At the impeachment trial, there’s a lady seemingly on the side of Chief Justice Renato Corona. She bawled out a prosecution lawyer and sought to cite him for contempt. But on insinuations made by a defense lawyer, which cast doubts on the integrity of the impeachment court, she made nary a whimper.
Her behavior tells us that to her Renato Corona may be as guilty as hell (which we may not believe in), a miscreant of myriad misdeeds and totally unfit to be a chief justice, but if the evidence against him has been successfully suppressed—act as a bully for him.
Suffering from a life-threatening disease, I’ve begged my cardiologist to keep me alive to see the impeachment trial to be justified.
Thank God, Article XI, Section 13 of our Constitution authorizes the Ombudsman to investigate, on its own, complaints against any public official for illegal acts.
