“Itong --- ‘yong si Fernandez ba ‘yan? A priest who killed a pregnant paramour of his. Nothing is happening to the case. Maglabas ‘yang warrant na ‘yan. Kung walang police, siyempre mahiya. It’s very unsettling actually. So ako ang mag-aresto sa iyo,”.
He added;
“You better surrender because if you are not, I’ll hunt you down. And if you don’t surrender, you put up a good fight, I’ll kill you like a dog. Wala akong --- the law is the law is the law. Period,” President Duterte said.

He then recapped that the Catholic ministry should not use the pulpit to attack him and his policies, particularly on his war on drugs.
