I would have to laugh-out-loud if Senator Mirriam Defensor Santiago would take it seriously and consider requiring the military and police personnel to look for “Mister Anonymous” due to a strike three circumstance where evidences coming in are from “anonymous” sources.
First, from a small lady giving documents to Oriental Mindoro Representative Reynaldo Umali, then from a messenger who left it hanging on the front gate of Quezon City Representative Bolet Banal, now from another mysterious source who left it within the premises of Harvey Keh’s Kaya Natin Movement for Good Governance and Ethical Leadership organization office.
Harvey Keh, presented as a hostile witness by the Defense panel, was now being asked to give due cause and may face legal liabilities on why he submitted documents that could influence the decision making of the Senator Judges of the Impeachment Court.
Many would claim that “unverified and unauthenticated” documents coming from these “anonymous” sources could very well be fabricated and fictitious that were strategically orchestrated to pin down the Chief Justice Renato Corona.
O, come on! Instead of focusing on destroying the credibility of the witnesses and documents presented, couldn’t the Defense team just present their rebuttal evidence or their very own materials and sources that would debunk, disprove and falsify the accusations against the head of the Supreme Court.
“Too many sheets of paper have been passed around, and so much time has been wasted. The best way to settle all doubts is for the accused to take the stand.”
I hate what is happening at the Impeachment court. Instead of encouraging individuals to come out and get involve, some of our so called leaders are discouraging us to participate in criticizing irregularities.
Unless you want to be berated and humiliated by the Senator Judges, especially by the banshee-like and hyper-ventilating sermons of Senator judge Mirriam Defensor Satiago. Whoa! I hate to be in her shoes! It seems most of the people only admire her because of her superb knowledge of the law, but nobody would want to hang out with her as their BFF.
So what if its “unverified documents coming from Anonymous sources” …at least somebody took the effort to contribute what he believes might help the case….
Harvey Keh was just probably unaware of proper procedures, like us ordinary people, who lacks the legal knowledge on how to correctly address our concerns without getting ourselves in trouble.
He did say he is not a lawyer so he is not familiar with legal terms and procedures, and frankly he was probably too excited to bring forth what he believed as strong evidence against the Chief Justice.
Imagine being accused as the possible fabricator of the “damaging” documents.
“Intense” hate against one person could indeed succumb you to do everything nasty and devious enough to bring him down for good, even if it means falsifying documents.
Who are these “Mister Anonymous”? Are they different people working for the Aquino government?
I would love to be a Mister Anonymous if I would get my hands on similar documents, but should I have to suffer ridicule from the Pro-Coronas, and have my character assassinated by these high-caliber lawyers and politicians, including Pro-Corona mediamen and friends?
Why should it be a burden on my part to try to authenticate or verify the documents, when my real intention is to ask for their help in probing and confirm the veracity of the said documents.
So what if I want to share my information with the media? The media listens, and could possibly be my only savior to protect me from situations like these.
More of the comments soon as more facts unravel.
Huling Hirit:
“In our lives, we are brought to difficult situations where it is almost impossible to do the right thing. And in struggling to do what is right, we remind others of the possibility and greatness that a human being is capable of. It is called a heroic moment.” -Harvey Keh
“Bayan, huwag tayong pumayag na kung sino pa ang may ginagawang masama, sila pa ang may ganang magalit at manindak. Huwag din tayong manood lamang at siya pang unang mamintas at mangutya sa mga taong kahit nahihirapan ay naninindigan.” – Grace Padaca
