Women
of ‘Ice’ busted,
convicted
CAMP DANGWA, La Trinidad, Benguet — It is
known by many names in different parts of the world – “ice,” “yaba,” “poor man’s
cocaine,” “crazy meds” and “crystal meth” – and has destroyed the lives of
people from Beijing to Bangkok, and from down-under Australia to Polk County,
Florida.
On Tuesday, “shabu,”
destroyed the lives of two women – a 22-year-old college undergraduate
sentenced to life imprisonment in Baguio City; and a 24-year-old bachelorette
busted in a drug sting in San Fernando City, La Union.
In a 12-page decision
dated Aug. 13, 2013, Judge Antonio Reyes of the Baguio City Regional Trial
Court (RTC) Branch 61 sentenced Marie Flor S. Rodriguez to life imprisonment
for unlawful sale of dangerous drugs.
The judge also
ordered Rodriguez to pay a penalty of P5 million for her crime, two years and
three months after being collared in a shabu buy-bust operation by agents of
the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency-Cordillera Administrative Region
(PDEA-CAR).
Rodriguez, whose
clients were mostly college students, was arrested on June 23, 2011 in a sting
operation near her house in Pinsao Pilot Project, Baguio City after selling
shabu weighing 0.86 gram to a poseur-buyer.
A portion of Reyes’
decision read: “As an end note, the credibility of Agent (name withheld) was
pivotal in arriving at the conclusion. She knows her case. She was a credible
witness in this case… Even with a barrage of some misleading questions from the
defense during her cross examination, Agent (name withheld) did not flag, even
correcting the misleading questions, which further strengthened her credibility
and the truthfulness of her claim.”
Meanwhile at Camp
Florendo in La Union, Chief Supt. Ricardo C. Marquez presented to media
24-year-old suspect identified only as “Marian,” of Barangay San Francisco, San
Fernando City.
Marian, along with

joint operatives of the police’s Regional Anti-Illegal Drugs Special Operation
