Plenary debates will complete Senate’s Mamasapano inquiry

WE laud Senate Minority Leader Juan Ponce Enrile for calling for the opening of plenary debates on the tri-committee report on the Senate’s Mamasapano inquiry. This is something Sen. Grace Poe Llamanzares did not bother to do, disappointing everyone except the people in Malacañang who want to squash any further public discussion on the matter. Why, we would like to know, did Ms. Poe suddenly zipped her lips after she announced her finding sometime during the inquiry that President Aquino must be held accountable for the massacre?

As if to help and please BS Aquino, she turned over the report to the Ombudsman, who expectedly wants its work on the massacre to be kept quiet and not lead to anything unpleasant for Mr. Aquino.
