00:00First of all, I would like to clarify that impeachment is not like a criminal case that proves beyond reasonable doubt.
00:14Justice Isagani Cruz said that impeachment is a method of national inquest into the conduct of public men.
00:30So what this means is that the conduct of the officials, especially the impeachable officers, is being looked at.
00:44Because they have a high position and the conduct that they are asking for should also be high.
00:53That is why they were chosen.
00:56So in any event, if they are convicted, they will not be imprisoned here.
01:04Although, of course, that does not mean that they cannot be prosecuted.
01:09That is why I believe that based on what we have laid out in the committee hearing,
01:16based on what people have seen in the live video where he threatened our President, the First Lady, and the Speaker of the House,
01:32I believe that the evidence is strong to convict him of impeachment.
01:41We are not yet talking about specific strategies.
01:48Because first of all, there are many private law firms that are volunteering to help.
01:58So we will first decide what private lawyers we will include here.
02:05So we will wait for this to happen and of course, we will ask for their opinions.
02:12Right now, we are still in preparation.
02:15So that in the event that the Senate suddenly calls,
02:22or at least, we will continue to collect evidence so that our case will become stronger.
