00:00Your Honor, what Attorney Allen said is preposterous.
00:06When he mentioned public safety, it's as if he has totally forgotten the physical structure of the accused.
00:13And the grant of bail being tantamount to setting a criminal free is a slip I may possibly expect from a new bar passer.
00:22A seasoned criminal lawyer should not loosely call an accused a criminal.
00:28The prosecution is clearly playing on fears and emotions.
00:32And supposes strong guilt of the accused is only anchored on the sole eyewitness testimony in which highly questionable.
00:43And most importantly, Attorney Lileth Matias deserves the chance to defend herself or should not be called or even referred to in passing as a criminal.
00:54Your Honor, let it be stated on the record and for Attorney Ignacio's benefit that nowhere in my previous statement did I ever call the accused a criminal.
01:04Unless the word tantamount doesn't mean anything anymore.
01:07Your Honor, that's all.
01:10Attorney Matias.
01:15Your Honor, I understand the repercussions of non-appearance resulting to a trial in absentia.
01:23Most importantly, I don't have a reason to flee nor hide.
01:27For I am confident that I can prove myself innocent before this court.
01:32I am more than determined to see this case through so that I can start going after my mother's real killer.
01:40Your Honor.
01:42Yes, Attorney Allen.
01:44Although the accused claims that she has no intentions of fleeing, unfortunately intentions alone is just not sufficient to ensure that she will not jump bail.
01:53In fact, it is the prosecution's duty to ensure that this community is protected, Your Honor.
01:59And in good conscience, we cannot allow to release someone who has already shown a potential for violence.
02:05Your Honor, I urge you to please consider the implications of granting bail and deny this claim.
02:12If only, if only that the court would send the message that the privilege of bail should only be reserved to those who truly deserve it.
