Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago gestures as she explains her not guilty vote on Supreme Court Chief Justice Renato Corona at the conclusion of his impeachment trial in Manila May 29, 2012. The Philippine Senate voted on Tuesday to remove Corona, the country's top judge, in a landmark victory for President Benigno Aquino that should embolden his campaign to root out institutional corruption and could quicken the pace of economic reforms. Twenty out of 23 senators voted to oust the Supreme Court Chief Justice on charges of failing to declare his wealth, making him the first Filipino official to be removed by an impeachment court.
