10 inconsistencies in the Vhong Navarro scandal that we’d like to resolve

1. Is Vhong Navarro a rapist?
Vhong Navarro: Hindi po ako rapist!
Cedric Lee: 6-7 other women are planning to come forward against Vhong

2. On violating Vhong’s private parts
Vhong:
 Binaboy nila ang private part ko
Cedric: We did not take videos of Vhong Navarro’s private parts

3. Just a case of booty call gone wrong?
Vhong:
 Pauwi ako nag-text siya. Sabi niya, ‘Bad boy ka.’ Sa akin, ano ang ibig sabihin ng bad boy ka? Dahil ba hindi ko tinuloy na may mangyari? Hindi ko alam. Kaya ang sagot ko po, ‘I’m sorry bawi ako.’
Cedric: He clearly had the intention to rape Deniece at that time, naawa kami kay denise kaya binugbog namin siya.

4. The condo visit
Chito Roño: Si Vhong Navarro ay naimbitihan sa isang condominium unit sa Fort ng isang kaibigang babae.
Deniece: Nagulat na lang ako at may dala siyang food.

5. Cedric Lee appearing in the scene
Vhong:
She was surprised to see him up on her floor. She stepped out and appeared Cedric.
Cedric: I was about to pick up Deniece in her condo when I heard her screaming for help.

6. What really happened?
Vhong: May nangyari, pero walang sexual intercourse.
Cedric: Vhong was on top of Deniece. Ang instinct ko, I grabbed him from the back at hinila ko pababa ng kama. Si Deniece ay tumakbo sa sister ko at inilabas na siya sa condo unit. Naiwan dun sa condo, ako at ‘yung lalaki na di ko pa kilala ay si Vhong.

7. Network linkage
There are rumors that Deniece is the granddaughter of GMA CEO Felipe Gozon. GMA Network has released a statement saying that “the complainant involved in the Vhong Navarro incident is not related to GMA Chariman and CEO Atty. Felipe L. Gozon.” There are also reports that Deniece is actually the niece of GMA TV host, Mel Tiangco, whose maiden name is Cornejo.

8. Missing Blotter
Vhong: I signed a blotter dated January 22 (raping Deniece Cornejo), pero ginawa ko lang yon dahil ni-blackmail nila ako.
Chito Roño: That is the missing blotter that suddenly resurfaced. It was not found in any precinct in Taguig yesterday.
Police: The victim only wanted to put the incident on record for future reference and is no longer interested in filing charges against Navarro.

9. From 500k to 2M
Vhong:
From PHP500,000, umabot sa PHP1 million hanggang sa PHP2 million. Sabi ko hindi ko na kaya. Damage ko raw doon sa babae.
Cedric: Pagdating ko sa condo, nakita ko yung mga damages, roughly mga PHP800,000 plus. Tinawagan ko siya the next day, baka hindi siya makapagsalita [dahil sa injuries], tinext ko na lang siya. ‘Gawin mo na lang one million para kasama na yung mga moral damages and everything.’ And he agreed. He asked for the account number of Deniece. Sabi ko, ‘Sige, iwanan mo na lang diyan kay Deniece. I don’t want anything to do with money. Baka mamaya isipin mo, ako pang nag-iinteres diyan.’

10. Is Deniece serious in fighting for her case?
Deniece: If you want justice, I will give you the real justice. In the field of women’s rights. The right will always be right.
NBI: Deniece was a no-show at the NBI probe.
