The Chiong Sisters' "Still Alive" Conspiracy Theory Was Around Last 2005?

No, the girls below are not the same people above.

Granted, I never saw Give Up Tomorrow nor realize that Juan Francisco G. Larrañaga aka Paco was innocent until 2018. I was shocked to realize, from a friend, that he was with Paco on the night of the crime. From the New Scientist website, it talks about how innocents die without DNA tests. Hubert Jeffry P. Webb's life was wasted because of one foolish judge's decision not to grant a DNA test of the semen sample found in the late Carmela Vizconde's body. Here's a very interesting excerpt that points out the conspiracy theory that either one (or both) of the Chiong sisters may still be alive:

Conspiracy theories surround the case. A policeman who worked on the case said last week he thought Larrañaga was innocent. Only one body was found, which was identified as Marijoy’s, but there are serious doubts about whether it is in fact her – even from the original trial judge. What’s more, there are rumours that one or both sisters is living in Canada. A DNA test would establish whether the body is Marijoy, but the supreme court has said no. The president, Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, promised on Monday that she would intervene to save Larrañaga.

This is a serious case of justice. I believe that the body found was true of the late Marijoy Jimenea Chiong. I still dismiss what Enrique Uy said about this first-degree cousin of Mrs. Thelma Jimenea-Chiong talking to him about this and that. How true was it that Mrs. Chiong had a call from Vancouver, Canada? What if it was the daughter-in-law or could've been the youngest daughter Debbie Jane Jimenea Chiong-Sia (who was around 10-11 years old, and looks a lot like the presumed late Jacqueline Jimenea Chiong) who was sent there? I don't have any answers. I really put a shadow of doubt in the claim of Uy as much as I believe his children are innocent.  

At that time, the Supreme Court of the Philippines had Hon. Hilario G. Davide Jr. Davide Jr.'s wife was born Virginia Jimenea Perez--a relative of Mrs. Chiong. In short, Davide Jr. was related to Mrs. Chiong by marriage. Yes, the very same guy who said that the 1987 Constitution is "the best in the world". It was said Davide Jr. "took no part". However, Phil Star Global seems to suggest otherwise with this information:

Supreme Court spokesman Esmael Khan has confirmed that the tribunal en banc (in the bench, emphasis mine) presided by Chief Justice Hilario Davide Jr. denied the convicts’ motions to reverse its Feb. 3, 2004 decision because there was no new evidence to warrant its reversal.

It was at this moment that Mrs. Solita Collas-Monsod made her reaction about the Supreme Court of the Philippines' decision (read here). I must admit that I cringed over what Mrs. Monsod said while she's very anti-reform. I would like to really point out the big problem of denying the DNA test of the body. Let's say that the body was indeed Marijoy. Okay, it's positively Marijoy. However, further tests can prove Paco's innocence like a DNA test could've proven Hubert's innocence. It was also in 2005 when Judge Amelita Tolentino (yes, the same idiot that ran the trial) was already in the Court of Appeals. 

I was wondering if Davide Jr. was indeed emotional about it. It can be possible that the others sympathized with Davide Jr. because of his relationship (by marriage) with the victims. It's stupid that they didn't bother to examine the evidence that could've acquitted the seven innocents. Come on, they had the chance to have Paco's photos in Quezon City examined. The claims were never examined so can it be that "there was no new evidence"? I could agree with Mrs. Monsod even if that woman is very incorribly anti-reform, about Paco's plight. 

I would like to say that the "evidence" above presented to "prove" that the Chiong Sisters are "still alive" is nonsense. The photos shown aren't them. It's really annoying how another sister-in-law is mistaken for Marijoy. Do I need to keep repeating that Debbie isn't Jacqueline and that Amelie Arquilliano-Chiong isn't Marijoy? Some people do die and their bodies are never recovered. For all we know, Jacqueline's body may have been thrown to the bottom of the ocean and it's decomposed by now. Nobody can prove for real, at this point, that the sisters are alive. Nobody has even gone to Canada to take a photo of the two sisters who should be in their 40s if they were alive.  Go to the Philippine Christian Gospel School (PCGS) and find out that there are three sisters. Go to St. Theresa's College and find out that Amelie has always been Amelie.

