showed bruising on his body which says was inflicted around 4 hours prior to his death. Also marks on his neck are inconsistent from hanging according to the report so I hope they find out how, who and why this guy was killed more so as it appears he was innocent in the first place with no evidence found. This is a video of the deceased sisters news report, https://mobile.reuters.com/video/2018/04/05/an-american-death-in-the-philippines-rai?videoId=415085767&videoChannel=1 It is hard to load so thats why I tried to explain the case above.

There would be a huge political out cry and congressional investigations. Because they care? Not in my opinion, but because of the economic importance of the OFW's and the photo opportunities with grieving families. The attitude of us Yanks is more, "you buy your ticket, you take your chances" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerald Glatt Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 If the sister is looking for revenge I understand it can be had for 5=10k peso If the brother is innocent a pity If not still sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is looking for answers as to why he died since things do not add up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulB Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 Why doesn't she just give the money to the children he abused? Nobody seems to be talking about them. Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul I think you need to find the original story. There was no evidence found. No complaints, no nothing so it appears the guy was just helping out but we will never know. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who came forward to accuse this guy? I don't know many sisters who would go to this length to clear their brother's name if the sister thought he might have actually done something like that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know many sisters who would go to this length to clear their brother's name if the sister thought he might have actually done something like that. The original story said there was an 8 year old girl in the house when he was arrested and neighbors said he would lure girls into the house with toys. Seems like there would be more to it after that, but since he was dead, no need to pursue??? The second autopsy revealed more, but to me it does not seem unexpected that he was mistreated in jail before he died. We will never know for sure. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
