Maria Ressa —NIÑO JESUS ORBETA Journalist Maria Ressa and Rappler Holdings Corp. (RHC) have been acquitted of their fifth and last tax evasion case, her latest legal victory over the slew of charges thrown at her by the previous administration of Rodrigo Duterte. Judge Ana Teresa-Cornejo Tomacruz of the Pasig Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 157 handed down the verdict on Tuesday, more than four years since this and four other similar tax evasion cases were filed by the Department of Justice (DOJ) in 2018 against Ressa, 59, and RHC, the corporate entity of Rappler.
