Ping Lacson says that contrary to the fears of Rosebud Ong that in a month, she may be dead, owing to the Department of Justice (DoJ)’s dropping of her as a government witness under the witness protection program (WPP), he is not going to harm her.
Possibly, but that hardly means that Lacson and his boys will not harass her, the way she harassed him then. Also, what if Ong one day meets an “accident” and dies, just who then would likely be suspected of having done her in, if not Lacson, through his boys? After all, it was Ping who obviously pressured the Justice chief to drop Rosebud Ong from the WPP. That much was clear, as part of the quid pro quo he has with Justice Chief Leila de Lima.
