The Department of Justice (DOJ) confirms it has filed five criminal cases against Marikina City 1st District Representative Marcelino “Marcy” Teodoro. The cases include four counts of sexual assault and one count of acts of lasciviousness, according to DOJ spokesperson Polo Martinez.
The DOJ says the allegations involve two female police officers who previously served as Teodoro’s security personnel. The complaints are described across outlets as connected to misconduct claims by those officers.
In addition to the filing of charges, one outlet reports Teodoro disputes the process, decrying a “sudden panel swap,” referring to developments in how his case is being handled. Other reporting focuses primarily on the DOJ’s confirmation of the indictment and the specific counts filed. The outlets do not provide final case outcomes, and Teodoro’s position is presented as allegations he contests.
