Vice Gov. Fernando for his part said that this achievement is a fitting example that the five pillars of justice in Bulacan is indeed working well.
It will be recalled that barely a day after the grizzly murder of Auring Dizon, Estrella Dizon-Carlos, Donni, 11; Ella, 7, and Dexter Jr., 1 year old who were wrenched in their own blood with multiple stab wounds was discovered security guard and patriarch Dexter Carlos Sr., on the morning of June 27, the SJDM police arrested Carmelino Ibanez alias “Miling” after an eyewitness appeared at the police station.
“If you remember, Ibanez or “Miling” admitted his participation in the gruesome killing of Carlos family on June 28, 2017 in the presence of his immediate family inside their house which resulted to his eventual arrest. Likewise, he reiterated his admission regarding his participation on the crime during exclusive interviews with different news networks and mentioned alias “Inggo” (Rolando Pacinos) and alias “Tony” (Anthony Garcia) as his cohorts in perpetrating said crime,” Caramat said.
He also said the two were considered as “persons of interest” (POI). The two other POIs alias Roosevelt Serema alias “Ponga” and Alvin Mabesa were mentioned by confidential informants.
Pacinos, Serema and Garcia have been found dead one after the other recently.
The four other “persons of interest” (POI) were all negative from the DNA test found at the crime scene but Caramat said it doesnt mean that they are excluded to the said crime.
Ibanez admitted the crime but later recanted his statement. However, the forensic results of the Bulacan PNP Crime Laboratory pinned him down. He was arraigned last week and pleaded not guilty at the sala of Bulacan RTC Branch 78 Judge Gregorio Sampaga. He is now detained at the Bulacan Provincial Jail. –EMIL G. GAMOS
