DOES THE DEATH OF ANGELO REYES ABSOLVES HIM AND HIS FAMILY FROM POSSIBLE CORRUPTION CASES? DO YOU AGREE?

It is sad that the Senate is not so keen in further investigating the culpability of the late Angelo Reyes and his family. It was already pronounced by no less that Sen. Jinggoy Estrada that he will not invite the family of the late Secretary.

What if the Reyes family indeed benefitted from the anomalous transactions in the AFP? Do we just turn a blind eye because we feel sorry for Secretary Reyes death? Do we just allow them to keep the money because we feel sorry for them? The money that is involved is peoples money, so we have the right to know the truth. It is interesting to know if how many soldiers died or got injured because the money that is supposed to be spent for their uniforms, armor or ammunitions was spent by corrupt Generals.

The investigation would have given the Reyes family a chance to clear their names. If they are not guilty, they should never be afraid to face the investigation.

AFTER SECRETARY ANGELO REYES COMMITTED SUICIDE WHAT'S NEXT?

I do hope that even with the death of Sec. Angelo Reyes's death, the investigation of the corruption in the military should continue. The money that was stolen are people's money so the people has the right to know who stole it and to make sure that whoever is the culprit will be punished.

The death of Sec. Reyes shouldn't stop the Senate from investigating even the wife of the late Secretary. His death does not exonerate him or his wife, plain and simple.
