People's advocate or Defenders of Corruption?

This issue did not even surprise me. I mean, come on, this is not the first time something like this becomes the headline in a newspaper that no matter how the topic may seem big, in reality, it looks as usual as those guys in uniform you find on the streets collecting "kotong" from the poor jeepney / taxi drivers. What a shame.


The agreement is obviously detrimental to the Filipinos as it completely went against the principles of constitution and gave the impression that our country is but a corrupt.


While the plea bargain serves advantages to both parties, it still is belligerent. Why? Because this allows the criminals to have less charges and penalties than what they should and MUST have. Isn't it that the purpose of punishments like this is to teach the criminal a lesson (that's just one of the many intentions it should fulfill). Tell me, does justice still exist?


These 3 accused judges would rather fight it out and exhaust all ways possible just to save their asses, knowingly they are guilty as charged.


It sure violated the Rules of Court. And it sure made the people of this country become more untrusting of their defenders.... or rather, their "SUPPOSED-TO-BE-DEFENDERS" .....
