How does it Feel?
What does it feel if you are the family of the Hultman and Chapman, if you heard on the news that the one who brutally killed your child just received a presidential clemency? Wound cause by events in life really heals in due time but when you received justice it seems that the healing process is fast. But after knowing that the perpetrator of the crime that causes your pain were released after it was granted “favor” from the government, what does the parents of this poor child feel? I guess it is undescribable pain! I don’t understand really how law in the Philippines is going? I feel sorry for the family of the victims. I hope it does not happen to the family of the government officials in the future so that they will not feel the same pain the victims are feeling right now.
What happen to our justice? It really shows that the justice is for the rich and powerful people only. I don’t know if the killer is a poor guy and a nobody, if the president will give the same treatment. Maybe not. The sad part on this event is nobody can do anything about this, the Senate, the Congress the family of the victim, just a hopeless situation! I can’t distinguised justice and injustice right now, it seems that they have the same meaning today and it is only in the Philippines!
