00:00This is the story of a man who was arrested for a crime he did not commit.
00:08I'm sure you'll feel the same tonight here on Good News.
00:17This is not the prison you think of.
00:21Let's help them.
00:24Sir, how do you know if a criminal really committed a crime?
00:29In the movie, Green Bones, starring stars Dennis Trillo and Ruro Madrid,
00:35you'll learn about the story of goodness that comes out of prison.
00:41Something that also happens in real life.
00:44Why?
00:47Can goodness grow from a sinner?
00:54Prison.
00:56A word that we fear.
01:01But do you believe that inside this prison,
01:04instead of being painful, people are suffering?
01:10Good morning.
01:13We met Tatay Mooks, a 66-year-old PDL,
01:17or Person Deprived of Liberty, from Metro Manila District Jail in Taguig.
01:25Tatay Mooks was imprisoned in 2022 for smuggling.
01:29He only finished elementary school.
01:31His past life was a carpenter.
01:36So he was very surprised when one day,
01:40someone filed a complaint against him.
01:42Tatay faced the charges,
01:45and denied that he was the general manager of a smuggling case of illegal substances.
01:52I said, how can I be the general manager?
01:55I don't know anything about that.
01:56And I don't know how to write.
01:59I don't know how to speak English.
02:00How can I be in charge of such cases?
02:05Two months passed.
02:07He was transferred to Metro Manila District Jail in Taguig.
02:11And this is where he served as Tatay Tatayan to the younger PDLs.
02:17He was one of the respected PDLs.
02:20He was one of our older PDLs.
02:22He was listened to by other PDLs.
02:25I haven't seen him board our PDLs disciplinary board with violations.
02:32His behavior in the jail was good.
02:37Tatay Mooks spent two years in prison
02:41while his case was still on trial.
02:44Even though he can only do limited things in prison,
02:47he is still thankful for the little freedom he experienced.
02:52It's good here.
02:53You can walk around.
02:54You can sleep here.
02:57You can watch TV.
02:58It's just that you can't go out whenever you want to go home.
03:02Tatay Mooks left his wife and children at home.
03:07And because his house is far away,
03:09they can't always go out.
03:12His only dream is to go out of prison
03:15so that he can be with his family again,
03:18especially his youngest son who has special needs.
03:21He always cries to us,
03:23asking us to be good to him.
03:24He knows that I'm on vacation.
03:27When will your vacation end?
03:29I told him, it's almost here.
03:32I want to hug you.
03:35He prays that he can see his son again before it's too late.
03:40Because at his age,
03:42Tatay Mooks also has bad feelings.
03:46Just like his eyes.
03:48Our case with Tatay,
03:50we call him Terijun.
03:52In layman's term, Pugita.
03:54Usually, it's an irritation in the eyes
03:57that causes swelling.
03:59It can be UV radiation from the sun or wind.
04:04Aside from Terijun,
04:05we also saw a cataract on both eyes.
04:09Because he's in prison,
04:11he doesn't expect his eyes to be fixed.
04:17But the good news is,
04:18the police who take care of their PDLs,
04:21they have good food
04:23that can fulfill the prayers of the prisoners.
04:27Food, free haircut,
04:30or even bigger wishes,
04:32they are trying to fulfill.
04:34Our latest case,
04:35we conducted a BJMP fan run for a cause.
04:395, 4, 3, 2, 1!
04:50The proceeds from this
04:52is a big medical help to our two PDLs.
04:55Aside from the fan run,
04:57they also receive an art commission
05:00where they earn money
05:02to pay for the PDL cases.
05:05We also have a Likhalaya Project
05:07where our PDLs,
05:09the prisoners here in our prison,
05:11there are arts that are made through painting.
05:14And from here,
05:15we can use the earnings from painting
05:18to pay for the qualified PDLs.
05:21The initiative of their station
05:23was led by their warden, Jose.
05:26And this year, they just started it.
05:28In BJMP,
05:29we are directly affected by our PDLs.
05:33That's why it's different for each BJMP
05:35to be able to help or make changes
05:37to the former prisoners.
05:40It has a different impact on us
05:41when we return,
05:42we are thankful,
05:43we have a new life.
05:45That's what we don't have to pay
05:46to a BJMP officer.
05:48And this month,
05:49who will be the next beneficiary?
05:52It's Tatay Mooks!
05:54First of all,
05:55he doesn't have any infractions
05:57inside our prison.
