"You call me a slut, a woman of the world. Yes, I am a woman. I am a
strong woman who will not allow an insecure man to destroy her," De
Lima said in a speech.
"I have nothing to apologize for, or feel ashamed of because I have
killed no one and I have not engaged in, or benefited from, any illegal
activity. I have not made other people suffer out of personal grievance
or malice," she added.
De Lima said she filed the petition for writ of habeas data before the SC to "exorcise my demon," obviously referring to Duterte.
"First, I am here to exorcise my demon. He wears a crown and sits on a throne now, but that should not shield him from being held responsible for launching a personal vendetta against one of his own citizens, just to vindicate perceived personal slights his manhood suffered seven years ago. His lofty position should not be used to perpetuate his personal evil designs against one woman," she said.
"Ang paglapit ko sa Korte Suprema ang paraan ko para iwaksi ang demonyong pilit ginagawang bangungot ang buhay ko."
De Lima said she will continue fighting for her innocence, knowing she will be vindicated in the end.
"I always believe na andyan naman ang Diyos. Hindi natutulog ang Diyos. The vindication may not happen now, in the next few months, in the next few years especially that this President is still in power but time will come na lalabas ang katotohanan. Whether or not nasa kulungan na ako by that time I'm sure vindication will come," she said.
In her petition, de Lima cited many specific occasions wherever Duterte has repeatedly subjected her to crude personal verbal attacks, that allegedly concerned the wrongful and unlawful assortment and publication of her alleged personal affairs.

“These verbal attacks and threats leveled against me are not covered by
presidential immunity from suit because they are not the official acts
of a President. They constitute unlawful, unofficial conduct that have
nothing to do with his duties,” the petition read.
De lima argued these personal verbal attacks and threats profaned Republic Acts 6713 and 9710, conjointly referred to as the Code of Conduct and moral Standards for Public officers and workers and royal charter of girls, severally.
She aforesaid Duterte couldn't invoke legal immunity from suit to counter her petition as a result of they're not the official acts of a President.
