Tint saves ***-in-car lovers
What happens inside a private vehicle is a private matter.
A 36-year-old Filipino-American and a 25-year-old woman would have kept it that way, if not for a roving security guard who caught them having *** inside the car at a mall’s basement parking area.
They were arrested, but the complaint for grave scandal against them did not prosper.
The Cebu City Prosecutor’s Office dismissed the complaint, saying the act cannot be considered “offensive and scandalous.”
Assistant Cebu City Prosecutor Liceria Lofranco-Rabillas explained that a case for grave scandal “consists of acts that are offensive to decency and good customs, which, having been committed publicly, have given rise to public scandal to persons who have accidentally witnessed the same.”
“The alleged acts done by respondents cannot be considered committed in a public place, as well as cannot be considered offensive and highly scandalous,” Rabillas stated in her single-page resolution.
