It's just few minutes ago when the verdict has been given to Mr. Renato Corona after processing it for five long months. The impeachment of the Chief Justice of the Philippines now found guilty under Article 2 of the impeachment.
Article II
Respondent committed culpable violation of the Constitution
and/or betrayed the public trust when he failed to disclose to the
public his Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Net worth as required
under Sec. 17, Art. XI of the 1987 Constitution.
He was convicted with 20 votes from the senatorial judges. As I watched the whole processed today, majority of the senator who decided to vote for conviction basically based their decision by the Chief Justice' statement itself. The respondent has been dragged down by his own statement the day he explained his self. In addition also the case of Ms. Delsa Flores that set as the basis of the senators votes to Mr. Corona's case. Kudos to the senatorial judges who explained their votes very well. Among all the 20 senators, I really appreciate the explanation of Sen. Allan Cayetano. In simple words he used, I believe that people understand more of this impeachment processes. Senator Cayetano delivered the message very well. The whole time I was watching, I am hoping that senators will do the same approach what Mr. Cayetano did. This is for the benefit of all people in all levels. So as to make them understand more of what is really happening in our government.
