Punishing a handful while the perceived masterminds remain off the hook reeks of impunity.
After nearly 35 years, the Antipolo Regional Trial Court found three soldiers guilty beyond reasonable doubt of murdering labor leader Rolando Olalia and Leonor Alay-ay. It took 26 years before a handful of those implicated was taken into custody for which the Department of Justice (DOJ) created the latest prosecution panel against the accused elements of the military. Then another nine years passed before arriving at a conviction.
And when that conviction did arrive, it was justice but only partial, and delayed.
