Statement of Usec. Janella Ejercito Estrada (on the acquittal of Sen. Jinggoy)

STATEMENT OF USEC. JANELLA EJERCITO ESTRADA

The acquittal of my father, Senator Jinggoy Ejercito Estrada in the plunder case has lifted a heavy burden that we, as a family, have carried for far too long. This legal battle has tested my family’s resilience but our unwavering strength and determination in proving his innocence have been our guiding light.

My dad was not just acquitted, he is vindicated. Hindi man ganap ang pagkatig ng Sandiganbayan justices, lubos pa rin ang pasasalamat ng aming pamilya dahil napawalang sala siya sa kasong plunder. We intend to exhaust all available legal remedies to prove his innocence and to eventually clear his name under our justice system.
