Pahayag ni Janno, “My father was living with me, so I was taking care of him. So when it happened, I was sleeping in the next room.
“My driver knocked on my door, and shouting, ‘Daddy mo! Ang daddy mo!’ So we saw him.
“So immediately, ang nandun was our barangay captain who called both police and an ambulance, because he [Ronaldo] was still breathing.
“He was still alive. Despite... so first to arrive was a police officer from the nearby station.
“Siya yung nag-video. So, nung vini-video niya, sabi ko, ‘Teka! Ano yan?!’ ‘For evidence po, for evidence.’
“Naisip ko, parang SOP naman, di ba? So sige, sige na lang.
“And then, ambulance came and we brought him to the hospital where he stayed alive pa for quite some time actually.
“And then he passed. Magbabayad pa lang kami ni Bing, hinila na ako ng pulis to go back to the crime scene, to the scene.”
Ang nagsagawa ng imbestigasyon ay ang Quezon City Police District (QCPD).
Ang tinutukoy ni Janno na "Bing" ay ang asawang si Bing Loyzaga na nasa mediacon din. Andoon din ang kapatid ni Janno na si Melissa Gibbs.

Ka-team ni Atty. Kapunan bilang counsel for Janno sina Sonya Margarita Benemerito-Castillo, Francheska Laurent L. Ferraren, Alyssa R. Zarraga, at Randy C. Bernardino.
CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION
Pagpapatuloy ni Janno, “Sabi ko, ‘Hindi ba puwedeng magbayad muna ako ng…’ But we went, I went. I complied, we went back to the scene.
“Nakalagay naman sa report nila na to process. To process. They were… five or more people.
“I think so, ako yun. Kasi, the process daw of the crime scene. Andito yung basyo, tapos may tama dito sa wall, ganyan,” pagmumuwestra ni Janno.
“Tatlo kami. So me… we had two units kasi. In that unit was me, my dad, our driver, and a kasambahay especially for my dad. Nakatutok sa dad ko.
“So the three of us, after that, after they processed the scene, went to Karingal where I made my statement, my written statement.
“And then after that, we went to a paraffin test. Kaming tatlo. Kaming tatlo — ako, yung driver, and the kasambahay.
“During that time, remember this is the same day. This is the same night.
"Bing texted me that the full statement, and including our address, and my full statement of the pangyayari, was circulating already.
“Nagli-leak na. So same day pa lang yun,” pagkunot-noo ni Janno.
“So I told the police I was with. Sabi ko, ‘Ano to?!’ Ang sagot sa akin, ‘Naku, Sir! Di natin maiiwasan yan, e! Kasi, pinapasa talaga namin sa mga superior at sa iba’t ibang ano. Hindi talaga maiiwasan.’”

LEAK OF SENSITIVE VIDEO
Bumaling si Janno sa katabing si Atty. Kapunan, “Tama ba yun, Attorney? Hindi maiiwasan?”
Umiling si Atty. Kapunan, “Hindi tama yun. Kasi, kapag ongoing investigation, dapat walang leakage.
“Meron tayong privacy ng family. Meron din tayong Confidential Data Information. So mishandling talaga.
“Let Janno detail… remember, this is the same day. This is the very same day, na in total shock pa ang family and nadagdagan pa ng insensitivity ng police, 'no.”
Napatango si Janno, “Yeah. Yung sinend sa akin ni Bing, siyempre she was concerned about… one, na-divulge na kung ano yung nangyari, which puwede namang hindi namin ikinuwento na.
“And also our address… which endangered us. Kasi nandun yung address, full address namin.
“And then, so I told them, sabi nga nila, ‘Hindi maiiwasan yan. Kasi, pinapasa-pasa namin yan sa iba-ibang division and staff.’
“Ahhh habang nagpa-paraffin test ako, that was on the second floor of SOCO, I think, that’s where you do the paraffin test.
“Yung window, ano e… half smoked yung window. Aba! May camera crew dun na nakaganun sa second floor, na nakunan ako na nagpa-paraffin.
“So, nagalit yung doktora na nagpa-paraffin. Sabi niya, ‘Sino yun? Habulin niyo,’ ganun-ganun.
“Hinabol nila. Bumalik, ‘Wala na po, e.’ Sabi ng doktora, ‘Sinong tao sa ibaba?’ ‘Wala po. Wala pong tao sa ibaba.’
“So anong klaseng police station yon? Walang bantay… Kahit sino, puwedeng umakyat na lang? Walang paalam. Anong klase yun?”

Natigilan sandali si Janno, bago nagpatuloy, “And then... so OK... remember they processed the scene, di ba, on the same day.
“Mga five people. Yun ang nakalagay sa report, e. Processed the scene. On the same day. After nine days, they text to retrieve the slug. The slug of the bullet.
“Hindi niyo nagawa yun nung araw na yun? And dami niyo, ah?! Anong prinocess niyo? Di ba?
“Nine days after, ‘Ayy! Yung slug nga pala?!’ Di ba? Tapos, hinihingan pa nila, ‘Puwede ba nating i-recreate yung scene?’ ‘Ha?! Nag-process na tayo, ah?!’
“Days after, tuloy pa rin. Lumabas na yung report, binigay na sa akin, pinadala na sa akin yung ano. ‘Ahhh wala po kaming statement nung kasambahay.’
“Ha?! Kasama ko yung kasambahay dun sa bahay, sa Karingal, at sa paraffin test, kasama ko. Hindi niyo nakunan ng statement?
“Anong ginawa niyo dun? Anong ginawa niyo nung processing?”
Ipinadala kay Janno via Viber ang resulta ng paraffin test nila ng driver at kasambahay. Negatibo ang resulta.
