After weeks of tongue-wagging among lawyers, Justice Secretary Leila de Lima
confirmed that Quezon City assistant prosecutor Philip dela Rosa is now under
administrative and criminal investigation after his wife lodged a complaint
against him arising from a video allegedly showing his extramarital sexual acts
with another woman.
The charges were forwarded to the DOJ after QC prosecutors inhibited
themselves from investigating the case because of their professional links
to Dela Rosa, who had just joined the Prosecutor's Office last October 2012.
The sex scandal has become the scuttlebutt in legal circles because the woman
in the video [identity withheld] was allegedly a bar topnotcher who became a
public attorney specializing in domestic violence and a law school professor.
She is allegedly a daughter of a regional trial court judge who was recently
promoted magistrate of a superior court.
De Lima said the wife has filed separate disbarment complaints before the
Integrated Bar of the Philippines against the prosecutor and the judge's
daughter, who has since left for Canada.
