Janet Lim Napoles who is the alleged master-mind behind the Pork Barrel Scam which hides the questionable use of 10-billion pesos. There is a live streaming of her at the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee hearing today, November 7, 2013.
Many livestream channels are already up for the viewing of millions of Filipinos worldwide to witness Napoles in the 'plunder case' or PDAF (Priority Development Assistance Fund).
Napoles is seen wearing a green long-sleeved polo with a bullet-proof vest over it. She claims a seat beside Justice Secretary Leila De Lima. Also, whistleblowers for the PDAF scam arrived before 10am in the morning, namely; Mary Arlene Baltazar, Marina Sula, Gertrudes Luy, Benhur Luy, Simonette Briones, and Merlina Suñas.
From the Public Attorney's Office (PAO), three lawyers were assigned to assist Napoles and arrived at 9am in the session hall.
Chairperson of the Blue Ribbon Committee, Senator Teofisto Guingona III, stated that the committee wanted to fill in the blanks on how did the government funds go to the 'wrong hands'. He also said that he expected the hearing would give way to the Senate in creating laws and regulations for the prevention of such incidents ever happening again.
