Hi, my name is Sunny Miller. I am a 64 year old man from Michigan in the USA. I bought some seaside property here and, well, the locals simply do not respect my property rights. Little children swim in front of my house and I have to chase them off. Some of these people harass me and steal my stuff which is why I have prevented them from using a road near my house. The BI finally arrested me after getting so many complaints and it was then that the realized I had been over staying. But much to the chagrin of my neighbors they released me. Now these folks want me gone.

A group of residents in San Remigio, Cebu staged a protest rally Sunday, July 17, calling for the deportation of their unruly American neighbor arrested by the Bureau of Immigration (BI) last May.
Carrying placards, about 100 residents of Barangay Punta assembled outside the house of Sunny Miller around noon.
They called on government officials to intervene and help address their plight.
“We humbly implore President Bongbong Marcos, Senators Raffy Tulfo, Pia Cayetano, and Risa Hontiveros to intercede and help us to have Miller deported immediately,” said Alfredo Arcipe, president of the Punta Fisherfolks Association.
The residents want Miller be deported as they accused him of harassing them ever since he arrived in their place in 2018.
They alleged that some of them were accused of being thieves and they were not allowed to use a road near his house.
The American was also accused of throwing stones at children who swam in the sea in front his house.
Miller arrived in the place in 2018 and claimed to own a 4,000-square meter lot in a coastal area.
The American had several physical encounters with some residents because of his boorish behavior, the residents said.
Because of the complaints against Miller, the barangay council declared him persona non grata in a session on July 16, 2021.
Miller, a 64-year-old native of Michigan, was arrested by operatives of the Intelligence Division of the BI.
He was arrested after the BI acted on the complaints of residents.
Immigration officials later discovered that Miller has been overstaying in the country.After his arrest, Miller returned to the place early this month.
“We are devastated and frustrated with the Immigration for allowing Miller to come back in the area,” said Alma Patalinghug, president of the barangay’s women’s association.
Hi, my name is being withheld because I am a minor. My mother is an OFW and she and my dad would get into arguments on the phone. Afterwards my dad would take his frustration on me and my siblings. We had noisy arguments that the neighbors knew about but they shrugged it off as nothing. Well, I got tired of it and so after one heated argument I stabbed him in the chest and abdomen killing him. I am sorry I did it though.

A police probe has recently established that a minor who killed his father in Libungan town, Cotabato province last Tuesday is a battered child who has borne physical abuse for over two years.
Citing the account of neighbors in Barangay Ulamian, Maj. Jojie Barotas, Libungan police chief, said Rafael, 44, had a heated argument with his 15-year-old son prior to being stabbed to death at around 6 a.m.
Barotas added that the suspect confessed to being mauled by his father that morning after quarreling over the phone with his mother who is working abroad.
The battering prompted the suspect to grab a knife and stab his father in the chest and abdomen.
According to Barotas, the physical abuse of the 15-year-old boy and his three other siblings happens every time Raphael had a quarrel over the phone with his wife who left for overseas work in 2019.
“Actually, the neighbors are used to it already. But they didn’t expect that it would worsen into having the son kill his father,” Barotas added.
Barotas said that while undergoing interrogation, the minor showed remorse for the incident, admitting that he was overrun by anger.
Hi, my name is Jeovanie Castillo Collado. I work as a driver and am married. But on the side I have a lover.

Hi, my name is Ronald Coronel Mayormita. I practice spearfishing for a living. One night it was raining heavy and there was a lot of lighting. Not minding the weather I lifted up my spear intending to thrust it through a fish but the lightning cracked and the bolt was attracted by my long metal spear held aloft like a lightning rod. I was immediately electrocuted to death.

Hi, my name is Noel Abaquita. I love mahjong. It is a very addicting game and this has plunged me into debt and a lot of trouble. To pay off those debts I resorted to stealing bikes and pawning them. The latest bike I stole was worth P30,000. But the cops were hot on my trail and now I am in jail. This is not the first time I have been arrested for this crime and it probably won't be the last time either.

Hi, my name is Regie Castino. I drive a tricycle but on the side I have some fighting cocks. Maybe one day I will hit the jackpot in the cockpit. One night I was watching over my fighting cocks when I saw a guy steal a few of my birds. Naturally I ran after him and stabbed him twice. Turns out it was some 17 year old...Kid? Man? Teen? The cops pulled out the cocks he had stuffed his bag. More of my cocks had being stolen previously but I am not sure if it was this guy. I was able to reach a settlement with the family so I did not go to jail.

Hi, my name is John (not my real name) and my wife's name is Diane (not her real name.) I had a suspicion that Diane was having an affair so I followed her around. She got into a company-owned car with a workmate and they drove off to a condominium. When the went into the room together that is when I immediately called the police. They kicked in the door like gangbusters. It was great to catch her in the act but also heartbreaking and pitiful because we have two children. She begged for forgiveness and I gave it to her. Hopefully she does not do it again.

Police Major Henry Orbiso, chief of Waterfront Police Station, said they responded to the call from the husband John (not his real name) and went to the condominium where they caught his wife Diane (not her real name) with another man.

(The husband is very kind. He forgave his wife even if he caught her with another man in a room.)
After the incident, the couple went back to their home in Barangay Pardo.
Police said Diane, who is in her 40s, was found having a relationship with her workmate, a division manager of a big company in Cebu City. Diane is also a manager of a separate division in the same company
John already suspected that his wife was seeing another man.

The responding policemen, together with John, went inside the room and saw the wife and her workmate there.
