The girl was my classmate and I was at the Uni when that happened. I was in class as they paraded the bodies around campus and we heard the screams as her sorority sisters were called in and identified her at the campus police HQ. The only reason the “mayor” was convicted was that he probably doesn’t know that the girl was part of a very powerful sorority. If you’re a member of said sorority you’re either very pretty or very rich. At the time their alumni were part of broadcasting media and or from affluent communities (i.e., residents of Forbes Park). It was a very scary time for us as the “mayor” was very known to be extremely violent and untouchable. Thanks for featuring this.
@@krisj5561most probably a ceremony where the coffins were paraded (not a festive way obviously) around campus before the coffins were brought down under the ground.
My Mom always retells this story to me because we live in the neighboring city. She said that Mayor Sanchez was really known for killing people and taking beautiful girls - Eileen and Allan were not his only victim. It just so happen that Eileen’s family also has some money, power and connection in the government so her case was pursued. If not, her killing will just be another town gossip and Sanchez will just continue to rule his town.
This is true. If youre poor in the Philippines nobody will cater to your problems. My former professor was brutally murdered by his Muslim girlfriend's family and was never given justice for it.
Not only that the University which this happened in is The University of the Philippines Los Banos. And you know how gungho that university is when it comes to justice and most alumni of this University helped to convict this monster.
Looking at comments. This case had so much more . 1) mayor’s family supporting the mayor 2) his family not compensating the family 3) he was mayor of nearby town. 4) the girl was paraded 😢 without cover on her body . 5) there were a lot of similar cases this got highlighted because the girl was powerful too . 6) the mayor was known for kidnapping and abduction. 7) getting into this university means these were top tier students.
I might add that his lawyer was a top aide of former president Duterte. He was freed, along with several other detainees(all clients of the same lawyer, many guilty of equally heinous crimes). When it became public knowledge that he's out (illegally), death threats forced him back to prison. I would also add that the state witness, a man ordered to bury the body, admitted to burying several other victims of the said mayor. Investigators found the remains where he said they were buried, but the mayor wasn't charged because nobody can identify the remains(there was no affordable DNA sequencing tech back then). Nothing but the words of an undertaker and unidentifiable remains(but mostly females of roughly the same age bearing the same bullet holes to the face) Additionally, there was also a failed abduction attempt one year prior to this incident, the two men described as attempting to abduct a group of female students at gunpoint were among those charged in this case. Cases like these are among the reasons why mayors are no longer given the power to appoint or terminate police officers(which the previous president wants to restore).
Add to the list that the possibility of the high profile criminals and not just Mayor Sanchez but also the idc eh eh eh policeman murderer "died" and instantly cremated. It was controversial because 8 of them "died" around the same time and they were ALL HIGH PROFILE CASES. And no way to verify because the bodies were cremated immediately after taking pics as proof. It's infuriating
@@odinmatanguihan5086No affordable DNA test? Do police not have state backed funding? So if the family is poor, does their case get swept under the rug? WTF🤯😲
I will never EVER be able to wrap my mind around how MULTIPLE men are capable of sexual gratification while they are all taking turns and watching eachother torture, hurt, abuse and humiliate another person. Regardless of gender, age, situation in life, but especially when it involves a truly innocent young girl with hopes and dreams and a family that loves her. It just makes me feel sick and hopeless. So disgusting and evil.
There is a book that explores this called Our Guys, but as a warning is horribly disturbing as it is a true story. The gist of the theory is that men who commit group acts like this are using the situation as a way to bond with each other, which is horrifying. It mimics other scenarios where violence is used to facilitate bonding (war, contact sports)
I know. Me either. It's so absolutely disgusting. It's a form of violence. I think that's why. I am not to sure. I totally agree. I think it's sick and sounds terrible to go through. I knew a girl when I was a teenager who's aunts boyfriend and his friends would do that to her every night for a whole year. When she was 14! Breaks my heart evetime I think about it.
This is my university and sadly it only got worse when i was there back in 2011. The SAs, robbery and the murders of students and children around the area got so bad that we had a 12 am curfew for months until a suspect was found. And as usual it was someone related to the authorities. 🤦🏻♀️
@@leakim3861 omg! Is this the one in the back of the library?? That happened In front of my dorm and the girl he was with was an acquaintance of mine. We visited her when she was in the uni hospital. Bless her heart she even made jokes so none of us would cry.😣
that mayor was from my hometown in the Philippines. to this day, his son and daughter are either councilors or vice mayors. they have no SHAME. their names are DONG SANCHEZ, AMTY SANCHEZ
@@javi5810they took the side of denying his guilt though & defended him & refused to pay court awarded damages to victims families. That’s guilt by association imo
not uncommon that when the father steps down, the other family members will take over the position lol it's like they made it in some kind of a heritage.
