The Fortune-Telling Judge and the Three Dwarfs

Whether it’s crucifixion reenactments or judges consulting mystic gnomes, there’s some whacky stuff going on over in the Philippines. Not to judge the entire country based on the actions of a few nuts, but there must be something in the water over there (although there seem to be plenty of people drinking the same water here).

MANILA (Reuters) – A Philippine judge who claimed he could see into the future and admitted consulting imaginary mystic dwarfs has asked for his job back after being fired by the country’s Supreme Court.

“They should not have dismissed me for what I believed,” Florentino Floro, a trial judge in the capital’s Malabon northern suburb, told reporters after filing his appeal.

Floro was sacked last month and fined 40,000 pesos ($780) after a three-year investigation found he was incompetent, had shown bias in a case he was trying and had criticized court procedure, a ruling showed.

He told investigators that three mystic dwarfs — Armand, Luis and Angel — helped him carry out healing sessions during breaks in his chambers.

The Supreme Court said it was not within its expertise to conclude that Floro was insane, but agreed with the court clinic’s finding that he was suffering from psychosis.

I think part of the problem was the dwards themselves. Armand has a proven track record and Luis is pretty reliable, but Angel is another story. The judge most likely got fired because he was consulting a dwarf whose name carries a religious connotation. This is just another example of a man being fired for expressing his faith. Or because he’s crazy, although the court points out they’re not qualified to make that decision.

    This reminds me of the time I got suspended for hanging out behind the high school with Doc, Sneezy, Happy and Dopey. They slapped me with some kinda trumped up drug charge and told me I was hallucinating. I successfully sued the school for discriminating against my beliefs. Later that year, a bunch of us staged a walkout in protest of the fact that our head coach refused to allow our magic ass gremlins to join the track team.

    Goddamn secularists.

  2. King Retard:

    “Goddamn secularists.”

    Reminds me of the time my boss wouldn’t give me an extra long lunch break to commune with the spirit world. He told me I had to fit it in the confines of my 30 minute lunch break or two 10 minute breaks. I told him that sometimes the spirits took a while to respond and that the number of non-believers at work were impeding my contact. I got him and half the staff fired for discriminating against my beliefs.

    How is this any different than judges praying to an invisible sky daddy for guidance?

    No difference at all, Star.

    Luckily, one doesn’t *have* to swear on a bibble in court anymore, but I would love to one day be called to testify in a trial I could give a fuck about.

    Since Muslims are making moves to have Q’urans stocked in courtrooms so they can swear on them rather than bibbles, and the whole idea is to just make you swear on something you deeply believe in so as to further guarantee you keep your oath of truth, I would love an opportunity to insist that I be allowed to swear on the book I believe in most: Everyone Poops

    A more thoroughly truth-telling book has never been written, and I would insist on swearing on it. In fact, I believe that magic gremlins live in my ass and guide my destiny — and they insist I swear on Everyone Poops. They tell me this when I pray to them. Or at least, a guy named Hankey (who told me about the magic gremlins) says they do. Mister Hankey, he likes to be called. And he says if I don’t pray to the magic ass gremlins, he’ll kick the shit out of me.

    I don’t care how ridiculous that sounds to you. It is the basis of my entire scatotheology.

    What’s that you say? There are no magic gremlins in my ass? Prove it! You are discriminating against my deeply held beliefs!

    I’m filing a civil suit as soon as I find a lawyer!

    Are there any lawyers in the room???

    Thanks for getting it!!!

  7. Eve:

    Still *lmao!*

  8. King Retard:

    I’m always glad to help entertain.

  9. Reluctant Atheist:

    Well, the story doesn’t surprise me at all. The Phillipinos are extremely religious (large % are RC’s).
    This struck me as odd:

    The Supreme Court said it was not within its expertise to conclude that Floro was insane, but agreed with the court clinic’s finding that he was suffering from psychosis.

    Wait, aren’t people suffering from psychosis insane anyways? Maybe it got lost in translation?
    Anyone hear from the evil stepsisters on this 1?

  10. King Retard:

    No word from the stepsisters yet RA, but the Big Bad Wolf is said to be thrilled because his sentence will more than likely be overturned as a result of judicial incompetance.

  11. Eve:

    KR: No word from the stepsisters yet RA, but the Big Bad Wolf is said to be thrilled because his sentence will more than likely be overturned as a result of judicial incompetance.

    True, but Little Red Riding Hood has already threatened to file a perpetual restraining order against him if he gets out, and she’s hired the Hunter as her full-time bodyguard.

    This is fun! Filipinos are a blast, aren’t they? No wonder the sane ones leave.

