Because of the shooting incident which took place in the school corridor, Duterte was almost expelled from school but was able to graduate eventually.<br /><br /><i>“Pero sa totoo lang, sanay ako magbaril ng tao. Mag-graduate na lang kami sa San Beda, may binaril akong tao,”</i> Duterte disclosed.<br /><br />(The truth is, I’m used to shooting people. I was about to graduate from San Beda when I shot someone.)<br /><br />Duterte disclosed that his verbally abusive classmate was pushing people in the corridor when he decided to fight back.<br /><br />He said: <i>“Mag-gagraduate na kami, binantayan ko siya, sabi ko, ‘Ito, may tama ito sa akin. Bago kami maghiwa-hiwalay sa San Beda, ginaganoon niya, bully, ‘Hoy, hoy, hoy,’ kasi nasa corridor kami, papasok. Sabi ko sa kanya, ‘Putang-ina mo kung tinamaan ako niyan, babarilin kita. Putang-ina, tinamaan nga ako sa ilong. Ahhh, bang! Expelled.”</i><br /><br />(We were about to graduate, I watched him and I said ‘I’ll teach this guy a lesson.’ Before we parted ways in San Beda he would say “Hoy, hoy, hoy” in the corridor before we enter. I told him “ *** if that hits me, I will shoot you. *** it hit me on the nose. Ahh, bang! Expelled.)<br /><br />Although he refused to give more details about the incident, Duterte said his victim survived.<br /><br />His shocking revelation during the campaign rally drew applause from the crowd.<br /><br />A report by Inquirer revealed that the law student Duterte was referring to was his Lex Talionis fraternity brod Octavio Goco. <br /><br />A fraternity member who refused to be identified said that San Beda College did not want to expel him yet did not allow him to join the graduation rites.<br /><br />However, another source from the fraternity told Inquirer said that the shooting incident was “hushed up” by the fraternity with the help of school authorities.<br /><br />Goco was admitted to the bar in 1975 and later migrated to the United Sates. He died in 2004.<br /><br />Duterte would later establish Lex Talionis chapter at Ateneo de Davao with fellow San Beda graduate Atty. Alberto Sipaco Jr.<br /><br /><b>--Mini, The Summit Express</b></div>
