Chief Justice Renato Corona and his wife Cristina turned emotional at the conclusion of the sixth novena Mass held on the Supreme Court grounds Wednesday.
The couple were seen wiping tears as some 100 attendees, mostly judiciary employees, sang “The Impossible Dream.” The couple thanked their supporters after the Mass, which ended at around 6 p.m.
“This is not my personal fight, this is the fight of the judiciary and democracy. If this [fight] is only for me, there is a simple solution. But this is not my personal fight. We will make known what is right under our Constitution,” said Corona, who will go on trial at the Senate impeachment court starting January 16.
The Masses, which started on Friday, were sponsored by Solidarity of Sovereignty, a group calling for the preservation of the independence of the judiciary. Jerome Aning
