RULES THAT CAUSE DISMISSAL OF ILLIGAL DRUGS CASES
The most common grounds cited in the dismissal of illegal drugs cases are the failure of police man and
PDEA agents.
(1) to respect the suspect’s Miranda rights and
(2) observe the rules on warrantless arrests,
(3) buy-bust operation and
(4) chain of custody of evidence. The PNP and the PDEA should intensively train their respective operatives
on the proper observance of those rules, and even require them to memorize those rules.
The operatives may even be supplied with cards containing those rules, which we will call
(2) Miranda warning card,
(2) valid warrantless arrest card,
(3) buy- bust operation card and
(4) chain of custody card. It will greatly help in making observation of those rules an automatic reflex.
THE MIRANDA Should contain the following:
In Flagrante delicto- When in the officer’s presence, the personal to be arrested has committed, is actually committed,
or attempting to commit a crime . In other words, when the criminal is caught in the act of committing a crime.
Personal knowledge-when a crime has just been committed and the officer has probable cause to believe based on
personal knowledge of fact or circumstances that the person to be arrested has committed it. In other words, when an
officer know some facts to make him believe that a crime was committed, such as in hot pursuit.
Escapes- referring to detainees and prisoners who escape.
The BUY-BUST OPERATION CARD should contain the following:
A buy-bus operation is a form of entrapment witch has being accepted as a valid means of arresting violators
of the Dangerous Drugs Law. But entrapment must be distinguished from inducement, in entrapment, ways
and means are restored dead for the purpose of trapping and capturing the law breakers in the execution of the
criminal plan, whereas in instigation, the integrator practically introduce the would be dependent into the
commission of the offense, and himself becomes a co-principal. Entrapment is no bar to the persecution and
conviction of the accused; in integration the dependent would have to be acquitted. Where the criminal intent
originates in the mind of the entrapping person and the accused is lured into the commission of the offense
changed in order to prosecute him, there is no entrapment and no conviction may be had.
In illegal sale of prohibited drugs, the persecution must establish the following elements:
(1) the identifier of the buyer;
(2) the identify of the seller;
(3) the identify of the object (illegal drugs);
(4) the consideration (price);
(5) the delivery of the drugs sold; and
TREATMENT MODALITY
Drug treatment modality is the model or approach in the treatment of drug dependents utilized by the treatment and rehabilitation
centers.
1. Multidisciplinary Team Approach is a method in the treatment and rehabilitation of drug dependents which avails of the
services and skills of a team composed of psychiatrist, psychologist, social worker, occupational therapist and other related
disciplines in collaboration with the family and the drug dependent.
2. Therapeutic Community Approach
views addiction manifestation of a more complex psychological problem rooted in an interplay of emotional, social, physical and
spiritual values. It is a highly structured program wherein the community is utilized as the primary vehicle to foster behavioral and
attitudinal change. The patient receives the information and the impetus to change from being a part of the community. Role
modelling and peer pressure play significant parts in the program. The goal of every therapeutic community is to change the
patients' self-destructive thinking and behavioral pattern, teach them personal responsibility, positivize their self-image, create a
sense of human community and provide an environment in which human beings can grow and take responsibility and credit for
the growth.
3. Hazelden - Minnesotta Model
views addiction as a disease, an involuntary condition caused by factors largely outside a person's control. The program consists of
didactic lectures, cognitive- behavioural psychology, Alcoholic Anonymous principles / Twelve Steps Principles and biblio-
theraphy. It aims to treat patients with chemical dependency, endorsing a set of values and beliefs about the powerlessness of
people over drug taking and turning to a Higher Power to help them combat the disease. In this collaborate in defining the path to
recovery.
4. Spiritual Approach
uses the Bible as the primary source of inspiration to change. It views drug addiction as a sin,and encourages the patients to turn
and renew their relationships with the Lord.
5. Eclectic Approach aims at applying a holistic approach in the rehabilitation program. The spiritual and cognitive
components of the Twelve Steps complement the behavioural aspects of the Therapeutic Community. The skills and services of
rehabilitation professionals and paraprofessionals are made available. In doing so, different personality aspects of drug dependants
are well addressed geared towards their rehabilitation and recovery.
