Kapunan: Defense tried to divert us from impeachment to criminal case

During the impeachment trial against Vice President Sara Duterte, counsel for the prosecution, Lorna Kapunan, accused the defense panel of attempting to steer the discussion towards unrelated criminal charges instead of focusing on the impeachment process. Kapunan highlighted that the defense was spreading misinformation about the evidence required for a conviction, thereby trying to confuse the public and deflect attention from the core issues. This move underscores the contentious nature of the proceedings and raises questions about the defense's tactics to undermine the legitimacy of the impeachment process.
