Living a charmed life

Funny how Janet Lim Napoles of the JLN Group of Companies turns up again and again in the investigation of high-stake corruption cases.

First she figured out with her husband, retired Army Major Jaime Napoles, in the P3.8 million graft case in connection with the supply of substandard Kevlar helmets to the AFP. Then there was that infamous P728 million scam in Agriculture, of which investigation she admitted under intense questioning by the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee that she had set up dummy corporations to serve as conduit for the money.
