Impeachment trial of Corona started last January 16, Monday,
of this year. It was the second impeachment trial of the history since
Ombudsman Gutierrez resigned prior to the trial It's about the questioned
property of Corona. He owned at least 45 condominiums and houses. They just
wanted corona to explain how he was able to acquire that huge number of
properties and he didn't have pork barrel. Before this impeachment trial begin,
some of the senators have their own way in preparing themselves for a long hour
of trials.
On the first day of trial, Corona stated on a speech that "there is no turning back" on the impeachment trial. He said that he did not do anything wrong against the president or the people, that he did not steal from anyone, that the 45 properties were owned by his wife and in-laws. He also denied that the World Bank loan were on his responsibilty. He also said that there were people who are acting a conspiracy to remove him from office; those who wants to prevent the distribution of Hacienda Luisita, owned by the family of P-Noy, to the farmer-beneficiaries. The trial started at 2:00pm headed by the senate President Juan Ponce Enrile.
