Corruption does not stop at the gates of Malacañang — and it does not stop at the doors of Congress.

According to Boying Remulla, corruption inside the judiciary is also severe, driven not only by flawed institutions but by actors who exploit the system from within.

His warning was clear but measured:
This is not an indictment of all judges. Many serve with integrity.
But it is a recognition that corruption becomes most dangerous when it hides behind procedure, technicalities, and legal delay.

When cases collapse due to weak evidence, lobbying, or procedural maneuvering, justice may still appear “legal,” but public trust quietly erodes. Acquittal does not always equal innocence; sometimes it reflects gaps in prosecution, investigative failures, or influence that never appears on record.

The eagle sees the pattern across institutions:

• Power avoids scrutiny

• Process replaces accountability

• Delay becomes defense

And when justice slows, confidence breaks.

This moment matters because courts are meant to be the last line of protection, not another arena where corruption negotiates its survival.

Scripture does not mince words about this responsibility:

“Do not pervert justice; do not show partiality.”
— Deuteronomy 16:19

Agila does not accuse without proof.
But it does not ignore warnings either.

Because when corruption reaches the bench, the rule of law becomes fragile — and silence becomes dangerous.