  12. Tommy:

    My wife is an immigrant from the Philippines, and I love her family, but there is a lot of whackiness in the country. This is a country that elected a former actor and incompetent (Joseph Estrada) for president (I know some people are going to bring up Reagan, but c’mon, even if you disagreed with his policies, he had political experience before being elected president) and nearly electing another former actor and incompetent (Fernando Poe, who died less than a year after the election, so it was probably a good thing he did not win).

    There is a lot of poverty and desperation in the Philippines, and the masses get fed up when they don’t see the professional politicians like Arroyo delivering for them, so they look to charismatic populist figures who talk a good talk but don’t have a friggin clue about how to govern a populous and sprawling archipelago.

  13. Eve:

    Ramen, Tommy.

  14. King Retard:

    Thanks for the info Tommy.

    Sirs/Madam,
    I am Judge Florentino V. Floro, Jr. (a Regional Trial Court Judge of Br. 73, Malabon, NCJR, Metro Manila, REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES). My physical address is 123 Dahlia, Alido, Malolos, 3000 Bulacan, Philippines. My E-mail Address is: judge_florentino_v_floro@yahoo.com; my telephone number is (044) 662-82-03, digitel, Philippines.
    On April 7, 2006, the Philippine Supreme Court RELIEVED (separated – it did not dismiss) me from judicial service, and paid me 3 years backwages, by reason of PSYCHOSIS, a medical incapacity; they said – because I allegedly believed in dwarves, angel of death, inflicting sicknesses, psychic phenomena and (had in writing) predicted the downfall of 13th Philippine President Joseph Estrada (on December, 1998) who was ousted by people power on January 20, 2001. You can read the Philippine Supreme Court Decision penned by M. Justice Minita Viray-Chico Nazario, 75 pages, March 31, 2006 in: Judge Florentino V. Floro, Jr. A.M. No. RTJ-99-1460 OCAD – versus – JUDGE FLORENTINO V. FLORO, JR….supremecourt.gov.ph/jurisprudence/…/mar2006/A.M. No. RTJ-99-1460.htm – 525k –
    This is the FIRST time in world judicial history that this happened. The American and other Constitutions provide for dismissal or removal of judges, jurists and magistrates because of graft, corruption, misconduct, or bad behaviour; but resignation – only for those medically incapacitated. In the Philippines, this is the FIRST — for since 1901, the Philippine Supreme Court never ever dismissed or removed a judge because of belief in the paranormal, religion and psi. Hence, REUTERS, AFP, AP, ASIAN REPORTER, MSNBC, MY WAY News, NEW24.com, ABC NEWS ONLINE, GULF TIMES, 7DAYS, AE, BUZZSPREE.COM, FOREING BLOGGERS, THE DAILY JUDGE, or a total of 66 foreign REPORTS, NEWS, HEADLINES, BLOGS and 14 Philippine News Headlines, covered – REPORTED – the said DECISION / my RELIEF due to psychosis.

    On April 12, 2006, or 4 days later, the Philippines was shocked by the painful DEATH of Lawyer Atty. Luzviminda D. Puno, former clerk of court of the Supreme Court and wife of Senior Justice Reynato S. Puno, who passed at the St. Luke”s Medical Hospital in Quezon City due to complications from a heart surgery. She was 65. Manila Bulletin Online http://www.mb.com.ph/issues/2006/04/13/SP_PROV20060413.html.

    On May 4, 2006, I filed by APPEAL (81 PAGES, Partial Reconsideration) of the 75 pages March 31, 2006 DECISION, and on May 30, 2006, I filed with the P.I. Supreme Court, my 87 pages SECOND SUPPLEMENT to my APPEAL (all these are attached with this letter for your perusal/if it can be accommodated, if not, please send me your E-mail address).

    I write / e-mail to you and to all REPORTERS who reported me, because, I want to THANK you, for NOTING my painful case. Let me therefore, tell you the STORY and TRUTH behind the DECISION, and these 66 WORLD REPORTS/BLOGS,etc.
    TRUTH:
    I never used the word DWARVES in any DECISION, and I never consulted any imaginary dwarf to pen my decisions, my detractors submitted these false evidence or lies; and what I do believed in is: in the so-called SPIRIT GUIDES or PROTECTORS. LUIS, is the KING OF ALL KINGS of ELEMENTALS/spirits worldwide; and he is GOD’s ANGEL (Genesis, Exodus, etc.) What I believe in, is what St. Paul teaches: Gifts of the Holy Spirit, Prophecy and Spiritual Healing. I am GIFTED, and I never tried to develop my psychic powers, since what I believe in, is God’s GIFT to me of these — TO HEAL and TO PROPHESY, I never used these in DECISIONS.
    I am not psychotic, and if you read the DECISION, it RULED that I can apply in other government positions that do not require dispensation of justice. I am a victim of INJUSTICE. On September 19, 1995, I stated that Atty. Teresita Cruz-Sison (Judicial and Bar Council Member) would suffer massive STROKE. HER VENGEANCE resulted in the submitting of FALSE EVIDENCE about DWARFS, ANGELS, PSYCHIC PHENOMENA, etc. Here in the Philippines, Judges, Justices are first NOMINATED by the Judicial and Bar Council (who selects 3) and the President of the Philippines appoints a Judge or Justice based on these 3 submissions.

