(a) affirmed the truth of the story of Samuel Ong that he is in possession of the “mother of all tapes” (i.e., the Garci Tapes) because they were given to him by ISAFP personnel T/Sgt. Vidal Doble; (b) stated that the said T/Sgt. Vidal “Jeff” Doble, her boyfriend at the time, admitted to her that he was among the ISAFP MIG 21 personnel who had worked on the wiretapping of Virgilio Garcillano’s conversations with President Arroyo; that in fact she was able to enter the ISAFP’s Blue Room where, Sgt. Doble and other ISAFP personnel admitted, they did the wiretapping of Garcillano; that she personally saw the special equipment used for wiretapping cellphones, like Garcillano’s; (c) stated that her boyfriend T/Sgt. Vidal Doble admitted to her that he will give the tapes containing the wiretapped conversations about election fraud between President Arroyo and Garcillano (i.e., the “Garci Tapes”) to Angelito Santiago 9 , who will give it to (former NBI Director) Samuel Ong, who in turn will make the same public on June 5, 2004; that they were all together when she did see her boyfriend T/Sgt. Vidal Doble get the tapes out of MIG 21, ISAFP Compound, Camp Aguinaldo and deliver the same to Angelito Santiago, which the latter in turn gave to (former NBI Director) Samuel Ong; (d) through her positive familiarity with them, identified the voice, names and faces (from photographs) of several ISAFP personnel involved in the wiretapping that resulted in the “Garci Tapes;” and (e) recounted how her boyfriend T/Sgt. Vidal Doble had received from Samuel Ong at the Imperial Palace Suites an amount which Santiago said was P2 million, after Ong had received the tapes from Doble and after he (Doble) was videotaped exposing the ISAFP wiretapping. We quote the statements of Marieta Santos to the Senate under oath on December 8, 2005 and January 19, 2006: Testimony of Marieta Santos under oath before the Senate Committee on National Defense and Security, December 8, 2005 -- confirming the story of Samuel Ong re the origin of the Garci Tapes “THE CHAIRMAN. Ang unang tanong pala, bakit kayo nandito ngayon? MS. SANTOS. Narito po ako ngayon dahil po nakita ko po si Atty. Sammy Ong sa TV kahapon, naawa po ako sa kanya dahil biktima–biktima siya ng maruming labanan. Gusto ko lang po siyang tulungan dahil alam ko po ‘yong nangyari, gusto ko pong 9 Santiago was then the driver of Samuel Ong, according to the Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism (“The Tale of the Tangled Tapes,” Sheila Coronel, PCIJ i Report Special Edition (Year 2005)” 22
sabihin sa lahat na wala po silang kasalanan, pare-parehas lang pong biktima. THE CHAIRMAN. Ms. Santos, ang hinahanap natin dito ngayon ay sino ba at saan nanggaling… Saan nanggaling ‘yong tape na sinasabing nasa possession ni Atty. Ong, ano? Mayroon ka bang nalalaman patungkol dito sa-- saan ba nanggaling itong tapes na ito? MS. SANTOS. Sa pagkakaalam ko po, ito po ay binigay ni Technical Sgt. Vidal Doble kay Angelito Santiago buwan po ng February – hindi ko na po matandaan kung anong date. Tapos po, ibinigay po ni Angelito Santiago kay Atty. Ong, tapos inilabas po nila. Ito po ay galing sa loob ng ISAFP Compound, MIG 21… MS. SANTOS. Nakakapasok po kasi ako sa loob ng MIG 21. Sinabi niya po sa akin na mayroon nga daw pong tape na ilalabas sila nina Lito Santiago at saka ni Atty. Ong. THE CHAIRMAN. Sinabi ba niya kung ano ‘yong tape na ‘yon, patungkol saan ‘yong tape na ‘yon? MS. SANTOS. Tungkol po sa nangyaring dayaan noong nakaraang election. THE CHAIRMAN. Nasabi ba niya kung sino ‘yong mga na-ano, nasabit doon sa dayaan na ‘yan, o sino ‘yong mga kasama doon sa dayaan? MS. SANTOS. Dalawang tao lang po ‘yong nabanggit niya sa akin. THE CHAIRMAN. Puwede mo bang sabihin kung sino ‘yong dalawang tao na ‘yon? MS. SANTOS. Si Garcillano po, Virgilio Garcillano at saka si PGMA po.” (Marieta Santos, t.s.n., Senate Committee on National Defense and Security, December 8, 2005, pp. 3 to 5, II-1, 10:14 a.m.; emphasis supplied) SEN. PIMENTEL. All right. So, anyway, ‘yung tape na pinag-usapan o ‘yung the tape that you are talking about, nakita mo ba ‘yun talaga? Did you see it yourself? MS. SANTOS. Opo. SEN. PIMENTEL. Saan? MS. SANTOS. Sa loob po ng sasakyan ni Lito Santiago. Doon niya po sakin ibinigay’yun. SEN. PIMENTEL. Okay, pero ‘yung tape na ‘yun ay nakuwan ba ninyo was it played? In other words, kasi marami namang tape 23
