This video is already the half part of the incident and thus, should not be a basis for the entire judgement of the case. In this video alone, we can clearly see who's winning and who's funny-looking. Let's not review this video anymore since I am certain that you have watched it a million times already.
Everything started with lost baggages. Cebu Pacific does this almost always with high-passenger traffic flights. They transfer some baggages to other flights so as not to overload the plane which may cause unwanted circumstances. Cebu Pacific was right in doing so, however, they should have informed the passengers that they did so. Better yet, the airline should have the means of informing their passengers that they do these transfers in order to avoid customer complaints. This is what Cebu Pacific's fault in the incident.
Then ikaw na na-imbyernang Claudine Barretto-Santiago, showcased complaint at its finest. We know for a fact that Claudine Barretto verbally assaulted the Cebu Pacific personnel. A lot of celebrities have dark souls and considering Claudine is one of them, it is no wonder that she yelled her guts out when she complained. She likewise threatened them of being fired. No matter how you sugarcoat it, she was going overboard with her actions. There were many people who witnessed how Cruella de Ville-like she was being, including one of the band members of Itchyworms Kelvin who, at the time, was tweeting real time (@itchykel).

With this incident alone, Claudine's part was already faulty. One may complain for the inconvenience the airline may have caused them but it is not right to verbally abuse nor threaten the people concerned. Mabuti sana kung trip lang ng Cebu Pacific yung baggage transfer but no, it was for the safety of the flight.
As a journalist, Ramon Tulfo was just doing his job. He was documenting a situation which was obviously indecent. Then Raymart allegedly tried to forcibly, let me repeat that, forcibly take the documentation means, which in the situation was Tulfo's cellphone. I am quite certain that it is not right to take something away from its owner by force. It is legal to take videos or photos whether public or private as long as you will not broadcast the media material along with malicious labels. Therefore, Ramon Tulfo was not doing anything wrong. Furthermore, Claudine and Raymart are celebrities, for crying out loud. It should have been normal for them to be photographed in a public place. I don't think they will ever have reacted that way if Claudine was complaining in a polite manner.
I assume that when Claudine finally found out that she was being documented, she joined Raymart with the attempt of taking Tulfo's cellphone. They were, in that scene, already doing something illegal. Therefore, fault in their part once more. If you were in Tulfo's shoes, what will you do? Exactly. You will defend yourself. As Raymart and Claudine tried to take Tulfo's cellphone by force, Tulfo did not want that to happen that's why, in theory, he incurred defensive offense towards the couple. Thus, Claudine's claim that Tulfo attacked her and partner Raymart which then led to the violent brawl.
In an interview, Raymart said that when he asked Tulfo what he was doing, Tulfo attacked him right away. This is extremely illogical. Nobody in his right mind will attack someone on spot after just being questioned. Obviously, by theory, Raymart was already trying to take Tulfo's cellphone which Tulfo rightfully defended. Meanwhile, in a different interview with a witness named "Anna", it was obvious that she was biased with her testimonies because her main concern ONLY was the fact that Claudine was attacked and hurt, disregarding the indecent actions of the actress and her faults first hand. I find it quite pathetic that "Anna" sounded like a feminist with her words because she was not mentioning Claudine's faults at all. She was just saying repeatedly how pitiful Claudine was for being attacked, considering that she was a woman. So is she saying that it was okay to get attacked if Claudine was a guy? If Claudine was a guy, I don't think this Anna will ever have anything to say nor would she have ever been interviewed.
On the other hand, the only thing people complain about Tulfo was for being arrogant (which is not illegal, by the way) and for claiming that he was attacked by seven people. Mind you, this claim is the only thing that Raymart and Claudine's attorney is trying to contradict - that Tulfo was not, in truth, got attacked by seven people. Even if they prove this claim wrong, the fact that the attack against him by more than two people was purposeful and agressive still remains solid, in contrast with Tulfo's attacks which was only to defend himself. Moreover, speaking on behalf of moral standards, Raymart, Claudine and other aggressors showed a rather shameful misconduct for assailing a senior citizen which was Tulfo.
It was also said that Raymart and Claudine did not want to sue Tulfo but Tulfo did, so they have no choice but to fight him in court eventually. Come on, we all know why they did not want to sue. BECAUSE THEY KNEW IT WAS THEIR FAULT and they will just end up losing the case if they do. Claudine also filed assault and child abuse charges on Tulfo as they claim that Tulfo begins the assault in front of her children, traumatizing them. Bullcrap. Even without the ruckus, she herself already "child abused" her children for maliciously screaming at the ground stewardess she was complaining to in front of them. Furthermore, upon questioning the ground attendant Claudine was heckling, she stated that it was her husband and entourage who had initiated the assault.
Both parties had their flaws but at the end of the day, for me, if these flaws are weighed, I definitely think it was more of Claudine and Raymart's fault. What do you think?