05:58So, he has a good record.
06:00Second,
06:01he is familiar with our senior citizens of PDLs.
06:05Third,
06:06we saw his need
06:08to get treatment for his eyes
06:11so that he can clearly see
06:13his family visiting him.
06:16We are here in San Juan.
06:17And today,
06:18Tatay has a schedule for his surgery.
06:22For the expected reunion,
06:24join us in following Tatay's eye operation.
06:32Hello, ma'am.
06:33Are you saying goodbye?
06:34Yes, ma'am.
06:35He will have surgery.
06:36And of course,
06:37before the operation,
06:38this is the clear gift
06:40of good news for Tatay.
06:42The online reunion
06:44from his family
06:46to lessen his anxiety.
06:48After the operation,
06:50where will they bring you?
06:51Just there,
06:52we will go back there.
06:53You will go back there?
06:55Yes.
06:56Will you still talk to us?
06:57Yes.
06:58I love you.
06:59I love you too.
07:01I love you too.
07:02I love you too.
07:04Don't run away.
07:06Wait for me.
07:07Okay.
07:08I will wait for you to come back.
07:10Yes, wait for me.
07:13Tatay's eyes were examined.
07:16Our definitive management
07:18is the region extension
07:20or removal
07:21or removal
07:22or removal of the eyelid.
07:24We usually put a graft
07:26so that it won't open immediately.
07:28After this,
07:29they started disinfecting
07:31Tatay Moks' entire face and eyes
07:34before he went straight to the operating room.
07:42And after an hour,
07:46the operation was successful.
07:48The first week,
07:49we are strict
07:51that we put a graft every 2 hours.
07:54This is a big thing for Tatay Moks
07:57that while he is waiting for his next hearing,
08:00he can only see the family clearly
08:04when they walk by.
08:06It's enough to give him hope.
08:09Tatay Moks has a special child
08:13who is super close to him.
08:15I want them to see each other more clearly
08:18in the short time
08:19that they visit us in our prison.
08:21That's the best feeling
08:23when we receive a gift.
08:25It's a surprise.
08:26We don't ask for it.
08:30He's a good person.
08:31He sees things clearly.
08:33Who else could it be
08:35if not his family?
08:37Thank you so much.
08:39Without your help,
08:40it's hard for us.
08:44In life,
08:45let's not lose hope
08:47because every passing of time
08:50brings us to a clearer tomorrow.
08:56We bring to you
08:57the stories that will make your hearts feel better.
09:00Good evening,
09:01I am Vicky Morales.
09:02Free ride for those who are pregnant
09:05and are on dialysis
09:07provided by a taxi driver.
09:09I don't want to pay.
09:10No, it's okay.
09:11Don't worry about it.
09:12Seriously?
09:13Yes.
09:14It's a free emergency delivery.
09:16Is he coming back, Bags?
09:17I'm going to deliver.
09:22Surprise!
09:24Surprise!
09:29If there's a chance
09:30that I can go home every Christmas,
09:32I will choose to spend Christmas here.
09:36You can watch
09:37the emotional meeting
09:39of a brother and his cousin
09:42who haven't seen each other for almost 20 years.
09:45Give me a hug.
09:47Grab the dog.
09:55Some of us
09:56go to other countries
09:59to experience what we hope to experience
10:02but in exchange for a better life,
10:05is to return to our loved ones.
10:10That is why
10:11many of our fellow overseas Filipino workers
10:14or OFWs
10:17are waiting for the chance
10:19to return to their own country
10:21and hug their loved ones in the Philippines.
10:34This is one of the people we met, Erica,
10:37who is now living abroad.
10:41Tonight,
10:42she will be joined by Good News
10:44who was surprised by the love of her life
10:47when she suddenly went home.
10:49What will be their reaction?
10:55Erica's father has been an OFW in New Zealand for 5 years.
11:00Because of the hardship of being separated from his family,
11:03they decided to move to New Zealand
11:06so that they can live together.
11:08Life in New Zealand is good
11:11but there are times
11:13when you get homesick
11:15especially for the first time
11:17especially for the first month.
11:19But about the challenges,
11:21it's just an adjustment in the culture of New Zealand.
11:24They are happy
11:25to take care of their loved ones in the Philippines.
11:28One day,
11:29Erica misses her grandfather, Edwin,
11:33and grandmother, Charice.
11:34I am very close to my grandfather and grandmother.
