MIKO GALLARDO REVEALS HE WAS RAPED, SEXUALLY ASSAULTED
Kasunod nito ay binalikan ni Miko kung kailan nagsimula ang kanyang kalbaryo.
Ayon kay Miko, biktima siya ng rape noong walong taong gulang pa lamang siya at nakaranas din siya ng seksuwal na pang-aabuso mula sa iba pang mga tao.
Lahad niya: “Let’s go back to the past where it all began.
“Maybe if I do go back in the past and talk about it, it will give a sense to why I am here in this situation right now.
“Maybe I can only blame myself.
“But when I was only eight years old, I was raped by two people I trusted as older sisters.
“I will not be dropping any names. I’ll be as straightforward as possible just to give an idea.
“I was also almost raped by older men when I was around the same age. But the only reason they didn’t go through with it was because they almost got caught.

“But I did not speak up. I was a scared little boy who never talks.
“But this time, I’ll say it all, I don’t care. I don’t give a f*ck. I don’t give a f*ck anymore.”
Isiniwalat din ni Miko na nagkaroon siya ng “sexual relationship” sa isang babaeng malaki ang tanda sa kanya mula noong sampung taong gulang lamang siya hanggang noong teenager na siya.
Ito raw marahil ang dahilan kung kaya’t nasa ganitong sitwasyon siya ngayon.
“Ten years old all the way up, around 16, 17… I don’t even remember anymore. I had a sexual relationship with an older woman who was way older.
“Growing up, that really f*cked up my mind. Filled my head with anger, lust, and bad choices.
“And that’s the reason maybe why I’m here.”
Sinabi rin ni Miko na nang pumasok siya sa showbiz ay nakaranas siya ng “sexual assault” mula sa ilang tao sa industriya.

Pagsisiwalat ni Miko: “When my career started, I got people sexually assaulting me in this industry, the acting industry.
“Yeah, Filipino PD trying to get me many, many times. But I never spoke up.
“They told me to shut up, take it in, and just focus on my career.
“That messed me up big time. Led me to bad decisions, bad choices, substance abuse, alcohol, you name it.”
Ang mga sumunod na pahayag ni Miko ay nagdulot ng kalituhan.
Sa sarili niyang salita: “They never got a hold of me because I always try to find a way to reason out or run away.
“But I was never able to fight back because if you do, you know what happens when you fight back in this industry?
“You know what happens? They bury you.

MIKO GALLARDO: “GIVE ME A CHANCE TO LIVE AGAIN”
Pagod na raw lumaban si Miko kaya nagmamakaawa siya sa taong kumukontrol umano sa kanya na palayain na siya.
Ngunit sakaling hindi raw mangyari ang kagustuhan niya, nagpahiwatig si Miko na maaaring may gawin siya sa sarili.
“All right. I’m here now though,” sabi niya.
“I’m still alive. I’m still kicking. Begging for my life back.
“So that person who has control over me right now, you know what I’ve been through.
“You know the sh*t that I had to crawl my ass out of.
“So let’s make a deal. Let’s end things peacefully.
“Give me a chance to live again.
“But if you give me no choice and just tell me to end my life while you laugh about it or celebrate over it, you tell me I deserve it, then you leave me with no choice.

“So only I can end it.
“Let me go ‘coz I’m tired. I’m f*ck*ing tired.”
