82 ACCTS/12,000,000$: CORONA’S MONEY OR GMA’S?

82 DOLLAR ACCTS/12,000,000$: CORONA’S MONEY OR GMA’S?

Just when we thought that the public was losing interest in the impeachment, the defense committed a blunder that Cuevas may regret for the rest of his life at the age of 83; they called a hostile witness to the stand. The plan was to embarrass the Ombudsman and thereby the president, surrounding the so-called millions of dollars in the accounts of Corona. Even he (Cuevas) found this unbelievably preposterous. He was probably thinking that the Ombudsman was fronting for the president, embarking on a fishing expedition, because surely, how could Corona amass so much wealth?  He (Cuevas) probably did not expect that the Ombudsman would come armed with verifiable documents from the “Anti-money laundering team,” not to mention a PowerPoint presentation and tagging along with the incorruptible Mendoza from the Commission on Audit. That the country is shocked is an understatement with these new revelations. The court wrangled for days over the 5-dollar accounts of the CJ to open or not to open, but 82-dollar accounts with 12 million plus dollars in them are mind-boggling; it blew my mind, but there is a catch. Who owns all this money? I have a hunch; the Arroyos. Marcos is GMA’s idol, and I will not be too far off from the mark if I assume that, like Marcos, GMA created cronies to front for stolen wealth. To avoid being assassinated, it will be wise for Corona not to take the stand at all costs because, after all, the senator judges would likewise. The senators will almost certainly dig deep into where he got all of the money. However, I will not rule out the possibility that he got the money from Lucio Tan for the reversal of the SC PAL decision to pay back wages and reinstate thousands of PAL employees. What is few hundred million if you can save a billion?
