ABS-CBN NEWS - The House prosecution panel on Thursday denied saying that Chief Justice Renato Corona has 45 real estate properties. During questioning, Senator-judge Francis Escudero said he has counted so far 18 properties, excluding the 6 parking lots the prosecution said were not properly disclosed in the statement of assets, liabilities, and net worth. "You announced to the media, there are 45 properties," he asked lead House prosecutor Iloilo Rep. Niel Tupas Jr. "We just want to put on record that the 45 did not come from the prosecution. It was a letter,,," Tupas replied before being cut off due to loud groans from spectators inside the Senate.
