The reason for the delays in the erap trial

My comment, after reading this latest from Ellen Tordesillas:

i believe arroyo is planning to pardon erap after the guilty verdict is handed down. the admin delays in the erap trial (kontrolado ng administration ang speed ng trial, IMO) serves a purpose in lengthening erap's detention, cuz once na pardon na si erap, parang naparusahan na rin siya dahil sa tagal ng house arrest niya. this is done to appease the remaining angry edsa dos supporters of hers of the idea on an erap pardon.
