MANILA - A Makati court has dropped the drug charges against members of the so-called Espinosa drug cartel, including Rolan "Kerwin" Espinosa, and Wu Tuan Yuan a.k.a. Peter Co. In a 13-page order dated December 17, Makati Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 64 Judge Gina M. Bibat-Palamos dismissed the charges "for failure of the prosecution to adduce evidence to overturn the presumption of innocence enjoyed by the herein accused." The court ruling granted the demurrers to evidence filed in July by Kerwin, Co, witness Marcelo L. Adorco, and Lovely A. Impal, questioning the sufficiency of the charges against them and seeking the dismissal of these charges. A demurrer to evidence is a motion to dismiss on the ground of insufficiency of evidence where a defendant cites that the evidence produced by the prosecution is insufficient, whether true or not, to make out a case. The group faced charges for violation of Republic Act 916
