Timeline

1924

He did not get one of the 24 seats allotted in the Philippine Senate as he placed 54th in the final election result.

1947

Vincent "Bingbong" Pichay Crisologo (born May 31, 1947) is a Filipino politician who served as the Representative of Quezon City's 1st District from 2004 to 2013 and from 2016 to 2019.

Vincent Pichay Crisologo was born on May 31, 1947, in Vigan, Ilocos Sur to Floro Singson Crisologo (July 29, 1908 – October 18, 1970), a representative of Ilocos Sur's 1st district who was the author/father of the Philippine Social Security System Law and Carmen Pichay (June 5, 1923 – January 31, 2018), who would later be elected as governor of Ilocos Sur from 1964 to 1971.

He is a paternal cousin of Luis "Chavit" Singson, the incumbent municipal mayor of Narvacan, Ilocos Sur and former governor of Ilocos Sur.

1970

On October 18, 1970, Bingbong's father, Floro, then the representative for Ilocos Sur's 1st district, was attending the Sunday mass at the Vigan Cathedral and was about to fall in line for the communion when a lone gunman shot him in the head.

The incident caused panic in the church so the assassin was able to run and disappear.

Up to this day, the murder has not been solved and it is generally believed by the public that it was politically motivated.

He was convicted of arson in 1970 for burning Barangay Ora Centro and Ora Este in the town of Bantay, Ilocos Sur and was sentenced with a penalty of double life imprisonment.

1971

In 1971, he ran for mayor of Vigan in the same party with his mother, who was then the incumbent Ilocos Sur governor.

Both of them lost to his paternal cousins Evaristo “Titong” Singson and Luis “Chavit” Singson as the Vigan mayor and the Ilocos Sur governor, respectively.

1972

He served time in jail starting from June 1972 and was pardoned via an absolute pardon by President Ferdinand Marcos in 1980.

1980

He was released from prison at December 31, 1980, at 11:55 p.m.

After his release, he founded The Loved Flock Catholic-Charismatic Community.

He led the spiritual formation of its members and extended assistance to members with various needs, from financial to run-of-the mill requests.

1992

In 1992, he ran for senator under the ticket of the Nacionalista Party.

1995

Crisologo first ran as congressman in 1995 in the 1st district of Quezon City against Reynaldo Calalay and Renato Yap.

However, he lost in this election to Calalay.

1998

He also served as a councilor in Quezon City from 1998 to 2004.

Crisologo served as councilor of Quezon City from the 1st district from 1998 to 2004.

He first ran in 1998 and was reelected in 2001.

He ran alongside his political ally, Congressman Reynaldo Calalay.

2003

Congressman Calalay personally endorsed Crisologo to fill in his slot as the representative of the 1st district before his death in 2003.

2004

Crisologo then ran in 2004 and decisively won.

2007

Crisologo was subsequently reelected in 2007 and in 2010.

The Ombudsman added "... while Crisologo did endorse KACI, the process of selection still rested on the DSWD's discretion. In fact, even if there was no such endorsement, the DSWD, as the implementing agency (IA), was still required to follow the procedures provided for by the Revised Guidelines in the Granting, Utilization, Accounting, and Auditing of the Funds released to NGOs/POS (COA Circular 2007-001). As respondent-movants DSWD officials themselves alleged... "the DSWD as a whole, exercise due diligence in assessing the qualifications and validating the operations of KACI," thus admitting that they did not rely merely on Crisologo's endorsement of KACI.

The Ombudsman emphasized the following: 1) that there was no evidence that Crisologo influenced or forced the DSWD to select KACI and thus Crisologo should not be faulted for his mere endorsement; 2) that Crisologo's participation was to merely recommend and identify a project to be funded by his PDAF allocation, that he had no participation in the conduct of public bidding and certainly was not the one responsible for the implementation of the project; and 3) there was no evidence that Crisologo handled, distributed or caused the release of public funds to KACI and neither were the SAROs directed or addressed to him.

Citing jurisprudence, the Ombudsman pointed that Crisologo's role was purely recommendatory, and based on the case of LAMP v. Secretary of Budget and Management which upheld Philconsa v. Enriquez, "the proposals and identification made by the Members of Congress are merely recommendatory."

2010

His 2010 bid was an overwhelming victory as he won nearly 61% of the votes as compared to his closest opponent who only less than 24% of the votes.

He was vice-chairman for the Appropriations, Housing and Urban Development, Information and Communications Technology, Labor and Employment, and Ways and Means Committees of Congress.

He was also a member of the following Committees; Metro Manila Development, Millennium Developmental Goals, Public Works and Highways, and Science and Technology.

2016

In 2016, he regained his seat as congressman of the 1st district of Quezon City, defeating incumbent Congressman Boy Calalay of the Liberal Party in a landslide victory.

He was also named as the Deputy Majority Leader in the House of Representatives.

He is also the Recognized President of PDP–Laban Quezon City Council.

2017

The Ombudsman stated:"'WHEREFORE, in view of the foregoing, the June 19, 2017 Resolution is hereby RECONSIDERED. The findings of probable cause against Vincent P. Crisologo... are DISMISSED.'"According to Rule III, Section 7 of Administrative Order No. 07 or the Rules of Procedure of the Office of the Ombudsman, where the respondent is absolved of the charges, the decision shall be final, executory and unappealable.

The Ombudsman in pronouncing Congressman Crisologo as innocent against the charges against him, stated in its decision that "Mere endorsement of an NGO, however, is not readily taken as illegal per se, as it does not vest any legal import or significance in confirming the accreditation, selection, and evaluation of the NGO."

Back in 2017, Crisologo shrugged off the politically motivated raps.

Crisologo said this act of the Ombudsman to charge public officials is what President Rodrigo Duterte is referring to when he ordered an investigation into the alleged partiality of the anti-graft office.

2019

On October 18, 2019, the Ombudsman issued an order dismissing all charges filed in 2017 against then Congressman Crisologo for alleged graft and malversation.

In 2019, he ran for mayor of Quezon City with Ipaglaban Mo! host Jopet Sison as his running mate, but lost to outgoing Vice Mayor Joy Belmonte by only 103,265 votes.

The voter turnout in the 2019 elections for the position of Mayor was 835,695.
