Television news anchor Gretchen Fullido thanked the public for their support and reaction after she filed criminal cases against ABS-CBN colleagues.
In a group message sent to reporters on Sunday, Oct. 7, Fullido’s lawyer Marvin Aceron extended the news anchor’s appreciation to the public after her filing of sexual harassment and libel cases.
“All I can say is these are public records now. The public can do their research and verify,” Fullido said in a statement relayed by her lawyer Aceron.
Fullido filed a sexual harassment complaint against former ABS-CBN news executive Cheryl Favila and news segment producer Maricar Asprec on Friday, Oct. 5, before the Quezon City Prosecutor’s Office.
She also filed libel charges against ABS-CBN news executives Cecilia “Ces” Drilon and Venancio Borromeo, and reporter Marie Lozano.
