# Talk:Edgar Matobato

I've removed the quotations of the PCIJ article since these constitute as copyright violations if they're taken directly from the source text. That said, the source has good usable information inside and has some stuff worth adding into the article. I'll work on that at some point soon. Chlod (say hi!) 10:02, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Thanks and also I seen claims that Edgar Matobato killed sex offenders at one time because police officers and former president Duterte ordered him to do that and I get what you mean it has to connect Matobato to a specific victim. Also some articles claimed Rodrigo Duterte himself at one time did the same stuff like one of his earliest alleged murders was that he or police officers  killed people he said were rapists before it became known as the Philippine Drug war and Davao Death Squad.

We can probably add in the info about Matobato's hits on sex offenders here, but for the Duterte ones, it ought to be placed somewhere else since this isn't really related to it. Unfortunately it doesn't sound like something we could put in Philippine drug war, and it seems like a WP:BLPVIO if that was put directly into Rodrigo Duterte.
