Before being elected President, he was mayor of Davao city for decades and linked to a death squad responsible for murdering drug users and sellers.Now under his presidency, in the past two months alone, at least 1,300 people have been found dead, many with their heads covered with signs identifying them as drug users or pushers. It was over this killing spree that Duterte defensively lashed out at Obama. The US canceled President Obama’s visit with Duterte in the wake of the controversial statements.
