Wonder how Paco was implicated in the case if he was indeed in Manila on July 17, 1997. How was he pointed out as one of the assailants? The defense team had denied knowing the Chiong sisters daw.
This case is still a big question mark until now. Pieces of evidence everywhere. Wonder what really happened to the Chiong sisters.
Paco and Aznar came from wealthy clans in Cebu rin. If they were not there when the crimes were committed, why them?
They were known to be deliquents of Cebu and the policemen were pressured to provide suspects during that time. Maybe they were easy targets? I didn’t know this story existed and I’m shocked and saddened that innocent men were convicted for a crime they did not commit. The Chiong family definitely was hiding something, there was an angle that was not explored.
#giveuptomorrow was painful to watch. I feel bad for Paco just as much as for the murdered sisters. I hope in another life maging masaya at maganda ang maging buhay nila. I can’t stop myself from crying. I feel for Paco and his family. Lalo na sa magulang nya.
Private airplanes need clearance before they can take off. If you’re implying he flew from manila yo cebu to do that heinous crime very early morning and they came back to Manila to take examinations at 830am, you seriously need to learn Math.
why don't you reopen the case so that we will find out what really happened. Yes , if you are boarding an airline whether you own them, you need clearance. There are receipts , documents to show your flight. Alangan naman nag speed boat.
WALANG MAIPAKITANG EVIDENCE NA LUMIPAD SIYA SA CEBU NUNG TIME NA IYON. POWERFUL DIN ANG MGA CHIONG KASI FRIEND NILA SI ERAP SO KUNG MERON TALAGANG RECORD KAYA NILA IYONG HALUNGKATIN PERO WALA TALAGA. IYON IYONG WEIRD.
11:59, that's the case ang pinakamalakas na evidence nila is yung testimony ni Rusia aside from that wala na. Rusia claimed that he was with Paco and the others at that time and na ginawa nila yung krimen after that? Pinalaya lang naman sya despite admitting na they raped and killed the chiong sisters and guess what? Naging friends sila nung mother ng Chiong Sisters and the mother even gave cake and gifts even money to Rusia. There's obviously something going on! How can a mother befriend her daughter's alleged killer and rapist?. about 40 witnesses testified na they're with Paco at that time his classmates even professors and security guard of Paco's condo and ininvalidate lang ng korte lahat :)
That's true. I don't believe chiong. The evidences and the witnessesare just enough to prove paco is innocent. But the justice system Philippines is having back then is a shame.
Madaming evidence na nasa Manila si Paco while ang Chiong sisters nasa Cebu nang maganap yun. Kaso di pinayagan na magtestify yung mga teachers & classmates niya including Paco which is very sketchy.
Ngayon ko lang nabasa about sa story na’to so I did a little research as to what happened, and I felt sad for Paco, ang daming evidence pero nabaliwala. :( haaaay
2:42 omg are you for real? nawalan sila ng mga anak - pinatay at nirape. lahat sila biktima, kasama na ung naaccuse ng walang kasalanan. may pa "will pay" ka pang nalalaman dian. SMH
9:58 watch Give Up Tomorrow so you'll know why so many are seeking justice for the (mis) convicted. there was no proof that it was Marijoy's body that was found and until now, the other sisters' body is still allegedly MIA.
1:26 ang chiong family ba ang nag accused o may witness? Im sorry this is an honest question. Bakit parang chiong pa ang may kasalanan wherein sila namatayan ng 2 anak?
2:42 really pay for what they did? All of us doesn’t really know what transpired so for you to say that is just unbelievable. Namatay, Pinatay rather, ang 2 nilang anak and up to now unrecovered pa rin ang isang katawan. Have a heart.
3:30am, The bodies were not found. We're not even sure if the dead body was Marijoy's! And The Chiong and prosecution manipulated everything! I have a heart, and I feel for the innocent souls who until now pay for a crime they did not commit. They presented strong evidences!
in the first place, walang case kung tutuusin, missing lang ang sisters and bigla na lang nagkakaso na kinidnap tas rape and murder pa, pero wala naman talagang strong evidence na kidnapping nga.