11:37We live with them.
11:39My grandmother's brother, Mama May,
11:43they raised me for 20 years.
11:49It's been 2 years
11:50since Erica moved to New Zealand.
11:53That's why it's a big challenge
11:55for her to adjust in another country
11:57when they are not around.
11:59We are very close to Erica
12:01because we have been together since we were young.
12:04We have been together since we were young.
12:06When we were young,
12:07we used to play together.
12:09We used to play together
12:11when we were young.
12:13That's why when they first came back to the country,
12:16she planned a surprise reunion.
12:30Hello, Kapuso!
12:31We are here in Cebu
12:33with our fellow Filipinos.
12:35We are the fellow Filipinos!
12:38While on their trip to their house,
12:40the excitement in their faces can't be hidden.
12:44What Grandpa and Grandma know is
12:46that they will only get a simple return box.
12:50Hello, this is Od.
12:52Return box, I will deliver it.
12:56What are we waiting for?
12:58Let the surprise reunion begin!
13:02At first, Grandpa still has doubts.
13:10Surprise!
13:41If I get a chance to go home every Christmas,
13:45I will choose to spend Christmas here.
13:49No matter how many miles apart,
13:51no one can be equal
13:53to the love of a family.
13:57Whether there is a special occasion or not,
14:01let's give love to our loved ones
14:05while we are with them.
14:11Buntis or Dialysis?
14:13That's the answer of a taxi.
14:16It's free to ride in emergencies.
14:22They say, as long as the driver is a sweet lover.
14:27But here in the City of Pines,
14:29some drivers have become a culture.
14:32Not to be a sweet lover,
14:34but a kind-hearted driver
14:37who will give free rides.
14:41I will give you a ride.
14:43You're the one who posted it.
14:46It's an emergency.
14:51You don't have to pay.
14:52No, it's okay.
14:53I'll pay for the ride.
14:54Seriously?
14:55Yes.
14:56It's an emergency.
14:57It's free.
14:59But he's not the only one who deserves a ride.
15:02It's P77, ma'am.
15:04But I don't want it, ma'am.
15:06He will also give free rides
15:08to his passengers.
15:12It has become normal for me to help.
15:15That's what my parents always say.
15:17As long as you can help,
15:18you should help.
15:20They say,
15:21if the driver is in an emergency case,
15:24he will give free rides.
15:26I'll give you a ride.
15:28You're welcome.
15:29He said he will give free rides.
15:31I said,
15:32why would I give free rides?
15:33I need help.
15:36That's how it started.
15:38One of Dominic's free rides
15:40was Gabriel, a Grade 6 student.
15:43I gave him a ride.
15:44He got a taxi.
15:46Then, he was the one who picked up Ading.
15:49I gave him a ride to the hospital.
15:54Gabriel was in an emergency
15:56and he sprained his foot.
15:58That day,
16:00he had to go back to the hospital
16:02for a check-up.
16:05We were talking inside the taxi.
16:07He asked me,
16:09how's your son?
16:12I told him, he's in a bad condition.
16:14I was touched when he told me
16:17that he also plays drums in the church.
16:20When they arrived at the hospital,
16:22Gabriel received good news from Dominic.
16:26When we arrived at the hospital,
16:28he told me not to give free rides.
16:31They were very thankful
16:33because they were able to save money
16:35on the ride.
16:36I was very happy.
16:37I was thinking,
16:38I didn't know there was such a thing.
16:40It's hard to find someone like him.
16:42But Dominic's help
16:45to the people going to the hospital
16:47was very helpful.
16:48He was in Dubai with his wife
16:51when he got sick.
16:54He got sick there
16:56because of the virus policy.
16:58He needed to go back to the Philippines
17:00to recover.
17:02But since he was just starting his job,
17:05Dominic had almost no savings.
17:09He said it's good
17:10that there are good people
17:12who helped him
17:13and took care of him.
17:16The good thing about this
17:17is that my colleagues at work
17:19are the ones I didn't expect
17:21that they were able to save money
17:24just to help me.
17:27Because he experienced
17:28a good heart,
17:29he became a role model
17:31to take care of the people
17:33in need.
17:35I can't thank them enough
17:37for their help.
17:38I can also help others.
17:42Meanwhile, Gabriel
17:43wanted to see again
17:45the people who were good to him.
17:49I hope I get a chance
17:51to see Gab again
17:52so I can at least know
17:54how he's doing now.
