[edit] My Profile

The name of this writer is Florentino V. Floro, Jr. Born in Manila on November 5, 1953, he hails from Calvario, Meycauayan City, Bulacan. The name of Meycauayan came from the Tagalog may kawayan (lit. "a place full of bamboos") alluding to the presence of large bamboo groves in the town. It was founded in 1578 by the Franciscan Catholic missionaries. Floro lived in Bulacan province where the historic Barasoain Church is located and produced notable Filipinos:

Florentino V. Floro is of Filipino and Chinese ancestry.

He is currently a citizen of the Republic of the Philippines.

The eldest of five brothers of (both deceased) Florentino C. Floro and Milagros Velasquez, in his youth, Floro was an accomplished student, graduating with honors in both elementary and high school levels. Florentino floro graduated elementary (1965) from St. Mary's College of Meycauayan, high school (1969) from St. Vincent's Seminary, Karuhatan, Valenzuela City, and college, Bachelor of Arts, pre-divinity and philosophy, from the Ateneo de Manila University. He earned the degree of Bachelor of Laws (1982) at the Ateneo School of Law, with FULL SECOND HONORS. He made the 10 years unbroken record of 91% in criminal law review under Dean Antonio L. Gregorio. He placed 12th in the 1983 Philippine Bar Examination, with a bar rating of 87.55% in one of the hardest examination, where only 21.3% passed.

On his natal day November 5, 1997, his "gabays" or spirit guides, the 3 angels or dwarves ordered him to cleanse the Philippine judiciary, by applying with the Judicial and Bar Council for the position of RTC Judge. He was duly appointed RTC, NCJR Judge of Br. 73, Malabon City, the northern section of Manila, on November 4/5, 1998, his birthday, at the age of 45, as the youngest RTC NCJR Judge. Barely 6 months from his inaugural session on January 5, 1999, he was INDEFINITELY suspended on July 20, 1999 (the longest judicial suspension in world history, until the day he) was separated on April 6, 20007, fined 40,000 pesos (US$775), but paid 3 years back wages by the Supreme Court of the Philippines. The three-year investigation found that he’d claimed he could see into the future and admitted that he consulted privately with mystical magic dwarfs. He argued that his personal beliefs were being questioned. He told investigators that the invisible dwarfs – Armand, Luis and Angel – helped him carry out “healing sessions” during breaks in his chambers.[1]

Alfredo Benipayo signed Judge Floro's longest indefinite preventive suspension (Memorandum / Recommendation) in world judicial history on July 20, 1999, effective until he was separated from service and paid on April 6, 2006. Fr. Rolando de La Rosa, O.P., UST Rector, wrote in the Manila Bulletin: "Benipayo had chronic cough that bothered him for years. At first the best doctors thought the trouble was with his lungs. They found out later that it was his heart. He was suffering from CAD (coronary artery disease). His heart was clogged." On Feb. 21, 2001, Benipayo underwent angioplasty surgery 5 days after his appointment as Commission on Elections Chair.[page A2, saturday, March 24, 2001, Philippine Daily INQUIRER, and March 15, 2001 Manila Bulletin, Editorial]. On February 22, 2008, 3 p.m., Alfredo Benipayo (Dean of the faculty of civil law at the University of Santo Tomas) was hospitalized in Iloilo City's Saint Paul's Hospital. At the middle of his lecture before the Integrated Bar of the Philippines Iloilo Chapter in a hotel, he collapsed.[2]

Florentino Floro, the dwarf judge lost his final appeal (August 11, 2006) to keep his job, with the Supreme Court of the Philippines' 75-page ruling - that Florentino's "dalliance" with Luis, Armand and Angel demonstrated he had a "medically disabling condition of the mind" which made him "unfit to discharge the functions of his office" and accordingly could "erode the public's esteem of the judiciary" and made it an "object of ridicule." The Court was worried regarding Judge Floro’s belief and claim that as the Philippines' angel of death, he could inflict illnesses, deaths and accidents to cleanse the judiciary. Judge Floro claimed special powers as “the No 5 psychic in the country”. In a variation of dress-down Fridays, Judge Floro changed from blue court robes to black each Friday “to recharge his psychic powers”. Florentino Floro claimed to write in trance, and he had, he insisted, “been seen by several people to have been in two places at the same time”, Bilocation. Floro had made a covenant with “three dwarf friends named Luis, Armand and Angel”, who would, unseen by others, provide him with assistance in court (presumably when lawyers were unable to provide page references in the tons of evidence)".[3] [4][5]

Citing equity, the Court paid Floro 3 years back wages and ruled that he was not insane, but merely affected by psychosis which appeared to “cloud his judgment” and so undermined his competence and objectivity. Justice Minita Chico-Nazario concluded that psychic phenomena, “even assuming such exist”, has no place in jurisprudence. On December 5, 2006 Floro was awarded "Judge of the Year" by The Times - "A chilli-hot year for whiny garbage, David Pannick, QC, presides over the memorable legal appearances of 2006"[6]

