FACTS: One fateful day, while Esmeralda (Victim) was in the house
and taking care of her sick child and her two other children, Edgardo
(Accused), their neighbor, came and asked for the whereabouts of
Valerio, Esmeraldas husband. Esmeralda informed Edgardo that
Valerio was in Olongapo.
Unsatisfied with their answer, Edgardo pulled out his knife and
initially tried to stab Esmeraldas son who was then playing on the
ground. Edgardo then stepped inside their house and attempted to
stab the daughter and so Esmeralda pulled her daughter aside.
Edgardo then went for the mother, Esmeralda. Edgardo repeatedly
stabbed Esmeralda in the stomach and chest areas. As a result, the
Esmeralda died.