18:02Hey Gab!
18:03Hey brother!
18:05How are you?
18:06I'm good, brother.
18:07How's your foot?
18:08It's recovering a bit.
18:11Just continue with your church work.
18:13Gabriel also has a little surprise
18:16for his brother Dominic.
18:18Brother!
18:20This is for you.
18:21Oh!
18:24Oh!
18:25You even brought it.
18:27Thank you for the free taxi.
18:30Can I see what's inside?
18:32Yes, brother.
18:33This is for you.
18:35This is nice.
18:37It's for massaging.
18:38This is for your job, brother.
18:40Our kind-hearted taxi driver
18:43was accompanied by our team
18:45to deliver
18:46and spread good news.
18:51These nurses were chosen.
18:54How's your duty, ma'am?
18:56It's okay.
18:57It's tiring.
18:58It's tiring?
18:59Are there a lot of patients, ma'am?
19:01There are a lot, sir.
19:04It's good that you're here, ma'am.
19:06You're the ones taking care
19:08of our patients, ma'am.
19:11And when the nurses
19:12arrived at their destination,
19:15How much is it, brother?
19:16It's P77, ma'am.
19:18But it's okay, ma'am.
19:20It's not only the patients
19:21who get a free ride.
19:22Even the nurses
19:24should also get a free ride.
19:26Okay?
19:27Really, sir?
19:28Yes, ma'am.
19:29It's true.
19:30Yes, ma'am.
19:31Thank you, sir.
19:32Thank you so much.
19:33Yes, ma'am. You're welcome.
19:35We're happy, sir.
19:36Because no matter what,
19:37because of our hard work,
19:39there are people who remember
19:40that we got a free ride.
19:41No matter what.
19:43Oh my, you deserve it!
19:45It's nice to help others.
19:47When you see the people
19:49you're helping,
19:50you're happy.
19:51It's like we're the ones who helped.
19:53We're happy about it.
19:56Like Dominic,
19:57who was inspired by his heart,
20:00we, Kapuso,
20:02are we also ready
20:03to become real-life superheroes?
20:09Kapuso,
20:10when was the last time
20:11you saw your brother?
20:14Yes,
20:15in Arnold's house.
20:16In this viral video,
20:18the man
20:19seems to be looking for something
20:21in a house.
20:22Where do they live?
20:24Can you call them?
20:25Are they there?
20:26Yes.
20:27And when he entered,
20:29he saw the emotional meeting
20:31of a brother
20:33and his cousin
20:35whom he hasn't seen
20:36for almost 20 years.
20:39Saul!
20:40Yes?
20:41News!
20:43Hey!
20:44Where are you?
20:45It's just me.
20:49How are you?
20:54It's just me.
20:56It's okay.
20:57It's good to see you.
21:01I miss you.
21:02Come here.
21:03I'll look for you.
21:04What's the story
21:05behind this meeting?
21:08Come here.
21:11Let's find out
21:12here in Good News.
21:15I miss you.
21:16Come here.
21:17Come here.
21:21In Olongapo City,
21:22we met Arnulfo,
21:23the brother
21:24visited by Angelo
21:27who lives
21:28in Damam, Saudi Arabia.
21:31Before they became
21:32two worlds apart,
21:33the brother and sister
21:34when they were young,
21:36they were always together.
21:39When I was young,
21:40he was always like
21:41a father to me
21:42because our father
21:44and mother
21:45were always abroad.
21:46They are four siblings
21:48but the closeness
21:49of the brother
21:50and the sister
21:51is different.
21:52He is the one
21:53we love the most
21:54because he is our brother.
21:55One day,
21:56he had a small fight
21:57with his brother
21:58and I took him
21:59to school.
22:00When Angelo
22:01had a problem
22:02in his love life,
22:03the brother
22:04was the one
22:05who took care of him.
22:06The brother
22:07was always there
22:08for him.
22:09When I was in school,
22:10I became a mosquito
22:11because he never
22:12left me alone.
22:13If I got dirty,
22:14he would change my clothes
22:15right away.
22:16I would wash
22:17his clothes
22:18because he would
22:19go to work.
22:20Sometimes,
22:21I would cook
22:22for him.
22:23Their favorite
22:24bonding day
22:25with the brother
22:26was dancing
22:27and singing.
22:29But because
22:30they had to
22:31get along in life,
22:32Arnulfo
22:33went to
22:34different countries
22:35to work.