He was the alleged mastermind of the rape and murder case of the chiong sisters. But if you do some research about it, you will know that he really is innocent! He was convicted of the crimes he didn’t commit!
Main suspect of the killing and disappearance of the chiong sisters. Watch Give Up Tomorrow, may full sa yt, to see why he was wrongfully accused and jailed for nearly 20 years.
yes thanks 1:13 i remember the chiong sisters case but never bothered to follow thru on the story. this is the first time im learning about the Give Up Tomorrow docu (is it a docu?) and im definitely curious. I will watch it too. This is why i like coming here in FP page, you learn something new everytime di lang puro chismisan hehe 😊
Naalala ko itong tragedy na ito. I went to the same university as the Chiong sisters. Nasa first year college ako when this happened. Grabe ang news na ito. Then na convict yun Chiong 7 and after a year yata ( not sure sa date), nag suicide yung judge na nag convict sa suspects.
Hindi po yon suiciden FYI lng po. Pinatay po ang judge pero pinalabas nila na suicide. I would know because my aunt was the HR director of Waterfront hotel. He was forced to write that suicide note para palabasin talaga na suicie, but in reality, he was murdered
If the forensic investigators are smart, they would know if the suicide note is written by the person on his/her own volition or was just forced to do it.
If I were Paco,why would I want to go home sa pinas!? so injustice!!!nkakahiya ang pinas khit grade 1 iprrsent mo mga evidence for sure alam na impossible ung binibintang nila..
unang una hindi kawalan yang si Paco dito sa Pilipinas dapat nga hindi na lang iallow yan sa bansang ito. Itapon nyo yan sa Spain.Swerte pa nga at walang death penalty nung panahong naconvict siya.
Unfortunately, the case is considered closed na (with finality) since the Supreme Court has decided on both parties' appeals. So, hindi na talaga pwede ang re-trial dahil umabot na sa highest court.
Nakakulong nga c paco sa Spain pero nakakalabas cya pag gusto niya like nung tumanggap cya ng award kuno. San ka nakakita ng convicted rapist-murderer na nakakalabas sa kulungan para tumanggap ng award?
in many progressive places, prison is a form of rehabilitation so that prisoners are useful to society if/when they come out. in that way, tax payers money are going towards bettering the society. unlike in the philippines, where they are treated horribly with no preparation for them to be reintegrated back into society.
lately kolng napanuod ang Give Up Tomorrow kasi nga nabasa ko na showing itong Chiong movie, parang naawa ako ky paco kasi after ko napanuod parang naniwala ako na he was wrongly accused. ndi nga sya until now aamin sa crime kahit na palayain sya in exchange of his admission.
IN FIRST WORLD COUNTRIES KASI THEY GIVE CONVICTS A CHANCE TALAGA. HE'S A CHEF NOW. PERO HE GOES BACK INSIDE NG GABI. MERON DIN KAYA SIYA NUNG NILALAGAY SA PAA PARANG SA US?
Wait lang ha, while I understand that some of you want justice for Paco, why are you so angry with the Chiong family? I bet you watched that documentary in YouTube (which by the way is directed by someone close to Paco) tapos naniwala na kayo agad. Tapos yung iba nagtheorize pa na buhay pa rin si Jacqueline based sa pictures sa account ni Mrs. Chiong sa facebook (that girl turned out to be another family member lang pala). I sincerely hope justice will be served for BOTH parties. While we believe what we want to believe sana di tayo magkalat ng di totoo.
I don't know ha, pero the fact that he's in school here in Manila on the day of the murder, which were proven by classmates and professors, isn't that enough evidence na wala sya sa Cebu?
Same sentiments. ive seen the docu, pero hindi ako nadala kahit 40 pa sa classmates niya tumestigo for him. unless kasama niyo siya 24hrs. anlapit lang ng cebu sa manila by plane. lalo na private plane. hindi mahirap si paco.
bata pa kasi ako nung pumutok ang kasong ito, parang Vizconde Massacre pero ito ang katapat nila sa Cebu. Celebrated case, marami ang sumubaybay kaya hindi natin masasabi na inocent si Paco based on his own documentary.
the chiong sisters were raped and murdered. ano tingin nyo dyan moromoro eh ang yaman nila paco aznar yon. mga friends kauo ng pamilya ni paco. you people shut-up or else kayo mananqgot sa mga pinalalabas nyong mali. For Gods sake manahimik kayo!
