The Supreme Court today ordered the preventive suspension of Atty. Lorenzo G. Gadon and for him to show cause why he should not be meted with the ultimate penalty of disbarment in connection with his viral video uttering profanities against journalist Raissa Robles. Atty. Gadon’s preventive suspension from the practice of law is effective immediately and to last until lifted by the Court.
On December 15, 2021, a video of Gadon uttering profanities against Robles went viral in social media, where the former appeared exasperated by the fact that Robles called Ferdinand “Bong-Bong” R. Marcos a tax evader.
The public has urged the Court and the Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP) to discipline Gadon over his latest vulgar rant, saying that Atty. Gadon’s actions are not only an insult to Robles, but to the entire legal profession as well. The call of the public did not fall on deaf ears, and the Court immediately took action.
