On August 30, 2024, 36-year-old Chatty Timbang was admitted to the emergency room of a public hospital in Dasmariñas City, Cavite. Her mother, Conchita Timbang, accompanied her.

At 3:10 AM, an assassin managed to reach Chatty’s hospital bed.

Upon spotting his target, the killer pulled out his gun and fired several close-range shots, killing Chatty instantly.

Conchita, who had been sleeping beside her daughter, was struck by a stray bullet that hit her right thigh.

The assassin escaped but encountered obstacles along the way. A helper named Nedia Vasquez and a security guard named Abdul Batua intervened, leading to the assassin shooting both of them.

Fortunately, the gunshots that Conchita, Nedia, and Abdul sustained were not fatal.

According to police reports and various news outlets that covered the case, the murder of Chatty appeared to be connected to illegal drug distribution in the city of Dasmariñas.

In the Philippine context, parricide refers to the crime of killing one's own parent, ascendant grandparent or great-grandparent, or other close relatives such as a child, spouse, or sibling, as specified under the Revised Penal Code of the Philippines.

Specifically, Article 246 of the RPC defines parricide as the unlawful killing of a father, mother, child, or any of the direct descendants or ascendants, or a spouse.

In our episode for today, we will tackle one of the least discussed parricide cases that happened in the 2010s.

On November 28, 2012, the authorities discovered the body of 49-year-old Marilou Jorge in the trunk of her gold Honda Civic parked near her home in North Matrix Ville Subdivision, Caloocan City.

Earlier that day, residents in the area complained to village officials about an unpleasant smell coming from what they described at the time as an abandoned vehicle.

Little did they know at the time that the authorities would stumble upon a case that has more questions than answers.

Mayor Antonio Halili of Tanuan Batangas was a well-known figure back in the day for his "walk of shame" campaign, where he paraded drug suspects through the streets, a method that garnered both support and criticism nationwide, which critics would argue that it violated human rights and due process.

Some have compared him to former president Rodrigo Duterte’s hardline stance against crime.

But the irony here is that a former Duterte ally recently revealed during the investigations in the House of Representatives Quad Committee claiming that Duterte was behind the assassination of Mayor Halili, although the investigation is still ongoing as of now.

On July 2, 2018, Mayor Halili was assassinated during a flag ceremony at the city hall. A sniper shot him, causing immediate chaos and raising questions about the motive behind the killing. He was rushed to the hospital but was declared dead on arrival.

Mayor Halili's murder was speculated to be linked to his anti-drug campaign, political rivalries, or personal vendettas. Some theories suggested he was targeted for his involvement in the illegal drug trade.
