Ted Failon Wife Shooting Rumors

SUSPECT BA SYA?


ano sa tingin nyo?


TV Patrol World news anchor and veteran broadcast journalist Ted Failon’s wife was shot in the head by still unidentified suspects inside their house in Tierra Pura in Tandang Sora, Quezon City today. Trinidad Arteche Etong, 44, was declared brain-dead by physicians at the New Era Hospital after sustaining a bullet wound in her right temple.The slug went through the side of her head, according to police reports.

ABS-CBN, Ted Failon’s home network issued this official statement to the media: “We appeal to everyone to please respect the privacy of Mr.Ted Failon and his family. His wife is fighting for her life.” This is after reports came out that the couple were involved in a “shooting incident.” Apparently the statement was made before the latest report that Ms. Thelma Etong is now brain-dead. Ted Failon’s real name is Mario Teodoro Failon Etong.

Rumors then spread like wildfire through the net and text messages that Mr. Ted Failon had something to do with the incident. As of presstime, TV Patrol World is now broadcasting on air with nary a word about the Ted Failon and his wife shooting incident. Meanwhile, it’s rival early evening news program, 24 Oras, featured the incident prominently albeit with still sketchy details.

UPDATE 2: TV Patrol World eventually covered the story and gave important details which basically shows that Ted Failon’s wife committed suicide, based on the letter found in their household. The Quezon City SOCO Police meanwhile said they are not yet ruling the shooting of the wife of television news anchor Ted Failon as a suicide despite the discovery of an apparent suicide note because of “inconsistencies in the statements” of Ted Failon.

Also, Ted Failon reportedly told police that the alleged suicide note was received by him last night when his wife left with her sister. They also noticed that although the entry wound was on Mrs. Failon’s left temple, the .380 caliber pistol she was shot with was on her right side. Police also observed that there are no bullet markings where a slug could have ricocheted in the bathroom, the alleged scene of the incident.

Ted Failon on his part issued this statement:

“Hindi ko na tinapos and aking programa sa dzMM kaninang umaga matapos kong makausap and aking asawa sa telepono. Kaya umuwi ako kaagad at natagpuan kong nakakandado ang pinto ng banyo. Pinabuksan ko ang pinto at natagpuan ko and aking asawa na duguan kung kaya’t itinakbo ko sya kaagad sa ospital [I did not finish my program at dzMM this morning after I spoke to my wife. So I went home immediately and found the door of the bathroom locked. I had the door opened and I found my wife bloody which is why I rushed her immediately to the hospital.”

The police are also suspicious why the said incident was not reported immediately. They also said that upon reaching Failon’s house, they discovered that the scene of the incident had already been cleaned by the househelp, which he said could constitute a violation of Presidential Decree 1829, or obstruction of justice. The househelp, Glen and Frida, claimed no one had ordered them to clean the site.

Witnesses in the New Era Hospital saw Failon leaving the hospital emergency room around 1 p.m. in a bloodied polo shirt and wearing a surgical mask to avoid identification by policemen and reporters posted outside. He then left on a blue Pajero with plate number NPE-293.

The gardener of a neighbor of Failon’s said that before noon, he saw the broadcaster in a bloodied shirt as he was about to board the Pajero in his garage with another woman crying. But he did not see Failon’s wife.

UPDATE 3: Ted Failon has undergone a paraffin test, an archaic way to determine if a person has fired a gun recently. Ted is also set to be arrested anytime soon for Obstruction of Justice because of the cleanup of the alleged crime scene before the police could even get to the scene of the crime

whewww... grabe...

daming plot holes ng story nila kaya automatic na suspect silang lahat sa bahay.. the only one that can tell the real story is now brain dead..

all i know Ted Failon is in big shite now.. hopefully his mother studio wont cover up the truth..

ironically, the one's who should be telling the headlines, is now the big news..

so simple yet so tragic..

reason why some people have their doubts about this case... the video coverage by his home network looks like edited to mask out..

oo kuya sa tingin ko suspek talaga sya dun palang sa lokasyon ng baril nakakaduda na kasi sa kaliwang kamay ginamit yung baril tapos napunta bigla sa bandang kanang sahig nung mahulog, at saka kaduda duda din yung nilinis ng mga alila yung crime scene parang may sabwatan na

tama si sir, suspek pa lang naman, hindi naman ibig sabihin guilty na sya sa nangyari, mangingibabaw din ang katotohanan, pero ang hindi ko lang gusto kung bakit kailangan pang gawing exclusive sa abscbn yung mga informasyon sa imbestigasyon.

why would ted kill his wife in the first place???

feeling ko .. suicide dapat yan... kaso siguro mey nakakita.. kaya nakielam ..kaya ayun .. nabaril sya sa brain..

un interview sa sister in law.. puro ANO ang sagot... ano ba un.. hindi malinaw.
it could also be the sister ... parang.. hindi malinaw ang statement nya .. mashadong magulo..

Hahaha eh ako rin naguluhan sa sagot mo eh.... ...

For me i think suicide talaga and masyado lang naging controbersyal feeling ko nga merong galit kay Ted..kasi masyadong nagiging Over acting ang mga police..ang dami namang ganyan pero wala silang paki at di malutas lutas. At ito naman na ang sabi talaga ng family is nagpakamatay yun ang di nila tinatantanan...at pinaghuhuli lahat kinasuhan at piniplit na umamin na sila pumatay..ay ang gulo nga..hehehe..

hay.... grabe na tung topic na to kahit sa office hehehehe....hindi ako against kay ted, at hindi pa ako naniniwala na suicide nga yun,dahil maaga pa, pero sana masagot na ang tanong nang malinaw at nakakakumbinse, kase makakapagisip ka rin talaga kung bakit nilinis ang crime scene, ginalaw mga ibedensya, hindi nireport agad, bkit hindi tugma ang mga pahayag ng mga suspect, ano kaya ang motibo talaga sa trahedyang yun?..... abangan...
