Another capitol legal consultant, Rory Jon Sepulveda, said the deed of donation should have made NMP “extra cautious” since it listed the panels as having come from the Archdiocesan Shrine of Patrocinio de Maria Santisima, a heritage church in Boljoon in southern Cebu. Garcia and her legal team, led by Cebu Provincial Legal Officer Donato Villa Jr., also discussed an opinion by the Office of the Solicitor General written at the request of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts to look into the probable liabilities of the NMP.
Another condition listed by the OSG was that the accused should have known that the item was stolen. Barns said that for the NMP, the panels were not stolen but sold by the priest.
