被拘留的海外菲律宾工人玛丽·珍·维洛索在一封从监狱写就并于1月28日发布的公开信中，呼吁公众继续支持她的自由。她于2024年从印度尼西亚死囚牢房转移至菲律宾，目前已在曼达卢永女子矫正机构度过一年。
在信中，维洛索描述了她年迈父母的艰难处境，他们从Nueva Ecija长途跋涉8-10小时前来探望她。“我想让你们知道，看到我年事已高的父母从Nueva Ecija远道而来，花费8-10小时只为探望我，对我来说有多么艰难，”她写道，强调了家庭的经济和健康压力负担。维洛索坚持自己的清白，并感谢那些在2015年为她免于死刑以及后来转移至菲律宾而奔走游说的支持者，同时敦促他们继续倡导她的释放。“我希望能在父母健在时有机会照顾他们，尤其是我未能陪伴长大的孩子们，”她说。多份寻求对维洛索赦免的请愿书已提交给马科斯政府，但均未获批准。支持者还提交了加速她针对涉嫌贩运者的案件的上诉，以及质疑其在本国拘留合法性的 habeas corpus 请愿书。她曾因在印度尼西亚运送海洛因被判死刑，但获准缓刑并随后移交菲律宾政府。