Chiong Family had connections too. They were powerful especially that time. They had the President of the Philippines with them. It wasn’t a fair trial. They did not even allow Paco to testify. God sees everything and in the end, justice will prevail. And those who denied these innocent men of their rights will serve what’s due for them.
2:33 just a casual observer who's doing some research. mgresearch k dn po. and nope im not a relative nor a friend. and nope i didnt watch give up tomorrow also. we want justice for chong sisters. but clearly paco deserves justice too.
kala naman nitong mga mayayaman na ito ma twist nila yung storya dahil hindi na masyado alam ng mga kabataan ito sa panahon ngayon. Fact is guilty ang hatol ng judge at may pumatay sa judge after niya hatulan. Scary
Then the suspects turned out to be the victim? Paco belongs to the Osmena clan, one of the richest in Cebu.. their family is influential din.. kaya nga nailipat sa Spain si Paco eh.. How would you believe the documentary they made na Give Up Tomorrow, the fact that it was made by Paco's friends..
I understand Chiong Family because they want justice for their daughters pero to convict an innocent man, then you didn’t get any justice. Why did they refuse for reopening the case or allowing for the DNA to be tested on that dead body? Bakit lahat nirefuse nila? Even the constitutional rights of the accused were denied. Bakit hindi siya pinagtestify, along with other witnesses. Why they were prematurely arrested without solid evidences? Nailipat si Paco, because they seek help sa Spain, as their last resort kasi bigo sila dito. If they were that influential, eh di sana they didn’t have to do that! He was supposedly on deathrow, only saved when death penalty was abolished. Hindi sya ganung ka influential as what you all trying to imply. Again, the chiong family was in strong connection with the President at that time!
My umamin nga na nag rape sa chiong sisters, pero anung ginawa? Pinalaya kasi dw umamin? Tapos malayang nkakapunta sa bahay ng nanay ng chiong sisters? Kng ikaw nanay ka at na rape anak mo, kakaibiganin mo ang rapist? Tuwang tuwa ka na binibisita ka ng rapist?
on the other hand, alam nyo din ba yung connections ng Chiong family kung ano ang hanap buhay nila prior to what happened? so I think it is better to investigate all of them.
kanina ka pa. yobg film na sinasabi nyo was directed and made by someone close to paco wag bilugin ang ulo ng mga readers dito na hibdi familiar sa case. mga taga cebu alam nila ang totoo. please lang.
oo nga kala nitong mga ito just because matagal na yung kasong yan, mabibilog niyo mga tao.There was a trial and he was found guilty. So ganun talaga buhay kung mahirap ka malamang sa alamang bulok ka sa bilangguan sa Pilipinas e may connection din yung Paco kaya hayahay sa Spain kesa nga naman mabulok sa Pilipinas.
Teh 7:43 wag galit na galit agad. Magbasa din bago magreact. Nabasa ang sabi ni 2:43 oh. Anong film? Binabasa na ba ang film ngayon? Pano ka magiging credible kung ganyan ka??
9:22 ateng di mo getz? nasabi ni 7:43 dahil si 2:43 obviously nakapagsabi ng ganyan because of the movie. kung wala yong movie eh saan kumuha ng idea yong si 2:43. isip isp din. parang di mo alam yong tinatawag na domino effect ah!
