THE ACCUSATION IS NOT SYNONYMOUS WITH GUILT

Here again, is another example of abs-cbn news where it gave extensive coverage on the absurd episode that it cannot be taken seriously. A witness assassin was unleashed like an attack dog supposedly to create unearthly scream in our midst as sort of set the Filipino people over the edge.

All told the accusation against Paolo ‘Pulong’ Duterte and DA Usec. Waldo Carpio as alleged protector receiving drug pay off cannot be measured as to contain the legal yardstick of prima facie evidence worthy to deserve the proverbial second look. As we delve into the accusation and the underlying assumptions, and filter the gold from the dustpan, to speak figuratively, the evidence presented was not enough to overcome the presumption of innocence as constitutionally ordained.

Against all reasons, the accusation of someone who even masquerades his identity cannot be upheld when subjected to scrutiny more concordant with absolute facts and values of reality. The government's drive against illegal drugs deserves everybody's support. But it cannot be pursued by ignoble means which are violative of constitutional rights of Presidential son Paolo Duterte and Usec. Waldo Carpio.

Obviously then, from the very beginning, this anonymous individual who was down on his luck was not at all moved by good faith and an honest motive. His accusation were empty words directly intended to fool, dupe, entice, beguile and deceive the Filipino people into believing what is completely false.

It can even be said that this 'robot' committed such deplorable acts in blatant disregard of Article 19 of the Civil Code which directs every person to act with justice, give everyone his due and observe honesty and good faith in the exercise of his rights and in the performance of his obligations.

Evidently, the accuser and his handlers had a common bestial and ignoble purpose in accusing precipitately Pulong Duterte and Usec. Waldo Carpio. These people only want to besmirch their reputation, which is like a plant of tender growth, and its bloom, once lost, is not easily be restored.
