00:00Your Honor, what Attorney Allen said is preposterous.
00:11When he mentioned public safety, it's as if he has totally forgotten the physical structure
00:16of the accused.
00:17And the grant of bail being tantamount to setting a criminal free is a slip I may possibly
00:24expect from a new bar passer.
00:27A seasoned criminal lawyer should not loosely call an accused a criminal.
00:34The prosecution is clearly playing on fears and emotions, and supposes strong guilt of
00:39the accused is only anchored on the sole eyewitness testimony in which highly questionable.
00:49And most importantly, Attorney Lileth Matias deserves the chance to defend herself or should
00:55not be called or even referred to in passing as a criminal.
01:00Your Honor, let it be stated on the record, and for Attorney Ignacio's benefit, that nowhere
01:06in my previous statement did I ever call the accused a criminal, unless the word tantamount
01:11doesn't mean anything anymore.
01:13Your Honor, that's all.
01:16Attorney Matias?
01:21Your Honor, I understand the repercussions of non-appearance, resulting to a trial in
01:27absentia.
01:29Most importantly, I don't have a reason to flee nor hide, for I am confident that I can
01:34prove myself innocent before this court.
01:37I am more than determined to see this case through, so that I can start going after my
01:41mother's real killer.
01:46Your Honor?
01:47Yes, Attorney Allen?
01:49Although the accused claims that she has no intentions of fleeing, unfortunately, intentions
01:53alone is just not sufficient to ensure that she will not jump bail.
01:59In fact, it is the prosecution's duty to ensure that this community is protected, Your Honor,
02:04and in good conscience, we cannot allow to release someone who has already shown a potential
02:09for violence, Your Honor.
02:11I urge you to please consider the implications of granting bail and deny this claim.
02:17If only, if only that the court would send the message that the privilege of bail should
02:24only be reserved to those who truly deserve it.
02:47Having heard the oral arguments presented by both parties regarding the bail petition
03:08for the accused, Attorney Lillet Matias, I find it prudent to allow both parties to
03:16have more time to enable them to be able to present more witnesses to bolster their position.
03:31Clerk of Court, please schedule another hearing within two weeks' time.
03:39As you know, this is a system procedure, so the court will decide within 30 days from
03:49when we first convened.
03:53Until then, Attorney Lillet Matias remains in custody.
04:00This court is adjourned.
