00:00An American author is complaining about the fact that his social media pages are flooded with messages and comments
00:06from supporters and critics of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:11Nicholas Kaufman, the former president's lead defense counsel, was mistaken
00:16because of his name, even though the spelling of his last name is different.
00:21There are two letter N's in the last name of the author, while only one is in the last name of Duterte's lawyer.
00:27In an interview with GMA Integrated News, the author, Kaufman,
00:32first sent a message of good luck to the pro-Duterte supporters.
00:36Now, he is answering the messages of the contra-Duterte supporters.
00:42Because of that, Kaufman posted twice to say that he is not Duterte's lawyer and to stop messaging him.
00:51Believe it or not, there are people who commented that they thought I was lying.
00:55They feel that Nicholas Kaufman from the ICC has a side gig as a writer of horror and thrillers in New York City,
01:06which is very strange.
01:07One commenter was like, oh, okay, I understand that you're not the lawyer.
01:12Can you please help bring Duterte home anyway?
01:16Don't miss the news you need to know.
