Dumpit’s ex-wife: ‘Operation was overkill’

Scene of the Crime Operatives (SOCO) gather evidence near the sprawled body of SPO1 Adonis Dumpit who was killed in an alleged shootout with agents of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) on Wednesday morning, June 27, 2018 in Barangay San Isidro, Tagbilaran City. The multi-awarded cop, who was the face of Cebu City’s war on illegal drugs and criminality when he was still the close-in aide of Cebu City Mayor Tomas Osmeña, was ironically killed as he was allegedly about to deliver “stocks” of shabu (inset) to his clients in Tagbilaran City.

It was an overkill.

This was how Josephine described the operation that killed SPO1 Adonis Dumpit.

Although she has not read the autopsy report of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) yet, Josephine said that she saw the extent of the damage on Dumpit’s body.

Although they have been separated for 11 years, she said that she is certain that Dumpit has not been into the illegal drugs business.

She said though their marriage has been annulled, she should still have the right to lay her ex-husband to rest.

Cebu City councilors Dave Tumulak and Margot Osmeña were first to visit Dumpit’s wake.

Mayor Tomas Osmeña is expected to be in the funeral chapel anytime this afternoon.