GAMBLING DEFINED
Gambling games refer to any game or scheme whether upon chance or skill, wherein wagers consisting of money, articles or vale
or representatives of value, are made. It is the fact that bets are made which makes an activity a gambling game. The game may be
decided purely on chance, purely on skill, or both. It becomes illegal and therefore prohibited if it is not authorized by a franchise.
However parlor games are exempted such as those during wakes, unless clearly appears that the wake is unnecessarily prolonged
as to be a cover excuse to conduct illegal gambling.
The term gaming refers to instances in which the activity has been specifically permitted by law. In the Philippines, the gaming
industry is controlled by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). The PAGCOR has the following
mandates:
a. Regulate, authorize and license games of chance, games of cards and games of numbers, particularly casino gaming, in the
Philippines;
b. Generate revenues for the Philippine Government's socio-civic and national development programs; and
c. Help promote the Philippine tourism industry thru gaming.
Why is Gambling prohibited?
Gambling is an act beyond the pale of good morals which, for the welfare of the people, should be exterminated. It has the effect
of causing poverty, dishonesty, fraud and deceit. Many man neglected his business and mortgaged his integrity to follow the fickle
Goddess of cards. Many woman has wasted her hours and squandered her substance gambling board while some children were
forgotten (US vs. Salaveria, 39 Phil. 102).
Fixed-odds gambling.
This frequently occurs at many types of sporting events, and political elections. Many bookmakers offer fixed odds on a number of
non-sports related outcomes, for example the direction and extent of movement of various financial indices, the winner of
television competitions. It is customary with fixed-odds gambling to know the odds at the time of the placement of the wager (the
"live price"), although this category also includes wagers whose price is determined only when the race or game (the "startling
price") It is ideal for a bookmaker to price/mark up a book such that the net outcome will always be in his favor, i.e. the sum of the
probabilities quoted for all possible outcomes will be in excess of 100%. The excess over 100% (or over round) represents profit to
the bookmaker in the event of a balanced/even book. In the more usual case of an imbalanced book, the bookmaker may have to
pay out more winnings than what is staked, or he may earn more than mathematically expected.
Parimutuel betting.
This is defined as the act of betting on horse or greyhound racing, in some countries like the Middle East camel racing is common.
Wagering may take place through parimutuel pools, or bookmakers may take bets personally.
Sports Betting.
This refers to the act of betting on team or individual sports. It has been a common past time for Filipinos to bet on sports events
such as basketball, boxing and other similar sporting events.
Arbitrage Betting.
Arbitrage is the practice of taking advantage of a price difference between two or more markets: striking a combination of
matching deals that capitalize upon the imbalance, the profit being the difference between the market prices. In the bettors'
slang an arbitrage is often referred to as an arb; people who use arbitrage are called arbers. A typical arb is around 2 percent,
often less; however 4-5 percent is Occasionally seen and during some special events they might reach 20 percent. Arbitrage
betting involves relatively large sums of money (stakes are bigger than in normal betting), due to large sums of money required
to generate a decent profit. It is usually detected faster by bookmakers. Arbitrage betting is almost always insufficiently
profitable due to detection, hackers, unreliable betting websites, limiting of stakes, and the use of high percentage arb's to con
arbitrage bettors into giving security details.
BOOKMAKING
Bookmakers "book" bets on two types of events - horse and sometimes dog races and sporting events such as football,
basketball, and boxing. Today most bets are placed by telephone directly or through a roving "handbook", "runner", or "sheet
writer" who transmits the bet to the bookmaker. Some bookmakers return the call from a variety of locations and the bet is
placed. Bets are written down and may be tape recorded by a machine attached to the phone. The bookmakers usually employ
clerks and handbooks, runners and sheet writers. The clerks handle the telephone record the bets and figure out the daily
finances. The runners receive a portion of the winnings, usually half and they must also share in the losses.