I just hope na yung movie will show all the sides of the story. Usually playing safe ang production when it comes to high profile crime case na movie. Dapat matapang silang ipakita kung ano talaga yung nangyari sa case.
hmm hindi naman. I just do my own research din. While I feel bad for the Chiong family, I also feel bad for Paco and his family if he was wrongly accused. nanakawan din sya ng future. tsaka ung documentary na sinasabi, kahit na gawa ng kamag anak nya, strong unf prinesent nila na interviews and evidence. so yah, fishy tlga ung case na toh . hayst.
i will correct you. no, im in no way connected to the convicts. im from cebu and one of those who cheered when they were sentenced. but after seeing give up tomorrow, ive changed my stand. you would also see it on different socmed platforms that most cebuanos feel the same as i do.
you should at least watch the docu give up tomorrow.. i symphatized the victims pero para ikulong ang mga inocente masabi lang na solved ang case eh ibang usapan naman yun.
meron dito nagpapabilog sa ulo ng mga tao kala nila makakalimutan ng mga tao yung nangyari sa Chiong sisters. Hanggang ngayon hindi na matagpuan yung bangkay nung isang babae.
Even if the docu was made by a relative of Paco, the video clips were from real and raw events. not re-enactments whatsoever. They were not given a fair trial in the first place. Thus the documentary.
Pag pinagtatangol convict kamaganak agad? papano kung injustince naman talaga? It was a controversial case kasi ginamit ang media. Pressured maghanap ng suspect. Binaliwala ng judge lahat ng presented proofs ng suspect.
Justice will only be attained if the murderer pays for the crime. So KUNG totoong innocent si paco, same lang ang justice for chiong sisters and justice for paco- we all want the truth to come out and the rapist-murderer to be convicted. Wag magaway and wag na magshade. These people are all victims
Question is Was there really Rape and Murder. It was never proven that the body found was one of the sisters. even the judge (who allegedly committed suicide) said that himself.
that's what you get when you lie and harm innocent people. conscience will probably eat you up and haunt you inside, suicide or not, may true justice be served. and the judge well his conscience can only tell.
gusto ko kayong paalalahanan na ang ganitong mga kuda ay wala ng merito dahil tapos na ang kaso. Kahit magkukuda pa kayo ng injustice, san ang evidence ninyo?so wag nating bilugin ang mga tao through trial by publicity and by watching a movie. Let the court decide.
Let the court decide? Then let the case be reopened. It would be better because the people who convicted Paco back then are no longer in position. Remember, Chief justice of SC was relaated to Mrs Chiong too.
correct, let us investigate both sides. Saan ang merits ng kasong ito kasi parang pati judge nito unstable or can be called a mental case dahil nagpakamatay bigla. Something or someone powerful manipulated this case. This has to be reopened.Ano ang negosyo ng mga mayayamang pamilyang ito? Both camps seemed influential
I'm so sorry for the Chiong sisters and for this Paco as well, but I would like to know aside from witnesses, were there any CCTV footage that time showing time stamps that would present evidence that Paco was in Manila and not in Cebu, same way that as for the Chiong sisters, what happened to DNA, swab tests? these are important details to consider and not judging the merits of the case just by watching hearsay etc. or movies from both camps. If they have enough evidence,then they should just reopen the case.
THE CENTER OF CULINARY ARTS IN MANILA ACTUALLY SHOWED AN ATTENDANCE SHEET (PARANG COMPUTERIZED PA SIGURO IYONG ID NA NILA IYONG PARANG SA OFFICE) NA PACO WAS IN MANILA WHEN THE INCIDENT HAPPENED. TAPOS LAHAT NG CLASSMATES (IN FAIRNESS, THEY ALL SPOKE GOOD ENGLISH. ALAM MONG MAY MGA KAYA) NI PACO SAID HE WAS ACTUALLY IN MANILA. PERO IYONG JUDGE AYAW NIYA SILANG PAKINGGAN. NAKAKALOKA! MAY PICTURES PA ACTUALLY NA KASAMA NG MGA FRIENDS NIYA.
For justice. There were no hard evidence but 7 men were convicted of something just because of a witness that was not even credible.
Fyi the witness was a drug addict and a convicted felon in the us. And his statements were changing everytime. When he was being cross-examined ng defense, he acted sick so no one can question him.
Also, all other witnesses were paid. Tumatawa pa nga si Mrs. Chiong stating that 1k or 2k pesos is not a bribe. Imagine how much ang halaga ng 1k 20+yrs ago.
Also, di ako kamag-anak or friend or taga-cebu. I did my research lang.
