Members of the House prosecution team in Vice President Sara Duterte's upcoming impeachment trial said that a delay in the proceedings doesn't equate to an advantage for the respondent.

Public prosecutor Akbayan Party-list Rep. Chel Diokno and prosecution panel spokesperson Kabataan Party-list Rep. Renee Co had this to say even as there appeared to be no immediate end in sight to the leadership impasse in the Senate. (Video courtesy of House of Representatives via Ellson Quismorio | MB)

00:00Since hanggang ngayon po ang sitwasyon sa Senate ay ang leadership remains to be contested, do you think this is
00:06an advantage for the defense team?
00:11I don't see that what is happening in the Senate will be an advantage to the defense team.
00:17This is about the evidence.
00:19At matagal na rin namin iniintay yung pagkakataon na ilatag ang ebidensya, hindi lang sa mga Senator Judge, kundi sa
00:27lahat ng mga Pilipino.
00:29And we are really in the process now of making sure that our presentations are done in a way that
00:35will be felt by everyone.
00:39Dagdag na lang din po.
00:42I think ang further delay ay disadvantage din to the defense.
00:46Dahil gusto natin yung mga ebidensya at sagot ng VP ng defense doon sa articles of impeachment na nanggaling sa
00:57citizens' complaints.
00:58At duly na process ng House Committee on Justice ay madispense with na.
01:04Kaya po ang gusto din natin matapos na yung paglilitis.
01:07Para sa punot-dulo po nito, kung anuman yung allegasyon may magtatatak.
01:14Alin dito yung mabigat, alin dito yung totoo, alin dito yung pwedeng isantabi na.
01:20Ang pagtutuloy-tuloy ng paglilitis will be supposedly to the advantage of the office of the vice president of the
01:27official therein.
01:28At lahat ng mga institusyon na humaharap ng mga gantong allegasyon.
01:33So, bagamat may mga gantong mga delays, gusto natin matuloy-tuloy na siya.
01:49So, bagamat may mga.
