Talk:Antonio Gerona

Concerns about historical revisionism, in regards to the 2022 Philppine presidential election

I note of a popular claim made about Antonio Gerona, the late presiding judge of the Regional Trial Court in Naga City, and father of Philippine Vice President and 2022 presidential candidate, Leni Robredo, that her family was indirectly a beneficiary of Martial Law, for Gerona was appointed by Ferdinand Marcos as a judge in two local courts in the 80s.

This claim was made on Facebook by supporters and fan pages of the late president's son, former senator and rival presidential candidate, Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos, as a rebuttal against accusations by his opponents and Robredo's supporters of historical revisionism, and denial of his involvement during the 8-year period, and misinformation.

I have made some searching of news articles and documents during the time and not a single evidence has sprung up that he was even a supporter of Marcos, let alone his appointment seen as benefitting him and indirectly the vice president.

I implore fellow editors to check further for any historical documentation and testimonies to prove this claim, which I personally believe may be senseless one made to discredit Robredo's credentials, and a distraction over the Marcos' injustices. No citation was given by editors who wrote the claim in the article, and I raise a red flag of it for misinformation is being used maliciously for political gain, to the detriment of the Philippines' democracy.
