MANILA, Philippines — The legal team of former Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo believes that she is still in the country, based on the assurances given by their client, according to lawyer Stephen David.

In a text message sent to the media on Tuesday, David, who is part of Guo’s legal team, addressed Sen. Risa Hontiveros’ claim that the dismissed mayor left the country for Malaysia on July 18.

“We, as her counsel, have always relied on the assurances provided by our client that she is still in the Philippines. Thus, without further evidence to prove that she has indeed left the country, our reliance in good faith on the assurances by our client remains,” David said.

“Throughout the course of our representation, we have continuously explained and emphasized to our client the importance of her personal participation in the legal process. We have consistently apprised her of her rights, and that without her active engagement, we will not be able to fully explore and exhaust all available legal remedies,” he added.

Earlier, the Department of Justice (DOJ) stated that Guo is still in the Philippines and had even requested the agency to dismiss the qualified human trafficking complaint against her on August 16.

Well, that's me convinced!  Just a thought - maybe they could actually meet her in person to confirm the above. 

They really do think we are all stupid, don't they?

After all, why would Guo even think of lying to her attorneys.
