- "I thought that was the end of me" - Leila de Lima on being hostaged by a fellow inmate
Three months after being released on bail, former senator and prisoner of conscience Leila de Lima describes in graphic and terrifying detail the day in prison when she was held captive by an Abu Sayyaf inmate known for beheading hostages.
She reveals that after the hostage taker was shot dead and she was rescued, she received a concerned call from President Marcos, an early sign that his alliance with the Dutertes could be cracking.
That was her scariest moment, she says, but not among her darkest, which were the times she wasn't allowed a furlough from jail to attend the wakes of close friends, including PNoy.
Not originally a cat lover, she adopted stray cats in prison to keep her company. She took several home after her release and one of them insisted on joining her for this interview.
Otherwise, she was in solitude for nearly seven years while imprisoned in Camp Crame and one of the rare VIP inmates without a mobile phone. "I wanted to follow the rules," she tells Howie Severino. She also was not allowed access to the Internet, so she kept up with the outside world through print newspapers and printouts of online articles delivered by her senate staff.
She says she never lost faith in the judicial system, which she's confident will vindicate her and declare her innocent of all charges.
Yet for the alleged crimes of former President Rodrigo Duterte, she says the only recourse is the International Criminal Court because there is a "clear demonstration of the unwillingness and inability" of the Philippine justice system to investigate.
"That's one of the reasons why nagwawala na si Duterte. Out na ang antagonism niya kay President Marcos because I think he suspects the BBM administration is really cooperating with the ICC."
Meanwhile, as she vows to assist the ICC gather evidence, de Lima is back to teaching law and spending time with her aged mother, who was never told by her protective family what her famous daughter went through. #GMAIntegratedNews #KapusoStream #GMANetwork

Sen. De Lima , ginabayan ka ni Lord, at sa mga dasal namin, God is good all the time,
Love ka namin at lagi namin ipagdarasal ang kaligtasan,Sen. De Lima
It was a very good discussion. Thanks Howie.... Atty Leila is at her best element, very expressive on how her almost 7 years of imprisonment was like. The hostage taking situation was scary but she's a very strong woman to be able to handle herself. The almost 7 years in prison in almost solitary confinement did not break her spirit. But look at Tandang Kanor now age is catching up on him. Wish that TK be punished for all the hardships he had inflicted on the Filipino people. That would be a big revenge.
Indeed. Well said senator Delima
Duterte and others who are responsible for drug killings specially when they put you in prison
They should be on jail as well.
Sen. Leila De Lima 🙏❤️🌷
God Bless po Ma'am ❤
Ipray for your safety and i love you senator de lema

The weather is coming sooner,from politics..
She is stronger than DUTERTE she is willing to prove her innocence… kasi si DUTERTE guilty obvious
WOW ANG GANDA NGA VLOG MO AH AH
🙏🙏🙏
Your still lookin good mom my idol lawyer in the Philippines. From 😅NYC usa 🇺🇸 by manny.s from NYC USA 🇺🇸
Wag kayong ganyan guys...ako dati galit sa kanya kasi kinakalaban niya si duterte..im pro administration kasi whoever wins kahit diko binoto sinusuportahan ko..maybe its time na ibigay niya side niya karapatan niya yun..
At wag po kayo maging die hard at maging bulag sa isang politiko..ganyan ka dumi ang pulitika , hindi natin alam kung totoo o hindi ang mga charges sa kanya,kaya nga nakahiwalay ang kapangyarihan ng judiciary..sila ang nag aaral maigi kung sino ang mga guilty talaga ayon sa law natin..hindi ko pinupush na wala siyang kasalanan dahil hindi talaga natin alam kung totoo o binayaran lang yung mga witnesses laban sa kanya..its better na abangan nalang natin kung ano yung magiging final na resulta..
Faith is a formidable force that keep us living that's what Sen. Delima and Sen. Ninoy Aquino have in common. Both have a strong will to change our life for a better even if this means sacrificing their freedom. I' feel sorry for those people who are so ungrateful and naive not to appreciate and value their act.
Next time “ NO DUTERTE’s clan next ELECTION “. please…. Pinoy ???
