Breaking news 1:50pm, i can see an inset box with no talkies of a live coverage of the Makati RTC with graphics that say Makati RTC to rule on Benhur Luy’s illegal detention case vs. Napoles– is that already the promulgation of judgment in People vs. Janet Napoles?
1:53 pm still no talkies, the clerk of court is alrady reading out loud the decision. it’s an inset box with no talkies of re-run of Talkback on the topic of OFWs… where’s the audio of the promulgation?
1:56pm Still no audio. It’s serious illegal detention. Capital offense. Pork barrel queen. Still no audio!
1:59pm. Anak ng kamote. Decision ba iyon o interlocutory order lang? It looks like promulgation of the decision, the clerk of court was standing in front of the judge reading it out loud while the accused and her lawyers were on their feet. It’s promulgation. Where are you 2:02pm Nawala na. Wala nang media coverage. Promulgation na ba yon… anobur
My Prerogative 2 (see previous post): To illustrate further the principle: In the same manner, the President can exercise his prerogative right now over the police and find out what’s going on over at the Makati city hall: Check if the CA order is regular and valid, and if so, tell your men to stand down. That’s prerogative. However, he can also choose not to lift a finger and let the regular bureaucracy take its course: Let the DILG Secretary, the DOJ Secretary, and the PNP Chief continue with what seems to be a “standoff” based on media reports. Yun po ang ibig sabihin ng prerogative: pwede nyang utusan nang diretso ang mga pulis pero siya ang may pananagutan.
