A letter is now circulating online as to an alleged apology demand of Kerry Kennedy, daughter of the late US Senator, Robert F. Kennedy from Philippine Senator Vicente “Tito” Sotto III. The alleged letter contains the “RFK Robert F. Kennedy Center For Justice & Human Rights” banner head, an organization where Kerry Kennedy is the president, stating that Sen. Sotto has indeed plagiarized her father’s speech. The Kerry Kennedy alleged demand letter addressed to Senator Sotto is in conjunction to the “Tagalog translated” excerpt speech of the late US Senator Robert F. Kennedy. (Reports from Rappler: Kennedy to Sotto: ‘This is a clear case of plagiarism)
Here is a screenshot of the letter from Kerry Kennedy as posted on the news site Rappler.
How will Philippine Senator Tito Sotto respond to the letter issued by the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights through RFK’s daughter, Kerry Kennedy? Will the Senator finally admit to his wrongdoing of plagiarizing Kennedy’s speech by translating it to Tagalog and presenting the words as his own?
