Maureen Hultman case: Gov't free Claudio Teehankee Jr son of ex-chief justice

[moyti]

---

this crooked system of injustice only proves that in the philippines, when you do wrong, do it big time so you'll get off the hook.

anyway, the real justice is not here but during the end of days. we can only pray for the hultmans and the rest of the people who are victims of grave injustice.

yeah it is within the powers of the president...


pero kung ikaw kaha naa sa lugar sa pamilya sa nabiktima ana.... unsa man kaha imong bation?
pananglitan.. pila ka tuig ninyo gihagoan para lang mapapriso pero ingon ana lang ang mahitabo?

makahatag man gud siya ug lain nga mensahe... makaingon ra man pod na ang uban hilabi na ang may kaya nga pwede ra ta makasala karon kay someday somehow.. ato ra magamit ang clemency...

samut pa jud, nga nagpataka sila sulti about the family's "agreement" daw nga nisugot sila to pardon... bisan wala! Maayo jud kaayo mangilad tawn. Highest form of lying and injustice jud.

[QUOTE=giddyboy;3369948]in case u didn't know yet, kad2 usa ka sundalo sa Aquino-Galman case na pardoned na (murag last yr ra man tingale toh). naay duha wa kaabot ug namatay sa presohan ug ang uban 13 awaiting exec clemency nga in process na. and it is only Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III who is opposing the move to grant executive clemency to the convicted killers of his father.

karun pko kahibaw from you bro, good kong naa nai gi pardoned; maau ni sila kai aware sa dagan sa justice system labi na sa pagpardon sa mga involved sa case. kahinumdum ko nga willing ang mga Aquino ma pardoned tanan only if they (the soldiers) will tell whos done it. dba?

anyway maau ni sila kai unay man, mkahibaw gyd sa dagan. kang Teehankee nga case, wla mn diay pahibaw.a ang family sa victims.

nya Teehankee is just 60+ bata ba kau para ma pardoned bsan double life ang sentence ani. so, sa dili madugay kani pd involved sa Chong case mkagawas napud ni sa dili madugay and the rest of those high profile cons. well done Philippines!

let's face it , life is unfair. kadtong duol sa luwag mao gyud ang ma-una. as long as it was done in due process bisan naa pa'y favoritism, wa gyud ta'y mahims.

the symbol of justice nagkupot lage sa timbangan. pero she is a Goddess in the likeness of us humans. there's also the meaning there. coz if not, timbangan nlng ang naa unta walay tawo or goddess.

"The constitution of our country is not the law of our land. That which is fair and just is rarely simple. The constitution is not the law, but the heart of the law, the principals from which the laws are derived. The real “law of the land” is the Legal Code. In a democracy, the law will never be simple. Different groups and people will require compromise and specification. Which means volumes, rather than pages of law.

You will hear constant statements such as “The Constitution guarantees certain rights”. And that, dear readers, is bullshit. The constitution is lovely piece of old paper. Next time your rights are being violated, call out to the constitution. See if it sprouts little parchment legs and comes running to your defense, a musty musket clutched to its flat, printed breast. The constitution is a symbol. It is not the symbol of justice which makes justice,but just men and women.

Teehankee was granted his pardon not by the Constitution in a little glass box but by the work of his hands and the humanitarian spirit of those men and women who effected justice.

(those are borrowed words from Ronin of the Spirit)

“The Hultmans did not object when asked about the possibility of giving Mr. Teehankee pardon, and the Hultmans thought there was remorse on [his] part,” Ermita told reporters.

He said this was a “major factor” in Ms Arroyo’s decision to grant clemency to Teehankee.

Teehankee and the others were pardoned “because they had complied with the regulations and processes undertaken by the Board of Pardons and Parole.”

People are singling out Mr. Teehankee when he was one of the 292 prisoners [granted clemency], Dureza said.

“I hope the media will write about the 291 others,” he said.

I wonder if the other 291 people pardoned committed a crime as heinous as his?

First was Estrada(plunderer), second was Jalosjos(child rapist) and now Teehankee (teenage murderer), who's next? The common denominator, aside from the fact that all of them are convicted criminals, of course its Politics. Its what they call, for the lack of the term "Bayad Utang".

That's what we get from a cheat president.
