my tale of warning philippines

[david albicutani 0]

I will begin the process of bringing my wife and two sons to the USA . I have to register the boys.

 

In late 2022 I got criminal cases filed on an Australian child molester and trafficker. As it turned out he was connected. He is still free. He wasnt

even deported. Shortly after I did that, the BI arrested me and put false charges on me. These charges appeared on my immigration charge sheet

but were not filed in any court. I did a full 17 months in Bicutan. My wife eventually was able to get me out. I had no opportunity to contest the

charges against me as they were not filed in court. My attorney scammed me and I learned that is common. The conditions in Bicutan are bad

the US embassy will not help you.  If you are a foreigner and anything comes up, your business partners betray you, your wife or girlfriend turns on you,

be advised you have no rights. The BI can bury you for years. The BI is corrupt. If you want to buy your way out , you can.  I chose not to fight and 

to just get out of there. I did pay and it took 18 months.  I have a house in the Philippines and my family is there. I will file the spouse visa 

and get my family out. Many foreigners in the Philippines are not aware of the risk they are taking. Most people including Filipinos are not aware 

of just how bad the corruption is.  After my family is out, I will work to expose them . attached is proof i never had any real cases.

You might want to read about AWA (Adam Walsh Act) to see if the accusations/charges (?) were something that could hinder the process.  

 

Even without being found guilty, it can delay the process quite a bit.

 

See this thread for example:

I have heard Bicutan Prison is really bad, I have never known anyone who was detained in there.  Bureau of Immigration is supposed to be very corrupt and they will blackmail you many times before they will release you or let you leave the country. 

 

I have heard the same thing about you can either play the game (Pay the bribes) or sit in detention and wait and I hear about  18 months is how long it takes if you don't give bribe money.

Lemonslice, hopefully if the Filipino Court has records of false charges they are much quicker at getting it over than the FBI in the US....

i was never charged in a court. the "charges" were just on paper in immigration. I was never allowed to defend myself.  I did pay an attorney who scammed me. the threat is if you fight , they hold you longer 

 

In my humble opinion foreigners are not aware of the risk, and how bad the corruption is, nor how easy it is to fall in their corrupt hands.  

 

my sincere warning is do not go there.

This American was held like 5 months, on false charges he just got released, He had already served his time and the BI never checked with FBI or US Embassy. He now talking about his ordeal on Youtube:

Funny thing is the current President of Philippines, Bong Marcos has an outstanding arrest warrant out for him in the USA, going back to his fathers time as President for crimes against humanity.

 

Marcos can't and won't set foot inside US soil as a private citizen or he would be arrested and jailed.

Here is the guy that was falsely arrested and held in Cebu for 5 months:

i did 18 months on false charges  only in immigration, never filed in a real court... which i can prove the DOJ gave my wife papers saying i never had a case..

 

BEWARE OF THE PHILIPPINES... IF ANY WIFE OR GIRLFRIEND TURNS ON YU... that was not my situaton but i saw it a lot in jail

 

 

if any doubt get out of the country asap

 This is true Al Bicutani. Corruption is rampant within the Philippines government and the USEM is complicit also.

My daughter in law spent 2 years in jail and was sentenced to life in prison, on false drug charges. The local cops set her up, demanding a very large bribe. They were aware that my late son was sending her a lot of money from Afghanistan. Luckily we hired a new lawyer, a retired criminal judge and she got a new judge placed and the case was thrown out. She has been scared ever since.  one more month and I should have them home in Florida.

Wow, Thank God it turned out well, but 2 years and possible life sentence is scary.  That is the bad/sad thing about the Philippines that people don't talk about is the corruption there, Forgeiners never see it first hand.