Justice for Paco??? Revionism? I grew up in Cebu.. Grabe ang pagkasalbahe niyan together with his gang like that Aznar scion even before the horrifying Chiong sister murders. Paco wss a LOW LIFE THUG ..LITERALLY A MONSTER.
@ 8:48, hindi nya dine-deny na salbahe sya. Hindi rin kinakaila ng magulang ni Paco na may mga nagawa syang hindi maganda in the past. Pero para sabihin na nang-rape at pumatay sya, walang ebidensya kundi yang inconsistent statements ni Rusia.
Minsan matutuong maging objective.
Kung meron DNA evidence na may sperm ni Paco na nakita sa bangkay, o kaya naman flight records na magpapatunay na pmunta sya sa Cebu before or close sa time of murder, balikan mo ko.
Kagaya nga ng sinabi ni 2:17 "guilty without reasonable doubt"
Reopen? Convicted by the Supreme court yan. Have you read the decision of the supreme court? That documentary was made by friends/relatives of Paco. Syempre they will twist it to favor paco.
LOL BUT IT WAS CLEARLY A MISTRIAL. OKAY LANG SANA MACONVICT. PERO DIOS KO HINDI MAN LANG KINUNSIDER ANG EVIDENCE NINA PACO. TAPOS PINANIWALAAN IYONG RUSIA NA NAKULONG NA SA US. DI BA PWEDENG I-QUESTION NUNG MGA ABUGADO NILA PACO HIS CREDIBILTY?
AT SINABI DIN NUNG JUDGE NA WALA SIYANG MAKITANG CONCRETE EVIDENCE NA MINURDER AT GINAHASA SILA KAYA LIFE NA LANG IYONG HATOL NIYA. NAKAKALOKA. WALA PALANG EVIDENCE E BAKIT MAY HATOL PA RIN?
Let him have a fair trial. Anong klaseng trial ba yang pinagmamalaki mo? eh ni hindi kinonsider ung mga witnesses and Paco's testimonies! Iniisip mo iitwist nila? eh ung prosecution nga ang nagtwist eh!
I think to be fair in giving opinion, people must also read the SC decision completely to know the reason why 1. Paco's friends and their testimonies werent accepted 2. Why his alibi didnt check out 3. Why Rusia became star witness 4. Why there was a lack of cross examination 5. How the physical evidence corroborated with his (Rusia) testimony.
Some but not all issues mentioned in the docu was answered in that decision. Its a pretty good read guys.
Its funny how did the Mother of Chiong sisters just forgave Rusia even giving him money and clothes after.. forgiving is one thing but being close to one person who also killed ur daughters is one thing...joketime?
Yung give up tomorrow kasi, napaka factual, based talaga sa actual scenes, clips, news, documentaries...kaya napaka informative..eh ung kabilang partido, puro kwento, puro sabi sabi so anong papaniwalaan ng tao..
Bakit artista ang binabash? They just portrayed the role.
ReplyDeleteYan ang diko magets actually sa mga tao. Parang mga ewan din.
DeleteWell to answer that some actors have their high standard morales that's why it's quite disappointing that Meg accepted that project
DeleteIt’s because actors should have a certain standard sa roles na tatanggapin.
DeleteWe will not support this movie. #justiceforpaco #giveuptomorrow

DeleteChiong Family had connections too. They were powerful especially that time. They had the President of the Philippines with them. It wasn’t a fair trial. They did not even allow Paco to testify. God sees everything and in the end, justice will prevail. And those who denied these innocent men of their rights will serve what’s due for them.
Delete2:33 just a casual observer who's doing some research. mgresearch k dn po. and nope im not a relative nor a friend. and nope i didnt watch give up tomorrow also. we want justice for chong sisters. but clearly paco deserves justice too.
Deletekala naman nitong mga mayayaman na ito ma twist nila yung storya dahil hindi na masyado alam ng mga kabataan ito sa panahon ngayon. Fact is guilty ang hatol ng judge at may pumatay sa judge after niya hatulan. Scary
DeleteThen the suspects turned out to be the victim?
DeletePaco belongs to the Osmena clan, one of the richest in Cebu.. their family is influential din.. kaya nga nailipat sa Spain si Paco eh..