Sadly, some people do develop that cognitive dissonance. One could go ahead and argue that Amelie is the sister-in-law and that Debbie has always been Debbie. However, some people will prefer to stick to whatever "evidence" they have. It's pretty much no different than what got Paco in jail to begin with. The evidence that Paco was really in Quezon City was denied by the judge. The judge demanded evidence but didn't believe when it came. I guess the same can be true even if the identities of Amelie, one of the sisters-in-law, and Debbie are spilled out to prove they are totally different persons. 

If you have no evidence of the claim, then it's best to simply shut up. Any claim with no evidence should just be considered moot.

Recalling Amos Yee's Anti-LKY Rants As He Gets His UNSURPRISING Worst of the Worst Status in American Soil

PHOTO: US DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY   Who can remember Amos Yee, that brat who badmouthed the late Lee Kuan Yew? It's been 10 years and several months since LKY died on March 23, 2015. According to The Straits Times article written by Chinese Singaporean writer Daniel Lai, it should be interesting to note that he's the only Singaporean among the arrested. This is what Lai wrote about Amos, which should be  disturbing at several levels. The webpage states that Yee was convicted of enticement of a minor for indecent purposes, sexual exploitation of a minor via photograph and sexual exploitation of a minor via telecommunications . It added that he was arrested in Chicago, Illinois. The 27-year-old child sex offender is in the custody of ICE after he was released on parole on Nov 20. He is last known to have been detained at the Dodge Detention Facility in Wisconsin, a four-hour drive from Illinois, where he was serving a six-year jail term for child pornography and sexual ...

Facts vs. Gossip: Why Fat Acceptance Isn't as Cool as the Gossipers Say

Back in college, I recall having the idea of exercise being "too complicated". It doesn't have to sound complicated. I have my journey from 2013-2023 where I really lost much weight. After having a Mi-Band, I thought about how losing weight was something.  I ended up running into the video of this attractive blonde girl. I admit that I watched it partly because she's pretty. Then again, some videos with really ugly-looking people are entertaining when they have very good content. I watched the video and I could really laugh (and cringe) at the stupidity of the fat people in the video. Hearing them whine is really that annoying. The girl really talks about some sense in many of her videos. A lot of people are simply trying to become what they're not and try to defy the facts. It's just so stupid how fat acceptance people even shame people who are trying to lose weight. I've watched some weight loss stories and found out some of them had suffered a lot of he...

The Happy Aborigines Taiwanese Song

Today in History: Remembering the Vizconde Massacre "Star Witness" Jessica Alfaro

The Vizconde Massacre looks like it's going to be in those cases, still Case Unclosed. Back in the 1990s, the Vizconde Massacre was one of the cases I heard while growing up. I once believed that Hubert Jeffry P. Webb was guilty. I actually wanted to see the man get the death penalty. What shocked me was that after many years, Hubert, along with Francisco Juan "Paco" G. Larrañaga, were both innocent of the crimes they were accused of! Since the crime happened in 1991, and the trial only began in 1995. Right now, it turns out that Jessica Alfaro, the "star witness" is living somewhere in Canada . The rumors of the Chiong Sisters living in Canada can't be proven. However, it's proven that Jessica is living in Canada. From the Asian Human Rights Commission , here's a summary of the Vizconde Case. Since I'm not writing this as a book report in middle school or high school, I'll paste the summary here: VIZCONDE MASSACRE CASE: This case is about th...

Pol Pot's Brutal Regime May Be Summarized by "Hating Everyone Better Than Him"

Documentation Center of Cambodia Archives Two days ago, on April 17, 1975, marked the 50th year since Pol Pot (real name, Saloth Sar) rose to power. The Khmer Rouge only ruled for four years, but it showed one thing--a reign of less than six years isn't necessarily benevolent (read here ). A look at Pol Pot's past may show that he was the typical inggitero--the Filipino word for someone who's easily jealous of others! The History website reveals this brutal detail on Pol Pot's regime, which was most likely fueled by jealousy : Pol Pot was a political leader whose communist Khmer Rouge government led Cambodia from 1975 to 1979. During that time, an estimated 1.5 to 2 million Cambodians died of starvation, execution, disease or overwork. One detention center, S-21, was so notorious that only seven of the roughly 20,000 people imprisoned there are known to have survived. The Khmer Rouge, in their attempt to socially engineer a classless communist society, took particular ...