On December 6, 2006, Floro testified in the Senate of the Philippines to oppose the confirmation of former Philippine Chief Justice Hilario Davide, Jr. for the post of permanent representative, United Nations. Davide was by-passed, that is, he failed to be confirmed but was issued an ad interim appointment.[7] On January, 2007, the Supreme Court of the Philippines dismissed with finality the August 30, 2006 landmark Disbarment administrative suit filed by Floro against Chief Justice Hilario Davide, Jr. and 9 other top court officials.[8] On July 12, 2007, the Court finally denied Floro's final appeals to be reinstated with indirect contempt of court warning against further filing of any pleading.[9][10] On November 5, 2007, Floro asked the Court to order its Clerk to issue entry of judgment or the certificate of finality on the non-reinstatement of the jobless dwarf judge.[11]. 3 days later or on November 8, Floro's counsel of record in the dwarf case, Rene Saguisag suffered dire accident with 7 broken ribs and his wife Dulce Saguisag died forthwith.[12] On November 9, 2007, Commission on Elections legal division chief Dalaig was gunned down.[13] And on November 13, 2007, the Batasang Pambansa bombing caused death of 6 and Congressman Pryde Henry Teves' face was badly burned. [14] On November 20, 2007[15] the court noted without action or did not act on Floro's final motion. On November 20, 2007, the Court of Appeals (Philippines) dismissed Floro's disbarment case against the Court of Appeals Dirty Dozen and Justice Romeo Barza.[16][17] On March 27, 2007, Atty. Carlos M. Flores was appointed by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo as new Judge of Br. 73, RTC, Malabon to replace Judge Floro. On April 4, 2008[18], Judge Floro appealed to the Supreme Court of the Philippines to annul the appointment on constitutional grounds since it was issued more than 90 days from November 20, 2007.[19]

Judge Floro, on April 2, 2008 received the Supreme Court of the Philippines Resolution in A.C. No. 7663, which dismissed his disbarment administrative case against Senator Miriam Santiago.[20] On April 14, 2008, Miriam Defensor-Santiago was injured when she slipped and bumped her head during the birthday party of her husband, Narciso, in Mandaluyong City. She underwent surgery requiring 3 stitches on her head.[21]

Floro's interests are horse riding, hiking, travel, seeing movies, and his favorites are Superman, James Bond, Artificial Intelligence and The Count of Monte Cristo. His favorite music is Impossible Dream, Ave Maria, Candle in the Wind, and Lion King. His favorite Books are Le Petit Prince by Antoine de St Exupery and The Life of St. Therese of Lisieux.

This writer also contributes to the Wikipedia and expresses his views in his blogs LUIS, Armand, Angel and Judge Florentino V. Floro & ANGEL OF DEATH, LUIS ARMAND and ANGEL. He is a practicing Roman Catholic; a mild environmentalist; and a strong advocate of healthy living.

  • Ripley's Believe It or Not! portrayed him, to wit: "Hello judge..." Florentino Floro, a Philippines judge, was relieved of duty in April 2006 after claiming to have seen the future and to be able to communicate with magic dwarves!"[22]
  • Amazing James Randi, (who was operated angioplasty) in his "Filipino Justice" article, created a picture of Floro's 3 dwarves.[23]
  • Wall Street Journal reported that "for consulting his 3 wee friends Floro lost his job but became a celebrity, using a little elfin magic."[24]
  • In Rush (band)'s Counterparts Message Board, Floro's "The Earth is not only for humans and animals" on his 3 dwarves' thread held the record since 1995 of 1,345 replies and 38,870 views as of December 17, 2007.[30]

[edit] Judge Floro's First Book on Philippine Dwarves, LUIS, Armand and Angel

  • Floro wrote his 400-pages[32] First Book[33]on Philippine Dwarfs' - ISBN 9789716916195; [34]"World-famous Mystic Armand, LUIS and Angel[35], the Three Dwarves MEET THE JUDGE,Psychic and Healing Martyr or Filipino[36][37]Justice".[38]. His second book, "LUIS, Armand and Angel Meet Fortune-telling Judge" (900 pages)[39] REVEALS the real triune holy angels, more deeply.[40]

[edit] The Images of the Dwarves and the Angel of Death

Florentino Floro (of Chinese origin) believes that a) Wikipedia is a very colorful / moving encyclopedia, and b) it / its articles / user pages - must have pictures / images, since Chinese wisdom teaches that images are worth 10,000 words. Without these gallery images, Wikipedia readers would not be able comprehend the meaning, significance and definition of a) the Philippine Angel of Death (who religiously prays Psalm 109 and Psalm 73) and b) the Filipino jobless dwarf judge in pretend world.