How would you believe the documentary they made na Give Up Tomorrow, the fact that it was made by Paco's friends..
I understand Chiong Family because they want justice for their daughters pero to convict an innocent man, then you didn’t get any justice. Why did they refuse for reopening the case or allowing for the DNA to be tested on that dead body? Bakit lahat nirefuse nila? Even the constitutional rights of the accused were denied. Bakit hindi siya pinagtestify, along with other witnesses. Why they were prematurely arrested without solid evidences? Nailipat si Paco, because they seek help sa Spain, as their last resort kasi bigo sila dito. If they were that influential, eh di sana they didn’t have to do that! He was supposedly on deathrow, only saved when death penalty was abolished. Hindi sya ganung ka influential as what you all trying to imply. Again, the chiong family was in strong connection with the President at that time!
DeleteMy umamin nga na nag rape sa chiong sisters, pero anung ginawa? Pinalaya kasi dw umamin? Tapos malayang nkakapunta sa bahay ng nanay ng chiong sisters? Kng ikaw nanay ka at na rape anak mo, kakaibiganin mo ang rapist? Tuwang tuwa ka na binibisita ka ng rapist?
Deleteon the other hand, alam nyo din ba yung connections ng Chiong family kung ano ang hanap buhay nila prior to what happened? so I think it is better to investigate all of them.
DeleteAt tatawagin mo pang boy next door 2:08 Magdududa ka talag dun sa nanay nila eh.
Deletereopen the case
ReplyDeleteKung nabasa nyo ung God sees but wait ito ang perfect example kay Paco
ReplyDeletekanina ka pa. yobg film na sinasabi nyo was directed and made by someone close to paco wag bilugin ang ulo ng mga readers dito na hibdi familiar sa case. mga taga cebu alam nila ang totoo. please lang.
Delete743,ano ang totoo?
DeleteTaga Cebu? Eh sila nga ang nagsshare ng documentary eh.
Delete1:58 taga cebung close kay paco...wag gullible teh...aznar osmena yang di paco.
Deleteoo nga kala nitong mga ito just because matagal na yung kasong yan, mabibilog niyo mga tao.There was a trial and he was found guilty. So ganun talaga buhay kung mahirap ka malamang sa alamang bulok ka sa bilangguan sa Pilipinas e may connection din yung Paco kaya hayahay sa Spain kesa nga naman mabulok sa Pilipinas.
DeleteTeh 7:43 wag galit na galit agad. Magbasa din bago magreact. Nabasa ang sabi ni 2:43 oh. Anong film? Binabasa na ba ang film ngayon? Pano ka magiging credible kung ganyan ka??
Delete9:22 ateng di mo getz? nasabi ni 7:43 dahil si 2:43 obviously nakapagsabi ng ganyan because of the movie. kung wala yong movie eh saan kumuha ng idea yong si 2:43. isip isp din. parang di mo alam yong tinatawag na domino effect ah!
DeleteI just hope na yung movie will show all the sides of the story. Usually playing safe ang production when it comes to high profile crime case na movie. Dapat matapang silang ipakita kung ano talaga yung nangyari sa case.
ReplyDeleteHalatang halata naman un karamihan dito! Kaloka. Mga kamag anak to ng mga convict!!!
ReplyDeletehmm hindi naman. I just do my own research din. While I feel bad for the Chiong family, I also feel bad for Paco and his family if he was wrongly accused. nanakawan din sya ng future. tsaka ung documentary na sinasabi, kahit na gawa ng kamag anak nya, strong unf prinesent nila na interviews and evidence. so yah, fishy tlga ung case na toh . hayst.
Deletei will correct you. no, im in no way connected to the convicts. im from cebu and one of those who cheered when they were sentenced. but after seeing give up tomorrow, ive changed my stand. you would also see it on different socmed platforms that most cebuanos feel the same as i do.
DeleteHave you watched the docu?
Deleteyou should at least watch the docu give up tomorrow.. i symphatized the victims pero para ikulong ang mga inocente masabi lang na solved ang case eh ibang usapan naman yun.
