ONLY THE HEROIN OWNER WOULD WANT CACAYAN DEAD!

The claim of Tita Cacayan that she has been receiving death threats only boosts suspicions of her possible involvement in the heroin found in the suitcase of her executed recruit Sally Ordinario Villanueva.

For the simple reason that NOBODY would want her dead EXCEPT THE OWNER of the heroin. WHO ELSE would want her to keep quiet? Who else would be at risk from anything she might possibly say?

Consider this: Cacayan dId not ask for protective custody by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) when she first surfaced to deny that she had stuffed the heroin in Sally’s suitcase.

Neither did she complain of death threats then. She even went into hiding after Sally was executed in China. But now that she’s the only one being crucified in public for Sally’s death, suddenly she’s out in the open and her life is in danger.

If indeed Cacayan’s life is in danger, I will immediately rule out the Ordinarios or the Villanuevas as suspects. Even the people who  have sued Cacayan of illegal recruitment.

Simply because they DON’T HAVE THE MONEY for it.

We all saw on television how poor the Ordinarios and the Villanuevas are during the live telecasts on the day of Sally’s execution. And remember, Sally agreed to go to China for the measly P25,000 a month promised by Cacayan as she had declared in her sworn statement before she died.  

Victims of illegal recruitment, 99 percent of whom are from the poor, DON’T WANT the culprit dead. They want THEIR MONEY back and they know they can’t get if the illegal recruiter is dead.

And hired killers don’t settle for just P100 or P1,000 as professional fee. Hired killers work only for people with money.

So who else would want Cacayan dead and can afford it?

We have laws that are specifically meant to protect children from harmful TV content and from being exploited. There's a difference between clean fun and humor and crass exploitation of a child who was obviously forced to do things against his will on national TV. Yeah let's not single out Revillame because we should also castigate the parents who gave their consent. Revillame should be banned from having minors in his show. Banning Revillame from TV would not be a bad idea.

Nice point Sir...we have to be consistent and apply the rules uniformly...Let us not single out “Wiling Willie.”

Just read your article, It’s sad that this happens to us.

Tama lang, Kuya Boyet! Ginagamit lang kasi ng iba ang isyu para sumikat! Preoccupied kasi sila sa inis at galit nila sa show kaya nagiging bias sila.

JOY URBI of Hong Kong willie

You have a point, sir. Well said, written and explained.

The point about Willie is child abuse. You're examples of other shows are not similar because the contestants were ADULTS.  I totally agree with you that our television shows are sometimes demeaning to the Filipino culture and heritage. ABS-CBN, TV-5, GMA, etc. are giving the Filipinos the false sense of values.

Laging naka-focus kay Willie kasi top ang program nya. Ba’t  di na lang gumawa ng maayos na program ang DSWD? Allowed ng parents ng bata yong pag dance di ba? At for me,  ang saya lang naman panoorin kasi magaling 30
