Social and political criticisms
Repost from Inquirer | September 19, 2013
One of the senators, a senior one has been linked to the P10 billion plunder case PDAF Napoles scam. The lawyers say that there are no documents that link the senator diverting the Senators PDAF funds to the Napoles NGO.
With the admission of the whistle blower Benhur Luy (a relative of Napoles) that numerous documents have been forged by Napoles staff or even by other people, it would be difficult to have solid case vs the senators. Hearsay and speculation may not be good evidence to prosecute the alleged culprit. As good lawyers and even Presiding officer of the Senate, or even chief of the impeachment court, the good senator would be smart enough to have no part in this scam.
I wonder whether the prosecution would be embarrassed and red faced if the lawyers submit their counter affidavit.
Did the prosecutors DOJ proceed in haste? Did they bungle this one again. I am not pro or against any one but let us follow the process. Let us think like we are professionals and not gossipers or those who rely on hearsays to make judgment on people
