00:36.0
Okay? Ito mga kabatas natin, basahin muna natin yung balita.
00:39.7
Sabi, Jingoy Estrada acquitted of plunder.
00:42.3
Plunder yung mas mabigat na kaso.
00:45.0
Okay? Yung plunder na yan ay kapag ikaw ay nagdispal ko ng pera na 50 million and above.
00:52.5
Okay? Yan yung plunder. So nakasuhan siya dyan.
00:58.9
Acquitted, ibig sabihin, hindi na patunayan yung proof beyond reasonable doubt.
01:04.9
Pero, mga kabatas natin, dito sa bribery, sa pork barrel scam, convicted siya.
01:14.7
Anong ibig sabihin yan? Ibig sabihin, mga kabatas natin, nakita ng korte na merong proof beyond reasonable doubt.
01:23.7
Tignan natin, ha?
01:26.8
Mga kabatas natin.
01:29.1
Sabi niya, Estrada was convicted of one count of direct bribery and two counts of indirect bribery.
01:35.2
So, pag ganyan, mga kabatas natin, tatlong kaso niya yung pumasok.
01:39.0
He will remain free as he appeals those convictions.
01:43.9
Kasi nga, mga kabatas natin, everything is appealable naman hanggang umabot ito ng Supreme Court.
01:49.7
So, until hindi ito nagiging final, sagutin natin yung unang tanong.
01:58.5
Dahil hindi pa ito final, he is still presumed innocent.
02:03.1
Ibig sabihin, hindi ito pwedeng gamitin laban sa kanya.
02:07.1
Kunwari sa Ethics Committee.
02:09.6
Ethics Committee ng Senado.
02:12.2
Gagamitin ito laban sa kanya.
02:15.8
Bakit? It is a mere pending case.
02:19.6
If it is a pending case, it is not final and executory, it means...
02:24.6
It means, you still enjoy the presumption of innocence.
02:34.6
Sandigan ba yan, mga kabatas natin, yung nag-release ng verdict kay Estrada noong Friday?
02:42.7
Sabing ganyan, one count of direct bribery and two counts of indirect bribery.
02:48.3
Those carry a sentence of 8 to 9 years for direct bribery and 2 to 3 years for indirect bribery.
02:54.6
He was also ordered to pay 3 million fine.
02:57.3
So dito, masasagot natin, mga kabatas natin, kung eligible pa siya for bail.
03:05.7
Bail can only be denied if the penalty is reclusion perpetua and the evidence of guilt is strong.
03:13.4
Dito, mga kabatas natin, ang penalty lang ay 8 to 9 years, 2 to 3 years, at saka...
03:19.9
O, dalawang 2 to 3 years.
03:21.8
No? Isang 8 to 9 years, dalawang 2 to 3 years.
03:24.6
Walang reclusion perpetua.
03:26.6
Kahit may isa lang sana na reclusion perpetua dyan, pwedeng ma-deny yung bail.
03:30.5
Pero dito, mga kabatas natin, he will remain free.
03:34.8
If he files bail.
03:37.4
Ngayon, kailangan niya bang mag-motion dito?
03:41.0
Most likely may recommended bail na dito kasi nga itong mga offense na ito ay hindi reclusion perpetua.
03:50.0
Itong sabi niyang ganyan, sniriko, saan appeal niya ng attorney CA or SC?
03:54.6
No? Itong Sandigan Bayan, mag-CCA muna yan, tapos magko-court of appeals.
04:03.1
So, mag-a-appeal ito, most likely.
04:06.5
Ito, sabi dito, Estrada's indirect bribery conviction carries an accessory penalty of suspension from public office.
04:14.7
It is uncertain if this is immediately executory or if he has a chance to appeal.
04:20.4
I will make this certain.
04:54.5
Suspension na ginagawa bago ng investigasyon o habang investigasyon.
05:04.5
Ano ang tawag doon?
05:05.8
Preventive suspension.
05:07.5
Meron din yung penalty na suspension.
05:10.2
Yung penalty na suspension na yun, pag nag-final and executory na yun, yun yung kailangan ng due process.
05:21.4
Tama yung sinabi ano, preventive.
05:23.5
Preventive suspension, yun yun.
05:27.0
Yung isa, suspension as a penalty.
05:30.8
Ito yun, suspension as a penalty.
05:32.5
So habang hindi pa, mga kabans natin, hindi pa nagiging final yan, hindi pa yan, pwedeng i-carry out.
05:44.5
Sabi niya, ito kasing kaso na ito, nag-ugat yan doon sa kaso nila ni Jeanette Napoles.
05:55.1
Ito, convicted siya ng seven counts of corruption of public officials.
06:01.3
She was ordered to pay 262 million.
06:03.7
Lalaking pera, no?
06:05.1
Like Estrada, Napoles was acquitted of plunder but she remains in jail for other convictions including plunder in relation to the Bong Revilla case where the senator was acquitted.
06:15.6
Ang laking fiasco kasi talaga mga kabans natin.
06:17.8
Doon sa mga sumubaybay noon dito sa ano, sa kaso.
06:26.2
Eh, ang laking issue niya.
06:27.9
Dito rin yata yung ano, no?
06:31.1
Dito rin yung kaso kung saan involved si Atty. Villamor.
