Private prosecutor Reynaldo Robles on Thursday, Nov. 12, questioned witness Chadrin Parian over Vice President Sara Duterte's spouse, Atty. Manases Carpio, allegedly buying expensive shoes for child athletes, in relation to a basketball tournament in Malaysia.

During Duterte's impeachment trial, Robles asked for a photo to be displayed, showing each child, along with adults, posing with Nike shoe boxes.

During the cross-examination, Robles asked about Carpio's capability to buy expensive shoes, and whether it reflected the "simple life" expected of family members of public officials. (Video courtesy of senate of the Philippines)

00:20Yes.
00:24Yung sumunod po sa sequence ng pictures.
00:34So makikita po natin dito na hindi lang po yung mga bata ang inilibre ng sapatos ni Atty. Carfio.
00:43Tama po ba?
00:44Tama po.
00:45Opo. Kasi may mga babae pa nga ho dito na may mga sapatos na dala.
00:49Tama po ba?
00:50Tama po.
00:50Okay. Ngayon, ang tanong ko po, sabi nyo po kanina, kayo rin po naman kahit pa paano nakakaangat sa buhay.
00:57Di po ba?
01:00Sakto lang po naman.
01:01Ilang beses po kayong naglibre ng sapatos na kagaya nito?
01:05Well, may nabigyan din lang po kung mga sapatos.
01:08Pero yung ganito, na ganyang kadami.
01:10Ah, it's not.
01:11Na 256,000.
01:12Hindi ko po kaya yan.
01:13Hindi nyo po kaya.
01:15Okay.
01:15Ngayon, ito yung tanong ko.
01:17Kaya ko gustong i-flash kanina yung nakalagay sa batas.
01:20Ito po bang ganitong paggastos ng 256,000 pesos para man libre ng sapatos?
01:29Eh, ito po ba'y halimbawa ng isang kapamilya ng public official na namumuhay ng simple at payak?
01:45Ito po ba'y halimbawa nun?
01:50Can you repeat the question, sir?
01:51Ang nakalagay po sa batas kasi natin, ang isang public official at ang miyembro ng kanyang pamilya ay dapat they
02:01should live simple lives.
02:04They should avoid ostentatious display of wealth in any form.
02:11Ito po ba'y isang example ng simple at payak na pamumuhay?
02:19Maglibre ka ng sapatos ng lahat ng tao dyan?
02:23Objection, Your Honor.
02:24Calls for an opinion, Your Honor.
02:26Well, Your Honor, this witness was presented exactly to try to prove.
02:30It's also misleading, Your Honor.
02:32It is not, Your Honor.
02:33It's not misleading, Counsel.
02:35Your Honor, it's misleading.
02:37The witness, apologies, Your Honor.
02:38The witness already testified earlier na tumulong, Your Honor.
02:41Already testified what, Attorney Justin?
02:43Tumulong.
02:49What do you mean, Attorney Justin?
02:50Earlier, Your Honor, the witness testified that
02:53ang ibang mga bata walang kaya.
02:55I think that's it.
02:56What's the objection, Your Honor?
02:58What's the objection, Your Honor?
02:59I'll have to overrule your objection, Attorney Justin.
03:02So, ito po ba'y halimbawa?
03:04Kung alam niyo po, kung may opinion po kayo, pananaw ka ognay dyan, or wala.
03:10You may, you're free to answer, whatever you said.
03:12I cannot comment on the way the Attorney Menasas was thinking.
03:21Tama po.
03:22My opinion po is, hindi ko po alam, I cannot answer for him po.
03:26You cannot answer for him.
03:27I'm not asking you to answer for him.
03:28I'm just asking you, if you consider this,
03:31kung ito po ay makukonsidera na simpleng pamumuhay,
03:36yung paglibre ng ganyang kadaming sapato sa napakadaming tao.
03:41Well, I think deserve na mo po ng mga bata,
03:44saka ng ibang mga magulang.
03:45Wala po akong doubt na deserve ng mga bata.
03:49Pero hindi lang naman yung bata yung minlow out niya dito eh.
03:53Lahat nung nandun.
03:55Yan ba ay halimbawa ng simpleng pamumuhay
03:59na nakatakda sa ating batas
04:01para sa pamilya ng public officer?
04:04Your Honor, the witness already answered.
04:06Witness already answered.
04:07You've made your point, Attorney Ray.
04:09I think that would be all for the witness, Your Honor.
04:24You've made your point, Attorney Ray.
04:25You've made your point, Attorney Ray.
