Lawyers of Chief Justice Renato Corona had better ask for a
subpoena for Deputy Presidential Spokesperson Abigail Valte.
She might know something they don’t on how the PSBank
records of the Chief Justice ended up in the hands of the prosecution.
In a radio interview Saturday, Valte practically cleared the
Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) as being the source
of Corona ’s bank
records, categorically stating that “we know that the BSP, being the regulator
of banking institutions, will not allow these things to happen.”
Think about these, people:
Valte is not an official of the BSP. She is not
a senator or a staff member of the Senate committee investigating the leakage
of Corona ’s
bank records.
Anybody correct me if I’m wrong but neither is
there a separate investigation being conducted by Malacanang on the issue.
So what legal, professional or moral right does
she have to immediately and sweepingly clear the BSP of any wrongdoing in the
leakage of Corona ’s
bank records?
When a person declares another person (s) as
innocent of an illegal act, he or she should have a basis for doing so.
Valte should be asked to reveal hers.
Especially since she also categorically declared
that there would be no cover-up when asked to comment on BSP examiner Jerry
Leal, whom some senators suspect as being the source of the leak.
After all, truth and transparency are two of the
favorite words of his big boss Pnoy.
So as Malacanang often puts it, if Valte has
nothing to hide, then there should be no problem for her to testify in the
impeachment trial and explain her basis for acquitting the BSP.
If Valte won’t testify, then she and the rest of
Malacanang officials including Pnoy, deserve NO CREDIBILITY from now on for
whatever they say against Corona .
They should all have the decency to SHUT UP once
and for all!

Theft should never benefit
anyone. Yet, here we have personal information, OWNED by the Chief Justice, and
entrusted to a bank, obtained unlawfully by the prosecution, and no outrage is
heard by the country's chief enforcer of laws! Stealing is stealing, and all
who are parties to it must be punished. Worse, the anti-Corona crowd condones
it. They sanction it under the battlecry of "letting the truth come
out." So what then will I tell my children -- it is OK to steal, if it is
in the service of truth?