ORGANIZED CRIME AND BOOKMAKING
In an earlier period, bookmaking was an important source of income for organizes crime. Organized crime units ran the
operation directly of licensed syndicate bookmakers. However, most illegal wagering today involves, sports, rather than horse
racing and bets are made by telephone. Payoff is made the day after the event, so the prompt results provided by the wire
service are no longer relevant. Bookmakers frequently find their bets sufficiently unbalanced to require that they be played off
bookmaking involve many transactions and generates great deals of paperwork. The wagers are recorded when received, and
clerks have to review their receipts to determine winners and losers.
Gambling is often associated with crime. The relationship is easy to understand. Many types of gambling have been, indeed
still are, illegal. Hence, by definition, criminals were the only operators of games. When gambling restrictions were relaxed,
criminal were the first to open up legal gambling establishments.
During the 1950s, the Senate Committee to Investigate Organized Crime in Interstate Commerce held a number of hearings
on criminal influence in the casino industry. The committee was chaired by Senator Estes Kefauver, and the committee is also
known by his name. The committee found widespread evidence of skimming, which sheltered gambling profits from taxes.
The prevalence of crime left gaming once again on the verge of a national prohibition. The result of the committee's findings
was a crackdown on criminal influence and a cleansing of the casino industry. Eventually, the mob their casino interests to
lawful individuals and publicly-traded companies. Gambling operations, including card rooms, earn large amounts of cash
present particular opportunities for skimming and money laundering. Dealers don't have to continually inventory their chips
and money while they are working, providing opportunities for fraud. In addition, cheats are drawn to casinos and cardrooms
because of the large amount of money generated by the facilities Dealer skimming of chips by palming or collusion is
probably the greatest risk. Clubs allow employees to gamble when they aren't working, a situation that can lead to collusion.
Other risks include credit abuse, card cheaters, and currency transaction violations. Because of these factors, proper
operations and security are very important (Kefauver Committee Report, 1950).
WHY DO PEOPLE GAMBLE?
There is a debate over whether the motivation to gamble is positive or negative. A common view is that gambling is negative.
In particular, this view is common among religious groups. Others argue that the motivation is positive, that people enjoy
gambling and it is usually a harmless diversion. Because people enjoy it they continue to gamble in spite of losing.
Any discussion of the motivation of gambling usually starts with the natural comparison hole to life. Life is a gamble. Every
day, people are faced with situations which involve risk and chance. Gambling activities are extensions of the risk and chance
in life. The activity of gambling becomes play, it becomes a game. Gambling allows the person the choice of engaging in the
activity, the amount of risk and, in many cases, the stakes. The stakes are a necessary element for many people. It turns the bet
into not just an opinion but a commitment.
The concept of gambling mimicking the risk and chance of life has a parallel in the history section of this report. As noted in
that portion, gambling was a popular activity during the gold mining era. Mining was a high-risk enterprise that required
constant gambles by the participants. Considering that the people who accepted risk were drawn to mining, it is not surprising
that gambling would è a popular leisure activity. In a survey in Washington, those sampled reported that they gambled money,
or they were looking for excitement and a challenge. Modern theories of gambling motivation are quite a change from some
earlier theories. Early social scientists theorized that gambling was a way to deal with the pressures of industrialization. Karl
Marx grouped it with religion as an opiate for the masses. Psychoanalysts had a different view. Sigmund Freud analyzed
Fyodor Dostoyevsky's heavy gambling and diagnosed him as punishing himself for his oedipal urges.
Different groups are more inclined to gamble than others. A review of several studies on demographic factors which relate to
gambling behavior helps answer the question which who gambles the most. The following represents a synopsis of some of the
research findings:
• Gender. Men and women tend to have different preferences in their gambling. Men are more likely to gamble in games such as
blackjack and lotteries and women are more likely to engage in bingo and raffles.
• Age. There is a negative relationship between the two. That is, the older one becomes, the less likely she or he is to gamble.
• Social Class. There have been mixed results, with gambling behavior found to berelated to social class in some studies and not
related in others. Marital Status. Single, divorced, and separated people were found to be more likely to gamble than married
people.
• Community Size. Studies have found community size to be positively related to gambling propensity, meaning that residents of
big cities gamble more.
• Religion. Catholics were found to be more likely to gamble than Protestants and other religious groups. Catholics were also
found to be less likely to disapprove of gambling than other religious groups.
