Vizconde murders
The Vizconde murder case, colloquially known as the Vizconde massacre, was the multiple homicide of members of the Vizconde family on 30 June 1991 at their residence in BF Homes, Parañaque City, Metro Manila, Philippines.〔(Philippine Inquirer The Vizconde Case )〕 Estrellita, 49, had suffered thirteen stab wounds; Carmela, 18, had suffered seventeen stab wounds and had been raped before she was killed; and Jennifer, 6, had nineteen stab wounds.〔 Lauro Vizconde, Estrellita's husband, and the father of Carmela and Jennifer, was in the United States on business when the murders took place.
The lead suspect was Hubert Webb, whose father Freddie Webb was famous as an actor, former basketball player, and former Congressman and Senator. The other defendants were Antonio Lejano II, Hospicio Fernandez, Michael Gatchalian, Miguel Rodriguez, Peter Estrada, Joey Filart and Artemio Ventura.〔(''Philippine Star'' coverage of the murders )〕 In the Trial Court (''People of the Philippines vs. Hubert Webb, et al.'', G.R. No. 176864), it became one of the most sensational cases in the Philippines, being described as a "trial of the century". The men were convicted by the Parañaque Regional Trial Court which the Court of Appeals affirmed. Except for Filart and Ventura who had been convicted ''in absentia'', the men were later acquitted by the Supreme Court on 14 December 2010 for failure of the prosecution to prove their guilt beyond reasonable doubt.
==Case==
The case remained unsolved for almost four years, until eyewitness Jessica Alfaro, a self-confessed former drug addict, came forward on April 28, 1995 to shed light on the killing of the Vizcondes. Alfaro implicated the children of wealthy and prominent families including Hubert Webb, Antonio Lejano II, Hospicio Fernandez, Michael Gatchalian, Miguel Rodriguez, Peter Estrada, Joey Filart and Artemio Ventura.〔
Alfaro's testimony coincides with the angle that was being explored by Supt. Rodolfo Sison, the police investigator originally assigned to the case in 1991. Sison was ordered to desist from further investigating that angle by then Philippine National Police Capital Region Commander Marino Filart after six members of ''akyat bahay gang''(burglars) were arrested by Regional Police Unit in October 1991.〔(Manila Standard, June 25, 1995 )〕〔(Manila Standard, June 16, 1995 )〕〔(Manila Standard, June 25, 1995 )〕 The suspects said they were tortured and forced to confess to the crime before they were presented by Filart to the media.〔 They were acquitted by a trial judge in September 1993 for insufficient evidence.〔(Manila Standard, September 23, 1993 )〕
