De Leon postCan you kill crime without spilling blood? I ask these questions as someone born and raised in Davao City, a place that, for better or worse, is synonymous with one man: Rodrigo Duterte. Over the years, I've seen people debate his extrajudicial killings, his war on drugs and the looming shadow of an ICC investigation. I spent a decade as the punching bag for a man whose mind had been hijacked by meth. But once meth got its claws in, the kind man I knew turned into a ticking time bomb.
