Nuezca sentenced to reclusion perpetua for murder of mom, son in Tarlac

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Dismissed cop Jonel Nuezca was found guilty over the brutal killing of a mother and son in Paniqui, Tarlac last year. 

Nuezca was meted out the penalty of reclusion perpetua for each case and was ordered by the court to pay P952,560 or P476,280 in damages to the heirs of Sonya Gregorio and another P476,280 to the heirs of Frank Anthony Gregorio.

Nuezca was found guilty "beyond reasonable doubt" for 2 counts of murder over the killing of his neighbors.

The cellphone video of the killings and the testimony of the one who took it were vital in proving that Nuezca killed mother and son and it was attended with treachery, which made it murder. "The attack was so swift and sudden that the victims were not able to defend themselves." 

Note that the PNP dismissed Nuezca from service in January this year.

Finally nakabalita din ng justice dto sa Pilipinas...kasi it could have been another "nanlaban" story kung walang video...sana yung isang police din na pinatay yung kapitbahay na babae ay ma sentensyahan na din...

Huwag nating pasalamatan ang justice system, pasalamatan natin yung nag video. If wala yung video, 100% sure laya pa din yan ngayon.

Serves him right for his abuse of authority. This case was out of the news for quite some time. It's good to know justice has been served. Nakakagulat kung hindi na siya na-convict.

Tapos, palalayain nila next year? Or kapag wala ng pumapansin sa issue. Kapag si inday Sarah o Digong ang naging presidente ay pwedeng makalaya yan. 

Baka before pa mag 20 yrs hihingi na yan ng parole. Kung cold blooded killer/murderer ang isang person of authority, may redemption kaya mangyayari in 20 yrs sa loob ng selda?

Also note: This is technically not "double murder" but 2 counts of murder.

Why not “double murder”? Here’s the explanation:

Not to be pedantic, but "double murder" might imply that it was a complex crime (i.e., only one act, but two resulting crimes). He killed the mother and the son one at a time. So, it's "two counts of murder." Penalty is two independent sentences of reclusion perpetua.

Bakit ngayon lang eh noong December PA last year Yung krimen?

In the kind of justice system that we have, convictions eight months after the crime is fairly fast. Let’s just be thankful that justice is served. Hindi naman siguro pwedeng krimen today, tapos conviction two weeks later no?

In this highly sensational case that went viral due to the captured video of the actual killings, it would have been insane if the cop was not convicted. 

Minsan kasi matagal talaga ang investigations. Yung iba umaabot pa ng 10+ years. Justice served na rin, kahit mabagal ang usad ng case.

8 months. Mabilis na yun compared sa ibang case. Considering may lockdowns pa.

Pwede naman palang mabilis ang pagdinig sa korte at pagsentensya. Yung Mindanao massacre ay inabot ng ilang rain. 

It was a high profile case. Marami kasing witness (300) at defendants (200) dun. Iba iba din sila ng abugado. Matagal ang presentation ng witness pati na din ang evidence. Pati na din private prosecutors kaya tumagal ang trial. Although mas matagal dapat yan kung ginawa ng defendants na patagalin ang case.

Salamat naman at makukulong na siya. Eh yung anak na mayabang na proud sa tatay na masama ugali? 

Sana yung bata masabi pa niyang “My father is a policeman” 

He was provoked by the condescending attitude of her daughter.

But an experienced and properly trained and hehaving police must never be provoked by anything around him to make the right decision. Specially if he knows the life of a person is depending on him.

ilan pa kayang mga pulis na pumatay lang dahil sa galit o power trip ang masisintensiyahan?

Eh yung lider na nagpasimuno ng patayan na yan kaya nagkalakas ng loob ang mga pulis natin? BAKIT HINDI PA ISUNOD YAN!
