00:00Former Senator Laila Delima is no longer facing drug cases after she was acquitted in the third case yesterday.
00:07Based on the decision of the Muntilupa Regional Trial Court Branch 206,
00:11the prosecution found guilty beyond reasonable doubt that Delima and her four accomplices were the culprits.
00:17That's why the court gave the demerit to evidence or request of Delima's family
00:22to trash the case because the evidence of the prosecution is weak.
00:28The third case is about Delima's first involvement and use of New Bilibid Prison inmates
00:34to raise funds for her 2016 senatorial bid.
00:38Delima was first acquitted in February 2021 and May 2023 in cases related to illegal drug trading in Bilibid.
00:47Delima was jailed for more than six years in the PNP Custodial Center in Camp Krame
00:52before being released on bail in November 2023.
00:56According to former Justice Secretary Vitalyano Aguirre II,
00:59who was first in filing cases against Delima,
01:02he was lucky in the development of the case because Delima has been through a lot.
01:07We are trying to get the statement of former President Rodrigo Duterte by GMA Integrity News
01:12that he is the president of the case and that Delima was jailed.
01:19With the grant of our demerit to evidence, which is tantamount to acquittal,
01:24that means I am now completely free and vindicated.
01:29It's very liberating.
01:32Mr. Duterte, you are now responsible for your crimes against the people.
01:43I am just one victim.
01:46Thousands of Filipinos were killed in the past bloodshed and war on drugs.
