This is the controversial story of Delia Smith, more popularly known as Pepsi Paloma, a 14-year old "bold star" or "bomba" (soft-porn) actress who in 1982 was allegedly raped by Vic Sotto, Joey De Leon and Ricardo Reyes (a.k.a. Richie D'Horsie), hosts of the popular noontime variety TV show Eat Bulaga. Three years later, she was found dead in her apartment by an apparent suicide. But did she really take her own life or was there foul play? Listener discretion is advised due to the graphic nature of this story.