06:40.9
Ayoko kasi magkamali eh.
06:42.8
Baka may memory will fail me.
06:46.6
Dito ba yun yung si Atty. Villamor, eh, ano?
06:50.5
Freddy Villamor, eh, inaakusahan na...
06:53.5
Yung lapwrappler, inaakusahan siya na nag-bribe ng 100 million?
07:15.3
Kay Baligot, diba?
07:21.0
Ah, ito nga, ito nga.
07:27.7
Kasi parang abogado ni ano eh, abogado ni Villamor.
07:33.7
Ah, sorry, abogado ni Napoles itong si Villamor.
07:38.0
Hindi si Freddy Libayan, ha.
07:40.1
Yung tunay na Freddy Villamor.
07:42.2
So, sabi ko, hindi ko pwede.
07:45.9
Then on March 27...
07:49.4
Ito, natin na nyo.
07:51.6
But Napoles' lawyer, Villamor, offered 100 million in bribe.
07:55.9
That was 10 years ago.
07:58.4
Bakit? At sinabi niya, pwede mo bang pagbik...
08:07.8
Ah, nakipagkita po si General Dias sa akin dahil sabi niya, meron lang akong ididiscuss sa iyo.
08:15.2
At alam ko po si General Dias dahil na-meet ko na siya once.
08:20.9
Nagkita kami nung pitsan ko na si Jonathan Baligot.
08:24.1
So, nag-meet po kami ni General Dias at tinanong ko kung bakit.
08:28.8
At sinabi niya, pwede mo bang pagbigyan si Atty. Villamor ng isa pang meeting?
08:34.4
Eh, tungkol saan, General? Sabi ko.
08:37.0
Hindi ko alam. Basta pagbigyan mo isa pa, sabi niya.
08:40.5
Sige po, sabihin mo kay Atty. Villamor na tawagan ako or mag-text to confirm.
08:45.5
And immediately, tumawag si Atty. Villamor sa akin.
08:48.2
So, as a courtesy...
08:50.9
Ah, yan. Siya yan.
08:55.0
At inulit lang niya yung offer po niya na 5 million.
08:59.0
Opo. So, sabi ko, hindi ako...
09:01.9
Bribe. 5 million.
09:06.6
Pero nakalagay sa title, offered 100 million in bribe.
09:15.1
Atty. Villamor, baka naman.
09:20.9
Ito na, oh. Nagpuputukan na yung kaso, oh.
09:34.9
Strada Staff, Polinterizme, Labayan.
09:37.8
Oh, muntik ng Libayan yan.
09:39.8
And the Police Staff, John Raymond Diaz, remain at large.
09:42.7
Their cases are archived and warrants of arrest have been reissued.
09:47.0
Yan. So, may outstanding silang alias warrant.
09:54.0
Strada had been accused of pocketing 183 million of kickbacks
09:57.4
from his Priority Development Assistance Fund.
10:00.7
PIDAF. Discretionary Funds.
10:06.4
Siya daw yung second of three senators to be acquitted of plunder in the pork barrel scam.
10:10.5
A decade-long trial has seen lower-ranked staff fall, but lawmakers free.
10:17.6
Strada, who won the senatorial comeback in 2022
10:20.3
with the Marcos Lutertes late,
10:22.5
is not completely off the hook of the graph allegations over the same controversy.
10:27.2
Thunder has to involve an amount of 50 million and above.
10:29.9
Alam na natin yan.
10:32.6
Strada has been out on bail for almost seven years now
10:35.0
after the same court granted his bail petition in 2017.
10:39.9
Yan. So, ang mangyayari dyan, yung bail niya, outstanding pa lang yun.
10:43.5
I-maintain niya lang yun.
10:50.3
Hindi daw siya kasi yung main plunderer.
10:54.2
Ito rin, meron din siyang...
10:58.3
Si Juan Ponzi Inrele, meron siyang plunder case.
11:04.8
Nag-endorse daw sila ng NGO, did not earn from the scam.
11:09.3
This is Strada's second plunder win.
11:11.7
He was charged alongside his father, former President Joseph Strada,
11:15.4
over the accusation that they earned 4 billion from wetting operations, among others.
11:24.8
Jingay Strada was cleared, but his father, President Strada, was convicted and pardoned later on
11:28.9
by former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
11:35.9
Anyway, yun lang mga kabatas natin.
11:38.2
Sa tingin ko, nasagot ko naman na lahat.
11:40.5
Anong pa ba yung mga tanong?
11:43.0
Anong pa ba yung mga tanong, mga kabatas natin?
11:50.3
Di ba yun, madidisbar pag...
11:52.2
Accusation pa naman eh.
11:58.8
Siguro kung ano, kung meron silang proof, no?
12:02.0
Makapaglabas sila ng ebidensya na ganun nga.
12:05.8
Kasi, syempre, you have to prove evidence.
12:08.0
You have to show evidence.
12:12.8
Wala na siguro, no?
12:14.3
Well, it's the weekend.
12:16.1
Kaya, mga kabatas natin, maraming salamat.
12:20.3
Tulad na lagi yung sinasabi, matulog po tayo ng mahimbing
12:22.4
dahil alam natin na yung natutulog ng mahimbing,
12:24.7
siya yung laging panalo.
12:25.7
Paalam po, pansamantala.
