00:00Samantala, kaunay po ng mga sinasabing ebidensyang hawak ng kampo ni Engineer Bryce Hernandez
00:05at mga dagdag na pangalan ng politiko na ngurakot-umanos sa mga flood control project.
00:11Usapin na po natin ang Legal Counsel ni dating DPWH Mulacan 1st District Assistant Engineer Bryce Hernandez.
00:18Si Atty. Fortune po ang ating makakausap. Magandang umaga po sa inyo, Atty. Fortune.
00:23Magandang umaga, Connie.
00:25Ano po ang unang reaction po dito sa freeze order ng DPWH assets po ng inyong kliyente?
00:34Well, that's part of the process.
00:36As soon as naging abogado kami ni Bryce Hernandez, we had already warned him about this possibility.
00:44So, sa akin po, anything that will help the government to try to uncover yung mess
00:50and in order to preserve yung pong mga nanakaw, kung ano, ay dapat po nagkawin po ng gobyerno.
00:58So, sa akin po, that's part of the process and I actually don't have any negative reactions towards it.
01:05At contento naman po kayo doon sa tinatakbo ng paglilitis doon po sa Senado, no?
01:11Well, ito nga, Connie, wala ako nung bandang hapon po, yung testimonies po ni Bryce.
01:18You will notice that prior to this week, hindi po ako nagsasalita for him.
01:24And the reason for that was that I already was very clear, no?
01:27Unless and until magsasabi ka ng the whole truth and nothing but the truth, I cannot speak for you.
01:33Alam po ng mga nakararami yan na hindi ako magpapagamit as counsel to cover up for deception, for trying to twist the truth.
01:43Hindi ako papayag, no?
01:44I have higher standards as a lawyer than that.
01:49So, pero, nag-umpisa po yung change of heart ko na din nung number one, nag-return siya nung kanyang sasakyan sa ICI, no?
01:57And my understanding is that there are now moves to try to also to turn over yung mga other vehicles niya.
02:04And then, nadinig ko na po ito ngayon, especially yung kahapon.
02:07Kasi prior to that, ang concentration lang ng law office namin was with regard doon sa testimony niya doon sa flood flood control.
02:15And yesterday, he started talking about yung mga other anomalies mismo doon sa other projects, no?
02:22Yung mga infrastructure, road building, yung mga tulay, yung mga ganito, yung sa hospital, and et cetera, with regard doon sa nasasakupan ng Bulacan 1st District.
02:31Okay.
02:31So, alam mo, ang gaan-gaan ng loob ko ngayon para kay Bryce, sa totoo lang.
02:36Because I am so happy that there is somebody now who has already started the ball rolling and started now speaking about the anomalies in the DPWH, no?
02:46And I am so hopeful na itong umpisa ng ginawa ni Bryce will also embolden other district engineers to speak out about yung mga anomalies na nangyayari doon sa kanilang mga distrito.
02:59Are you still hoping na kayo ho ng inyong kliyente ay, kumbaga si Bryce Hernandez po ay mapabilang po doon sa Witness Protection Program po ng ating gobyerno?
03:10Dahil ang sabi niya nga ho ay marami pang laman yung kanya pong computer.
03:14Inyong hong makukumpirma ho ba itong mga sinasabi po na patungkol po sa iba pang mga pangalan na maaring madawit pa dito?
03:21Well, you know, one of the jobs of counsel is to find out the truth, yung lahat na lalaman ng kliyente.
03:29And marami pong mga sinabi sa amin si Bryce na, of course, hindi po kami at liberty to say at this particular time.
03:38It has to come from him.
03:39Pero, sure ako na meron pong mga personalidad na hindi pa nababanggit.
03:46And that's why we are hoping na when Bryce submits his akidavit, it can be favorably considered by the DOJ as the starting point for an investigation
03:58which will lead to the prosecution of the people na dapat napanagutin para dito sa mga baha na nangyayari dito sa Central Luzon as well as elsewhere.
04:09Okay, naisuko niyo na po yung computer sa ICI at hindi po sa Senado.
04:12Yun po yung initial na nabanggit niyo po sa akin nung ating pong huling interview.
04:20Katunayan, Connie, was that nung last interview ko po sa inyo, yun po yung plano.
04:27Pinagaagawan po kasi itong computer po na ito dahil, pa posible, marami po talagang nilalaman ito.
04:34But there are also other documents, mga hard documents na turnover na sa Senado.
04:39Now, yesterday, after yung pong sudden admission ngayon ni Engineer Alcantara which basically confirmed and validated everything na sinabi ni Bryce,
04:50eh nagdesisyon na rin si Bryce na pumasok na rin at mag-apply na rin for witness protection ng DOJ and to become a state witness.
04:58So, nagdesisyon na din po siya na today po, ito pong desktop computer, mawalang galang po sa ICI po,
05:07ay ibibigay po ni Bryce doon po sa DOJ as a show of sincerity po doon sa kant na meron talaga siyang cooperation
05:16in order to be qualified to enter the witness protection program.
05:21I see. At ito pong sinasabi na pagpapakita siyempre ng kanyang goodwill, nauna ho siya, nagbigay na ng kanyang luxury vehicle.
05:31Ngayong araw, sabi meron pa rin siyang itinurn over ng mga sasakyan at ilan ho ba ang natitira pang sasakyan ng iyong kliyente na itinurn over?
05:38I'll be very honest with you, napapag-usapan lang namin kasi, was yung Ferrari at saka yung Lamborghini.
05:47Dapat last week pa yung Lamborghini na yan, naibigay na, kaya lang nawawala yung susi.
05:51So, but definitely, right now ngayon, actually, we made an offer to the DOJ na ibibigay namin yung Lamborghini.
05:58Pero sabi nga nun, ibibigay na lang daw sa ICI.
06:01So, we are still in the process of turning over itong mga sasakyan na ito.
06:07Again, just to show Bryce's willingness to cooperate in the government's investigations,
06:14whether it's with the DOJ, with the Senate, with ICI.
06:19And yung kanyang pagsoole ay bahagi na rin yung kanyang pagsisisi doon sa kanyang ginawa at pinagbabayaran niya ito.
06:29Alright, marami pong salamat sa inyong oras at mga update na yan sa amin dito sa Balitang Hali.
06:36Thank you, Connie, and good noon to everybody.
06:38Marami salamat. Yan po naman si Attorney Raymond Fortu.