Deletemeron dito nagpapabilog sa ulo ng mga tao kala nila makakalimutan ng mga tao yung nangyari sa Chiong sisters. Hanggang ngayon hindi na matagpuan yung bangkay nung isang babae.
DeleteEven if the docu was made by a relative of Paco, the video clips were from real and raw events. not re-enactments whatsoever. They were not given a fair trial in the first place. Thus the documentary.
DeleteI AM ILOCANO SO HINDI KO KAANO-ANO SI PACO PERO PATI SI MARENG WINNIE E HINDI RIN SOLVED TALAGA SA OUTCOME NG TRIAL.
DeletePag pinagtatangol convict kamaganak agad? papano kung injustince naman talaga? It was a controversial case kasi ginamit ang media. Pressured maghanap ng suspect. Binaliwala ng judge lahat ng presented proofs ng suspect.
ReplyDeleteTRUE!
DeleteJustice will only be attained if the murderer pays for the crime. So KUNG totoong innocent si paco, same lang ang justice for chiong sisters and justice for paco- we all want the truth to come out and the rapist-murderer to be convicted. Wag magaway and wag na magshade. These people are all victims
ReplyDeletereopen nyo ang case
DeleteQuestion is Was there really Rape and Murder. It was never proven that the body found was one of the sisters. even the judge (who allegedly committed suicide) said that himself.
Deletethat's what you get when you lie and harm innocent people. conscience will probably eat you up and haunt you inside, suicide or not, may true justice be served. and the judge well his conscience can only tell.
Deletewow, does her second comment imply that she didn't do her own research and her opinion is just based on her trust for the director??
ReplyDeletegusto ko kayong paalalahanan na ang ganitong mga kuda ay wala ng merito dahil tapos na ang kaso. Kahit magkukuda pa kayo ng injustice, san ang evidence ninyo?so wag nating bilugin ang mga tao through trial by publicity and by watching a movie. Let the court decide.
ReplyDeleteLet the court decide? Then let the case be reopened. It would be better because the people who convicted Paco back then are no longer in position. Remember, Chief justice of SC was relaated to Mrs Chiong too.
Deletecorrect, let us investigate both sides. Saan ang merits ng kasong ito kasi parang pati judge nito unstable or can be called a mental case dahil nagpakamatay bigla. Something or someone powerful manipulated this case. This has to be reopened.Ano ang negosyo ng mga mayayamang pamilyang ito? Both camps seemed influential
DeleteI'm so sorry for the Chiong sisters and for this Paco as well, but I would like to know aside from witnesses, were there any CCTV footage that time showing time stamps that would present evidence that Paco was in Manila and not in Cebu, same way that as for the Chiong sisters, what happened to DNA, swab tests? these are important details to consider and not judging the merits of the case just by watching hearsay etc. or movies from both camps. If they have enough evidence,then they should just reopen the case.
ReplyDeleteDNA test was never performed on the alleged body of Marijoy. As to why, hmmmmm...
DeleteTHE CENTER OF CULINARY ARTS IN MANILA ACTUALLY SHOWED AN ATTENDANCE SHEET (PARANG COMPUTERIZED PA SIGURO IYONG ID NA NILA IYONG PARANG SA OFFICE) NA PACO WAS IN MANILA WHEN THE INCIDENT HAPPENED. TAPOS LAHAT NG CLASSMATES (IN FAIRNESS, THEY ALL SPOKE GOOD ENGLISH. ALAM MONG MAY MGA KAYA) NI PACO SAID HE WAS ACTUALLY IN MANILA. PERO IYONG JUDGE AYAW NIYA SILANG PAKINGGAN. NAKAKALOKA! MAY PICTURES PA ACTUALLY NA KASAMA NG MGA FRIENDS NIYA.
Deletereopen talaga? tapos na then iparereopen for what?
DeleteFor justice. There were no hard evidence but 7 men were convicted of something just because of a witness that was not even credible.
DeleteFyi the witness was a drug addict and a convicted felon in the us. And his statements were changing everytime. When he was being cross-examined ng defense, he acted sick so no one can question him.
