#DengGate: Atty. Persida V. Rueda-Acosta Knows Human Rights Better Than Atty. Chito Gascon

If someone really is doing the job as a Commission on Human Rights chairperson -- it's not Atty. Chito Gascon but Atty. Persida V. Rueda-Acosta Acosta. While Atty. Gascon only makes noise whenever it's convenient for him -- we have Atty. Acosta who is doing fair investigations. You can think of how she handled Kian Delos Santos' slay case with much less biases all the while CHR is asleep because its chairman is asleep.

Atty. Acosta knows that all human rights violations must be investigated. So why is the Public Attorney's Office stuck doing the check and balance work that CHR should be doing? It's no thanks to Atty. Gascon's lousy leadership. Yes, the problem is Atty. Gascon and not CHR. CHR just needs to be cleaned up. He should have investigated all human rights violations and put the rights of law abiding citizens first over that of criminals. Instead, he defends the guilty and leaves the innocent whenever it's convenient. 

Right now, we need to check for the human rights violations of the victims of #DengGate. That's why the bodies had to be exhumed to verify whether or not these people died as a result of the vaccine. If that's the case then it's time to consider #OrasNaPosasNa for former health secretary Janette Garin. It doesn't have to be soldiers or policemen who injected DengVaxia before CHR does any investigation. No, CHR should investigate all human rights violations regardless who the offender is.

Also, just who's granting the badly needed free legal help? Atty. Gascon? No. It's once again Atty. Acosta. She's offering free legal help to those whose human rights were violated by the #DengGate scandal. What is Atty. Gascon offering for the DengVaxia victims anyway? He's probably just telling them because it wasn't done by policemen or soldiers then he will not anything. Screw that kind of logic. Atty. Acosta sees human rights violations as they are and believes that the human rights organizations should investigate them all. She's more biased than Atty. Gascon? That's one of the most ridiculous statements I've heard.

If one should consider testing Atty. Acosta for a higher position then why not make CHR be her testing ground? Let her temporarily take over while somebody qualified takes over her at the PAO. This may be her testing ground to prepare her for higher office. Should she climb up the ladder in the judicial system she would have both PAO and CHR under her jurisdiction.
