In a story in inquirer.net (http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/934483/lagman-says-imee-bongbong-partly-accountable-for-martial-law-abuses-duterte-imee-marcos-bongbong-marcos-edcel-lagman-politics),
Congressman Edcel Lagman said Saturday President DIgong Duterte cannot just
simply describe Imee and Bongbong Marcos as sinless during
Martial Law. But other than saying that the two were “old enough when the
documented atrocities and plunder were committed by the ‘conjugal dictatorship’
of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos,” Lagman DID NOT CITE ANY SPECIFIC SIN of either
Bongbong or Imee.
Now, I am NOT SAYING that Bongbong and Imee
are innocent. ONLY a court of law can say that. We’re talking SPECIFICALLY
about Bongbong and Imee so let’s go by the FACTS, and not just by the opinion
or SENTIMENTS of anyone:
Except for God Almighty, MERE WORDS are not evidence.
More than 45 years after Martial Law, neither Bongbong nor Imee has been
convicted of or charged with, any criminal offense even if they were NO LONGER
IN POWER. To date, NO ONE HAS COME OUT OR HAS PROVEN BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT
any wrongdoing SPECIFCIALLY COMMITTED by either Bongbong or Imee. Lagman
pointed out the killing of a guy who was found dead two days after he
criticized Imee in an event in the ‘70s. But while damages were awarded to the
victim’s family, it was not proven that Imee was directly responsible in any
manner for the killing. Anybody correct
me if I’m wrong. Just be sure to have details.
I’m not a lawyer but I will dare say that
there’s no law providing that a person should suffer for somebody else’s sin,
especially if there’s no INDISPUTABLE EVIDENCE that he had been part of it.
So before Lagman says anything else against
Bongbong or Imee, he had better have rock-hard physical proof and details
ready. Otherwise, somebody had better remind him that he’s too old to be a
rumormonger. 30
