Senator Jinggoy Estrada has faced three major plunder cases in his career, alongside multiple graft and bribery charges.
In 2001, he was charged with plunder for allegedly receiving jueteng protection money and diverting tobacco excise taxes. He was acquitted by the Sandiganbayan in 2007.
In 2014, he was charged with plunder and 11 counts of graft regarding the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) scam, involving P183 million in alleged kickbacks. He was acquitted of plunder in January 2024 but initially convicted of bribery. These bribery convictions were reversed in August 2024 due to lack of evidence; the 11 graft cases remain pending.
In May 2026, he was charged with plunder and additional graft counts for allegedly receiving P573 million in kickbacks from 2025 flood control project allocations. He was arrested on June 1, 2026, and remains in detention. He is currently serving a 90-day preventive suspension from his Senate seat.
