i am bob Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 I will admit to satisfaction when true criminals are caught and sent to meet their justice. Just because they have run and are trying to hide in another country - be it the Philippines or any other country - does not prevent me from applauding their capture. And, to me, trafficking in hard drugs is one of the worse things a person can do! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp52 Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Why the fixation with these criminals? Is it because you think it makes all foreigners in the Philippines seem unworthy in the eyes of the host country? I don't think any perceptions would change regarding foreigners living in the Philippines even if there are ZERO foreigners hiding there that are wanted by the law. Is it because we all conduct our lives so self-righteously that we are indignant to those that don't? Why hasn't anyone mentioned the approximately 250,000 illegal Filipinos residing in the USA? Just curious..........seems people relish and gloat in these stories while there are thousands of internationally wanted criminals being repatriated for trial every week all over the world. Warm Regards, as always, Campero We tend to dicuss these stories that are related to the Philippines because this is a forum about living in the Philippines. If it were a US forum I would think they would have discussed the 250,000 illegal Filipinos living in the US. ( wow thats a lot. Go figure ). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me bubba Posted June 27, 2012 Author Posted June 27, 2012 27 june updates here is the latest story of another fugitive caught & deported An American fugitive wanted for fraud in the US and a German convicted of a sex offense in the Philippines were deported by the Bureau of Immigration (BI) and banned from returning to the country. Deported and included in the bureau’s blacklist were American William Elliott Phillips III and German Dieter Manfred Vinzentz. Phillips was deported last June 18 aboard a Philippine Airlines flight to Los Angeles, California. He is wanted to stand trial before a US district court in northern Ohio where he was charged with conspiracy to defraud the US and making a false personal income tax return. Phillips was expelled nearly two weeks after he was arrested in Calamban, Cebu by operatives of the BI fugitive search unit. Vinzentz, on the other hand, was deported last June 22 to Frankfurt, Germany via a Thai Airways flight. He was sent home after being discharged from the National Bilibid Prison where he served a jail sentence imposed on him by the Mandaue regional trial court. Mandaue City RTC Judge Teresita Galanida sentenced Vinzentz to three years imprisonment on Oct. 3, 2011 after finding him guilty of the crime of acts of lasciviousness. Immigration Commissioner Ricardo David Jr. explained that under the Immigration Act, a foreigner convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude shall be automatically deported after serving his sentence. Both Phillips and Vinzentz were placed on the immigration blacklist of undesirable aliens, thus they are banned from re-entering the Philippines. http://www.tribune.net.ph/index.php/metro-section/item/753-american-german-fugitives-deported Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lara Croft Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Why does BI kept on publishing who they caught and deported because Commissioner Ricardo David Jr.wanted to show the Media and the people that he is doing a GREAT JOB! What a FOOLISHNESS.!!! It was FBI and other INTERNATIONAL BUREAU who is really doing the job, without them the BI wouldn't know anything about the "fugitives". David only signs the deportation order, yet he claim all the CREDIT sh&t! Big question here is Why most fugitives hide in the Philippines? Its simple Filipinos are corrupt even if a "NATIVE" knows that a "FOREIGNER" is wanted in their own country,they will still hide them because of MONEY. What is SHAMEFUL is that BI has no access or system that can trace if a certain passport was cancelled. SO ALL THE FUGITIVES ARE WELCOME TO ENTER THE PHILIPPINES FREELY!!!!

i am bob Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 The BI has it's own special group that is used to track foreigners that are wanted in other countries. Yes, InterPol and the FBI will be involved but mostly by an agent who has knowledge as to the actions the fugitive will likely take - more of a profiler aspect. And, yes, they may be in the field with the task force members in order to have real time analysis and respond appropriately. This is common throughout the world. If a member of one country's policing goes to another country (on duty), they are not the lead in any investigation nor are they out playing cowboy like we see on TV. And, yes, poor people throughout the world, if desperate enough, will hide somebody for money - not just the Philippines. It may take a few months but somebody always slips up and the word gets out. I believe that BI is upgrading their tools to help prevent fugitives from getting into the Philippines so easily. And I have to admit that they do a better job than many other countries (look south of you) that are much better off financially. Note that I didn't - nor did anybody else - say that the Philippines were perfect. But heck, just look at our own countries! The Philippines is a small and not very rich country that has been ruled for many years by many who liked to keep their fingers in the cookie jar but that is starting to change. And with corruption being slowly rooted out and more money available, the government is working hard to improve it's services - not just in the BI but in all areas. That will take time and more money but I believe they are on the right track. And this leads me back to this queston... What's wrong with the head of the BI being proud of the work his department has done? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