    I admit that GOD has chosen me to be the instrument to CLEAN the Philippine Supreme Court and Judiciary of CORRUPTION and abuse of power — by inflicting illnesses. I admit that the controversial DECISION was released as it is, RELIEVING me but PAYING me backwages because I was placed under PREVENTIVE SUSPENSION since July 20,1999 until now, or 6 ¾ years; so THE INVESTIGATION TOOK 6 ¾ YEARS, NOT 3 YEARS AS YOU ALL REPORTED. I could not work nor practice my job because of that punishment.

    NOW, the judge who was supposed to replace me on 1999, Judge ROSA CASAS REYES (throat and lungs cancer), who was appointed as Judge for the neighbor Branch 74, RTC, Malabon, is on TERMINAL SICK LEAVE since last year; Assisting Judge Leonido was appointed in her stead. Last year, I was DISCRIMINATED, because, while I was forcibly tested by 5 mental health professionals, plus one psychiatrist, Judge Rosa Reyes was not even required to be examined by a panel of doctors, so as to RELIEVE her, as required by Philppine Constitution.

    IN SUM, KARMA and the CURSE as we Catholics and Christians believe in have their own ways in revealing the truth; my clerk of court, Atty. Esmeralda G. Dizon, who submitted false evidence about dwarfs and psychic phenomena, to make it appear that I have brain damage, now, her first born, GELAY, 10 years old was inflicted with EPILEPSY, with 2x a week severe attacks. I admit that my GUIDE LUIS did all these, to impress upon the Philippine Judiciary, that receiving BRIBE money and abuse of powers, due to lust for glory, cannot remain unpunished in the laws of these UNSEEN, that are more REAL than we ever imagine. I REPEAT, LUIS, ARMAND AND ANGEL ARE NOT THE LOWLY DWARVES OR GNOMNES BUT SPIRIT GUIDES AND PROTECTORS THAT GOD HAD CHOSES AS INSTRUMENTS TO RID THE PHILIPPINE JUDICIARY OF MISFITS AND ROTTEN EGGS, THOSE THAT FAIL TO DELIVER IMPARTIAL JUSTICE BECAUSE OF MONEY, GREASE OR GRAFT MONEY.

    The PONENTE in this case, Justice MINITA VIRAY CHICO-NAZARIO (the wife of ROD NAZARIO, you, know, the former promoter of WBC boxing champion MANNY PACQUIO) was a Sandiganbayan Justice of the Philippines who was promoted Philippine Supreme Court Justice on July, 2004. She fought so hard for me, and were it not for many MEDICAL SURGERIES undergone by S.C. Justices in the Philippines, due to this painful case, I would have been REINSTATED and given JUSTICE.

    But your 66 WORLD REPORTS vindicated me: this is the FIRST in world judicial history that a CASE had been REPORTED with GREAT MAGNITUDE, with COMPASSION and SARCASM, in my favor.
    THANKS. And please do read the LONG DECISION, THE LONG APPEALS, …attached herewith (if it can be accommodated, if not, please send me your e-mail address). The PEACE OF CHRIST.
    Sincerely,
    Judge FLORENTINO V. FLORO, JR.,

    [...] For those of you that don’t follow the comments feeds and may have missed this weirdness, we received a strange form letter, clearly intended for all media outlets and blogs that had written about the case, from the whacko Filipino judge who King Retard penned an entry about in early May.

    [...] 1) King Retard had the honor of receiving a customized form letter, along with “66 WORLD REPORTS/BLOGS,” from the lunatic Filipino outlaw judge Florentino (”I hurl illnesses”) Floro — thanks to this post back in early May. Like I said in the comment thread, how awesome that this guy took the time to formally cite “King Retard” and “Stupidity” (one can only assume he didn’t quite know what the words meant — or that, like any good lawyer, he was just being thorough) in the header of his nutjob press release.
