Justice Secretary relieved Pemberton episode is over

The Bureau of Immigration stated that Pemberton “was deported and boarded a military aircraft bound for the United States at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport at exactly 9:14 a.m. on Sept. 13.”“I am relieved to see the end of the Pemberton episode.

In 2015, the Olongapo City Regional Trial Court convicted Pemberton of homicide for Laude’s death. He was ordered to pay P4.32 million for loss earning capacity; P155,250 for actual damages, P75,000 for civil indemnity; P75,000 for moral damages and P35,000 for exemplary damages. But Pemberton withdrew his SC appeal and it was granted by the High Court. The withdrawal meant he accepted the verdict of the trial court as affirmed by the CA.

In ordering Pemberton’s release, the trial court ruled that he had served a total of 405 days during his preventive imprisonment and 1,737 days during service of his 10-year prison term.
