Corona Impeachment Trial: The Verdict for Renato Corona – Guilty: 20, Not Guilty: 3
The Senators have released their verdict on Tuesday, May 29, 2012, after 5 months of historic trial over alleged corruption of Chief Justice Renato Corona which saw him accused of hiding millions of dollars in assets.
Is he guilty or not guilty? Will he be convicted or acquitted?
To convict Corona, two-thirds of the entire senate or sixteen votes are needed. If eight senators would say otherwise, the Chief Justice will be automatically acquitted.
The results so far:
Guilty: 19
Not Guilty: 3
Abstain: 0
