An unidentified suspect who raped and murdered the eight-year-old girl in Biñan, Laguna was caught by authorities with the help of the CCTV footage. The teenager boy was arrested after the police closely scrutinized the frames generated from the recorded video.
It's been a daunting task for investigators to track and identify the faces of criminals but with the aid of advance technology, they could now easily point and trace the offenders. In example, the suspect of the rape-slay case of April Erispe in Laguna was immediately apprehended last week.
Aside from the CCTV footage, the testimony of the witnesses who saw the rape victim completely naked in a creek in Barangay Zapote, Biñan, Laguna strengthen the claims and theory that the captured suspect was behind the killing and rape incident.
Meanwhile, the foster sister of the rape victim, Izhaiy Faraon, posted the actual picture of April Erispe lying face down at the creek in Laguna. She cries for justice and she wants the suspect to be executed with death penalty.
Unfortunately, the suspect (whose name is withheld) is reportedly below 18 years old and may not face criminal charges due to the provisions defined in Republic Act No. 9344.
SEC. 6. Minimum Age of Criminal Responsibility. - A child fifteen (15) years of age or under at the time of the commission of the offense shall be exempt from criminal liability. However, the child shall be subjected to an intervention program pursuant to Section 20 of this Act.
A child above fifteen (15) years but below eighteen (18) years of age shall likewise be exempt from criminal liability and be subjected to an intervention program, unless he/she has acted with discernment, in which case, such child shall be subjected to the appropriate proceedings in accordance with this Act.
