MANILA, Philippine - Impeached Chief Justice Renato Corona on Monday dismissed Ombudsman Conchita Carpio-Morales' presentation before the Senate impeachment court as a "lantern of lies," saying he was ready to debunk all her claims.

Corona also urged the Ombudsman, his former colleague at the Supreme Court, to step down from her post after the chief justice proves that all her presentations are wrong.

“The number of accounts alone is at best ridiculous. Her PowerPoint diagram is a lantern of lies which only messed up her presentation, contrary to what some believe now as damning evidence,” Corona said in a statement.

“Either she does not know what she is talking about, or is purposely misleading the Impeachment Court and the public. Is she even privy to how the AMLC [Anti-Money Laundering Council] arrived at the bloated numbers?” he added.

He said that his camp would be ready to "debunk all" of the Ombudsman's "bloated numbers."

"And once she is proven wrong, I urge her to immediately resign from her post for allowing herself to be used by this Administration and making a laughingstock of ‘government auditing'."

But Corona said the allegations were similar to the "LRA hoax." He was referring to the Land Registration Authority's computer-generated data that showed that the chief justice had 45 properties.

This was later debunked by Corona's defense team saying the chief justice only had five properties as stated in his Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth.

The one who made the call to put the Ombudsman on the witness stand may have just inadvertently sunk the CJ. I mean, for trial lawyers, it's a rule that you don't put a witness on the stand or ask a witness questions unless you already know what he or she intends to say.

I'm pretty sure Cuevas is giving the third degree to his co counsels now, especially Judd Roy (law dean, kuno).

for reference lang ... para kay cuevas ... baka sakali tsikoteer sya

for reference lang ... para kay cuevas ... baka sakali tsikoteer sya

I raise a technical issue... Which may be irrelevant sa casi ni CJ... But relevant to us all...

Granted na may constitutional basis si Ombudsman to do her work investigating CJ... Relevant ba malaman kung nauna ba nirequest ng Ombudsman from AMLAC yung records? Or was it AMLAC "volunteering" the records?

kay CJ malamang it wont matter sa botohan... But for us private citizens... Who may happen to have some money....


Lesson: don't cross the powers that be...

The Ombudsman can investigate any goverment official on a mere "report". The law specifically says that the AMLAC may only investigate on a court order. The ombudsman however counters it may request 'assistance' from any goverment agency including AMLAC. Which takes precedent, the court order or the request 'assistance? Should the Ombudsman have gotten a court order first?

Hopefully the BIR can't do the same to us lower citizens with such assistance...

As you've said the law mandate that office of the ombudsman can investigate on mere suspicion or report so we don't need to worry that BIR can do the same to us since they don't have the same mandate as the ombudsman...

Saka I don't think AMLC illegally obtained the documents, can AMLC even obtain bank documents illegally, eh banks reports to them suspicious or P500k and more deposits...
