CORONA AS VIZCONDE WHISTLE-BLOWER DOUBTFUL!

The claim of Lauro Vizconde that Chief Justice Rene Corona was the one who had tipped him off about efforts to railroad the acquittal by the Supreme Court of Hubert Webb and company is VERY, VERY DOUBTFUL.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I’d give it a 1. And for the record, I’m not working for Corona or the Supreme Court.

Consider the following, guys:

Corona is NOT STUPID to categorically reveal something as sensitive as that to Vizconde, and purportedly in the presence of another person, WITHOUT presenting proof.

Corona will not risk incurring PUBLIC OUTRAGE  and SCRUTINY with a declaration he cannot prove, even if he indeed had his own suspicions.

If Vizconde’s allegation is true, Corona is SMART ENOUGH to realize that he would be a hero and a national icon of justice if he would stop the purported railroading of the freedom of Webb and his gang.

Corona is already the BOSS, the CHIEF JUSTICE.

Why would he still go for anything that may destabilize his position, or place him on the proverbial ‘hot seat?’ Especially if it WON’T GET HIM ANYWHERE?

For those who will say that Corona may have had an axe to grind, the more realistic move for him would have been to get back at the alleged brains of the railroading, Associate Justice Antonio Carpio, in the Supreme Court itself, as the boss to a subordinate.

Instead of something that will cast a cloud of suspicion over his reputation.

And most of all, Vizconde COULD NOT BE 100 percent sure that Corona had categorically revealed the railroading to him.

In today’s issue of the Inquirer, Vizconde was quoted as saying that Corona “to the best of my recollection, said the following words: Talagang binabraso at iniimpluwensyahan ni Carpio ang kanyang mga kasama para mapawalang-sala si Webb, or words to that effect.”

 

 We all understand what “words to that effect mean, don’t we?”

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’m for the truth in the massacre of Vizconde’s wife and two daughters.

But unless there is SOLID EVIDENCE, Vizconde does not have the right to make sweeping accusations that can damage or destroy an individual’s reputation anytime he wants.

WITH ONLY HIS WORDS as proof.