22:37He became a driver
22:38in the Philippines,
22:39an air-con technician,
22:41and a newspaper
22:42delivery boy
22:43in other places.
22:45It was hard
22:46for him to go far
22:47from his family.
22:49But the saddest thing
22:50was that
22:51when Angelo
22:52didn't say anything,
22:54he would go to
22:55Saudi Arabia
22:56to work.
22:58My sister
22:59told me,
23:00Brother,
23:01we don't have
23:02money anymore.
23:03That's what she said.
23:17I told you,
23:18there's no forever.
23:30Do you want to
23:31be together
23:32in the future?
23:33Yes.
23:35No matter how old
23:37we are,
23:38we will be together
23:39again.
23:43Since Angelo
23:44went abroad,
23:45the two
23:46lost their
23:47communication.
23:48In Diego,
23:49we were not allowed
23:50to use our cellphones,
23:52laptops,
23:53or computers.
23:54For about
23:55two years,
23:56because social media
23:57was not that good.
23:58A few years
23:59passed
24:00and Angelo
24:01became busy
24:02and had
24:03his own life.
24:05When I came back
24:06from vacation,
24:07it was just
24:08for a short time.
24:09So I went to
24:11my parents' house
24:12in Bolina.
24:15But one day,
24:16when Arnulfo
24:17met his sister
24:19by accident,
24:21that's when
24:22Angelo found out
24:23that his brother
24:25had been struck
24:26three times.
24:28Sometimes,
24:29my brother
24:30doesn't solve
24:31his problems.
24:32Sometimes,
24:33he hides it
24:34so that we won't
24:35worry.
24:36Yes,
24:37Arnold's wife.
24:38That's why
24:39Angelo planned
24:40to go back
24:41to the Philippines
24:42this year.
24:43They're here?
24:44Yes.
24:45His brother,
24:46Arnulfo,
24:47was the first
24:48to visit
24:49and surprise him.
24:50At first,
24:51Arnulfo
24:52didn't know
24:53the voice
24:54of his brother.
24:55But when he saw
24:56Arnulfo,
24:57his emotions
24:58overflowed.
25:02What's wrong?
25:09It's okay.
25:10I'm fine.
25:14I miss you.
25:15Come here.
25:16I'll take care of you.
25:17He got sick,
25:18but
25:19his kindness
25:20and concern
25:21for me
25:22are still there.
25:23He's the typical father
25:24who comes to me.
25:27But because
25:28he had to go back
25:29to his own life,
25:30Angelo
25:31went back
25:32to Saudi Arabia.
25:33You're making me cry again.
25:35But even though
25:36he's abroad,
25:37his surprise
25:38for his brother
25:39is still not over.
25:41How are you,
25:42Tor?
25:43I'm fine.
25:44How are you?
25:45I miss you.
25:46I miss you too,
25:47Tor.
25:48I'm sorry
25:49that you can't go home
25:50because
25:51you know
25:52that you have
25:53a lot of work.
25:54Take care
25:55of yourself.
25:58Especially you,
25:59Tor.
26:00Especially your
26:01idol,
26:02right?
26:03I'm crying,
26:04Tor.
26:05It's like
26:06I fell in love with you,
26:07Tor.
26:08Grow up
26:09so that you can
26:10drive again.
26:11You really want to drive,
26:12right?
26:13Don't worry.
26:15I'll be fine.
26:17Just relax.
26:19Do you remember,
26:20Tor,
26:21before I left,
26:22you told us
26:23that you requested me.
26:24Yes.
26:26Do you have a cell phone?
26:28Give it to me.
26:29Yes, I do.
26:30Because of this,
26:32I will give you
26:33a new cell phone.
26:37Really?
26:45You really like surprises.
26:51We love you,
26:52Tor.
26:54Love you,
26:55Tor.
26:56We got a lot,
26:57Jags.
26:58You always video chat me.
26:59Of course,
27:00Tor.
27:01That's not all.
27:03Angelo has a gift
27:04for his brother.
27:07Don't let me down,
27:08Jan.
27:09I don't want you
27:10to be like me.
27:11It's hard.
27:12Love you,
27:13Tor.
27:14Give me a hug.
27:15Love you,
27:16Tor.
27:19That's why,
27:20my dears,
27:21have you not seen
27:22your siblings
27:23for a long time?
27:25Hey!
27:27It's just me.

27:31for them
