Supreme Court Fines Homosexual Judge
THE Supreme Court has penalized a Municipal Trial Court (MTC) judgein Bayugan, Agusan del Sur who admitted that he is a homosexual and could not be intimate with his wife unless he imagined he was with another man.
In a decision promulgated on February 8, 2012 and penned by Associate Justice Antonio Carpio, the Court Second Division found Judge Eliseo Campos guilty of simple misconduct and fined him P20,000 “to be deducted from whatever benefits, if any, that he is still entitled to after his resignation from the judiciary.”
“If there is none, respondent is ordered to pay directly the fine of P20,000,” the ruling said.
Concurring with the ruling were Associate Justices Arturo Brion, Jose Portugal Perez, Maria Lourdes
Sereno and Bienvenido Reyes.