Also, all other witnesses were paid. Tumatawa pa nga si Mrs. Chiong stating that 1k or 2k pesos is not a bribe. Imagine how much ang halaga ng 1k 20+yrs ago.
Also, di ako kamag-anak or friend or taga-cebu. I did my research lang.
we are not even sure kung si marijoy nga yon. the body was not submitted to dna as per the request of the parents.
ReplyDeleteSketchy!
Deletekung nakalibing pa naman yung dinadalaw nilang anak sa cemetery pwede nmn buksan at DNA kung yun talaga ang anak nilang namatay.
Deletepinaglaan ko talaga ng isa't kalahating oras yung Give Up Tomorrow.
ReplyDeletepareho tayo. i was crying while watching the mom of paco. i am a mom too and the evidence points out that his son is really innocent. grabe. kakainis.
DeleteJustice for Paco??? Revionism? I grew up in Cebu.. Grabe ang pagkasalbahe niyan together with his gang like that Aznar scion even before the horrifying Chiong sister murders. Paco wss a LOW LIFE THUG ..LITERALLY A MONSTER.
ReplyDeleteBut...the fact remains that no one was able to prove that he was in Cebu
DeleteKaya nga dapat guilty without reasonable doubt.
@ 8:48, hindi nya dine-deny na salbahe sya. Hindi rin kinakaila ng magulang ni Paco na may mga nagawa syang hindi maganda in the past. Pero para sabihin na nang-rape at pumatay sya, walang ebidensya kundi yang inconsistent statements ni Rusia.
DeleteMinsan matutuong maging objective.
Kung meron DNA evidence na may sperm ni Paco na nakita sa bangkay, o kaya naman flight records na magpapatunay na pmunta sya sa Cebu before or close sa time of murder, balikan mo ko.
Kagaya nga ng sinabi ni 2:17 "guilty without reasonable doubt"
Reopen? Convicted by the Supreme court yan. Have you read the decision of the supreme court? That documentary was made by friends/relatives of Paco. Syempre they will twist it to favor paco.
ReplyDeleteLOL BUT IT WAS CLEARLY A MISTRIAL. OKAY LANG SANA MACONVICT. PERO DIOS KO HINDI MAN LANG KINUNSIDER ANG EVIDENCE NINA PACO. TAPOS PINANIWALAAN IYONG RUSIA NA NAKULONG NA SA US. DI BA PWEDENG I-QUESTION NUNG MGA ABUGADO NILA PACO HIS CREDIBILTY?
DeleteAT SINABI DIN NUNG JUDGE NA WALA SIYANG MAKITANG CONCRETE EVIDENCE NA MINURDER AT GINAHASA SILA KAYA LIFE NA LANG IYONG HATOL NIYA. NAKAKALOKA. WALA PALANG EVIDENCE E BAKIT MAY HATOL PA RIN?
Let him have a fair trial. Anong klaseng trial ba yang pinagmamalaki mo? eh ni hindi kinonsider ung mga witnesses and Paco's testimonies! Iniisip mo iitwist nila? eh ung prosecution nga ang nagtwist eh!
DeleteMas magugulat siguro ako kung yung gumawa ng documentary ay sa side ng kalaban. -_-
ReplyDeleteI think to be fair in giving opinion, people must also read the SC decision completely to know the reason why 1. Paco's friends and their testimonies werent accepted 2. Why his alibi didnt check out 3. Why Rusia became star witness 4. Why there was a lack of cross examination 5. How the physical evidence corroborated with his (Rusia) testimony.
ReplyDeleteSome but not all issues mentioned in the docu was answered in that decision. Its a pretty good read guys.
Wag si meg imperial. Dapat viva films... sila nag gawa ng pelikula. Sila nag green light nyan.
ReplyDeleteIts funny how did the Mother of Chiong sisters just forgave Rusia even giving him money and clothes after.. forgiving is one thing but being close to one person who also killed ur daughters is one thing...joketime?
ReplyDeleteYung give up tomorrow kasi, napaka factual, based talaga sa actual scenes, clips, news, documentaries...kaya napaka informative..eh ung kabilang partido, puro kwento, puro sabi sabi so anong papaniwalaan ng tao..
