LOOK: Cop who owned gun used in Tacloban school shooting faces Senate — ANC

[0:00] I'm going to talk to the staff sergeant paciencia, ma'am, before I call on Sen Rafi for his question. [0:09] So, paano po nakuha, pamangkin niyo ba, tama ba, yung isang shooter? [0:15] Yes, Madam Chair. Nash is my nephew. [0:18] Is your nephew. [0:19] So, paano po nakuha ni Elias Nash yung baril niyo, yung Glock 17, na nakalagay, nasa kwarto niyo, pero nakalagay sa isang plastic container? [0:35] Nash unlawfully entered my own house. It's not a room po, it's my own house. [0:42] So, house? [0:43] Yes, po. He forcibly damaged my locker. It was locked. And my house was locked as well, po, ma'am. [0:57] Pero yung locker ay plastic locker? [0:59] Plastic locker. And my firearm was inside a gun box. The locker was as well locked, po. [1:06] And I'm only the one who had possession of the keys to my house, ma'am. [1:12] So, nakapasok siya sa bahay kahit wala siyang susi. Yung plastic locker, standard ba na pang safekeep yun ng firearm? Plastic locker, hindi mas matibay na locker? [1:25] Yung standard po is yung safety vault. But it was in good faith, ma'am, that I believe it was safe at that time, since I'm only the one staying in my own house. [1:50] So, standard po pala, Sergeant Paciencia, na safety vault, hindi lang plastic locker. [1:59] I appreciate good faith, po, talaga. But, lalo na sa ating mga nagtatrabaho sa gobyerno, I think we need to observe the standards para nga po ma-anticipate at maiwasan yung mga worst case scenario tulad po nito. [2:17] And lastly, before I turn over to Senator Rafi at this point for his follow-up question, paano po nabuksan ni Elias Nash yung gun box? [2:28] Di ba, ang gun box ba, ano bang material nun? Plastic din lang po ba o bakal po? [2:35] It was plastic din po, ma'am. [2:38] Standard po ba na yung gun box ay plastic lamang? [2:42] Yes, ma'am. [2:43] Okay. So, standard po yung plastic na gun box, but standard din na kung nasa plastic na gun box ang isang barel, andun siya sa isang safety vault. [2:54] Tama po. [2:55] Salamat, Sergeant Paciencia. [2:57] So, at this point, Senator Rafi? [2:59] Thank you, Madam Chair. [3:01] Staff Sergeant Paciencia, tanong ko lang, paano nalaman nung inyong pamangkin na yung barel ninyo ay doon niya makukuha doon sa sabi mong naka-plastic na lalagyan? [3:12] Sen, Rafi, I have only one locker in my room, and siguro naghanap siya kung saan ko pwede mataguan. Yun lang po ang area na may lock po. [3:37] Now, balita na isinasama mo raw ata sa target shooting sa firing range, yung pamangkin mo? [3:44] Sen, I only bring him once. [3:51] You brought him just once? [3:52] Just once. [3:53] Bakit? Anong reason? Ba't nyo siya tinala sa firing range para turuan na mag-firing? Anong dahilan? [4:01] He usually told me that he wanted to be a police officer like me. [4:09] He looked up on me. Yun po. He wanted to be a police officer, and he was asking if I could bring him sa firing range. [4:25] Pero alam nyo po na hindi dapat dahil siya po ay minor, he's not supposed to be inside a firing range. [4:39] Sergeant, pakisagot sa tanong ni Sen. Rafi. [4:43] Based, wala po akong, I have no personal knowledge na may prohibition po. [4:57] Staff Sergeant, excuse me Sen. Rafi, nanong pa po kayo kanina, [5:02] at kuyo po ay kawani ng Philippine National Police, ang pangunahing law enforcement institution ng ating bansa. [5:12] Pakisagot ng makatotohanan sa tanong ni Sen. Rafi. [5:34] Hindi nyo ba alam na hindi dapat makakapasok sa firing range ang isang minor de edad? [5:40] Hindi, hindi po. [5:49] That's amazing, Sen. Rafi. Any more questions for this resource person? [5:52] Follow up po, Sergeant. Tama po ba na kayo yung tumatayong magulang ni Elias Nash? [5:59] Madam Chair, hindi po ako ang tumatayong magulang ni Nash. [6:06] I am his aunt, pero may parents po si Nash, and his father is my brother. [6:14] Ang supervision ko po ko ay Nash are more on support and sa financial na aspect po. [6:21] So may ilang parental duties na kayo ang tumutupad para kay Elias Nash? [6:29] In cases po na wala po talaga ang parents niya because they are members of 4Ps, wala po silang trabaho. [6:40] And naaawa naman po ako sa bata, lalo na kapag kumihingi na po ng pangbili ng ulam, gatas, kahit po sa education nila. [6:51] Yun po yung support ko kay Nash. [6:54] Pero si Nash po ba ay doon nakatira sa bahay ng kanyang magulang or siya po ay doon sa inyong bahay? [7:02] Yes po, nakatira po siya sa kanyang mga magulang. Ako lang po ang nakatira sa sarili ko pong bahay. [7:09] And lastly po at this point, kayo po, meron po ba kayong insight kung bakit ganyan ang ginawa ni Elias Nash nung araw niyan? [7:17] May mga indications po ba? [7:19] Kasi sabi niyo kanina, kayo rin po ay nag-a-advise kay Elias Nash. [7:24] So meron ba kayong napansin na parang maaring sabihin ngayon in hindsight, papunta dito sa ginawa niya? [7:31] Yung napapansin ko po kay Nash is masyadong haba ang oras niya sa cellphone. [7:43] He is introvert more or most of the time hindi siya nakikipag-usap. [7:52] Gusto lang niyang mapag-isa. [7:56] He is always on his cellphone, Madam Chair. [8:02] So iba po dun sa dating pagkakilala ni Jerick na kapatid ni Miss Janica na sinabi nila kanina na ang dating pagkakilala nila kay Elias Nash ay masayahin, palabiro, kaibigan pa nga niya, kaklase pa niya. [8:19] Pero kayo ever since, ang pagkakilala niyo po kay Elias Nash ay itong introvert at iba pa? [8:24] Yun po, before Nash was a different kid. [8:29] Nung siguro nag-pu-puberty na po siya, doon siya nag-start na magkaroon ng sarili niyang mundo. [8:39] Alright, salamat Sergeant Paciencia.
