The wide publicity of the Hultman ,Chapman and Leino case in 1990 made Teehankee worldwide known in every nook and cranny...in every Filipino household, as an offender of such heinous crime. Many Filipinos symphatized with the plight of the poor young girl innocently walking her way home with friends on that fateful morning of June 13, 1990.
What are the terms and conditions in granting executive clemency as stated in our Constitution? Are they free from flaws? Then why this has created sudden furor and disputes and has put the President's prerogative in question. Did our president in any manner has abused any of her power in granting executive clemency? Did they ensure that the purpose for which this Presidential prerogative is intended achieved without maligning or offending the victim's family? Did the board made clear of the worthiness of the offender to regain freedom and rejoin society after years of serving his sentence?
What will happen now?
Let's hear it from VACC.