When my mother was younger, she used to work at that mayor's sister-in-law's house years before he was imprisoned. When the news came out that he could be let out recently, she shared with us that whenever that mayor visited his sister-in-law, her boss would tell her and other girl workers to go home and not let themselves be seen by him. He was really infamous for kidnapping any girl that he liked and you would know it's true when his own relatives would be that cautious and try to protect their employees. We still live in the same area and we were scared that he would get out of jail that time.
@@watchWorld100i guess he might have been killed but they might show it as a disease because let’s for sure mayor’s chances to come out of the jail now gone forever and anyone idiot enough to take his side would loose his career and people will never forget about him. So before he try again to get out of the jail he was finished.
I came from the Philippines and I remember this being on the news and everyone was devastated and enraged. This remained one of the high profile cases to this day.
Imagine how Allan felt in his final moments too, he fought as hard as he could to escape and save his friend even despite his injuries and he may have died thinking he wasn't enough. that's a horrible way to go. Hope the perpetrators rot in prison
Wanted to add that another disgusting aspect of this case is that the mayors family is standing by him AND are refusing to pay the court ordered damages to the victims’ families. Like wtf is wrong with the wife saying “we have no intention to pay”, as a woman especially how can you say that
the mayor and his wife are on the same level of evil. makes me wonder, do they have daughter or son? the college students could easily be their son or daughter. both of them are not human, even worst than monsters, pure evil.
same, plus ive seen it frist hand with my teachers and upperclasses, i used to attend 'military' esque high school and my god do teachers, principal, student council, seniors are obssesed with their power, and when i become a senior ive seen my class mates change like them aswell... :c god what an awfull place that was
the whole country followed this case until the culprit sentenced behind bars. Everyone laughed when mayor Sanchez slipped down the stairs while screaming I am innocent double karma for him😂
@@marieinfante5828 lmao imagine if he broke his leg and then everyone just laugh even harder, imagine his reaction that no one care about him since hes literally a monter
@@user-pn9uv2xq2d Yep, there's a big problem saying that "no, those are monster not men". It sounds like excusing rapes that are not violent "but she didn't say no, I'm no a monster!" etc those types that are more common.
Stephanie please talk about the case of the Korean girl who was obsessed with true crime and killed an English tutor just to see how it feels like, PLEASE!!!!
One of the most disturbing moments of my University life. I attended the same University, Eileen was my batchmate, she was on the College of Agriculture while I was on the College of Engineering just a stone throw apart across the road. Eileen was my classmate on one of my cognate classes in Agronomy. Something as a choice outside the more rigorous classes in Engineering. Actually, she was on our lab group. I remember her as a very reserved person but yet fiesty and curious in a good sense and spot on one of the most recognizable figures around the campus without trying to be one. I remember her sitting alone in front of the Library lobby with her usual white shirt and levis jeans preparing for our exam,, looked at me very relaxed almost telling me not to worry. What happened that day changed my life.
I was just meters away from where the abduction happened at the time they believe the abduction happened. There was an arcade there(coin operated video game machines), very close to Tops. I usually spend my time there after dinner, partly because of the power crisis and they have a generator. I had absolutely no idea something bad happened just meters from where I was.
I understand, horrifically, it's just how babies were made until we learned enough communication and sentience or whatever to go "Actually, you know what, no, I don't want to. Go away." without having to draw blood. 'Cause even cats have a way of saying 'GO AWAY STOP TOUCHING ME' without being able to speak human. Now I'm wondering when us living 'sentient' beings, humans and animals, got enough brain power to know when we didn't like things and that we could say 'no'.
@@rashi4553Yeah, especially those in power. They get away with a lot of things. Most heinous and despicable criminals in the Philippines are mostly those who are in power/authority.
This case makes me sick to my stomach. How do people that are in power, that are suppose to protect the people just abuse their power! How sick are they that they would abuse and kill innocent lives!
It’s so true. Money and power like this corrupts every inch of the world. Evil lurks in the hearts of men and also women. I pray for our children and for this world of corruption. It is beyond tragic but every story told where money and power does not prevail and evil loses at the very least is a battle won. We need so many more monsters locked away in hell on earth. They will very likely meet in the same place after death. In the bowels of hell.
They are in power because they are the most ruthless and cruel. They view those below them as inferior and think nothing of them. If they had empathy the world would not be the way it is.
As a women, I have a underlying sensation of fear every single time I walk out of my house. Even just to get something from my car or do some yard work. I am afraid that some monster is gonna happen to see me and decide at that moment, for whatever reason, that I am his target. What happened to this young woman is exactly why I feel afraid. He saw her for a split second and decided he wanted her. I am sickened by the violence we see against women all over the world. Simply so that some creep can get off. Enough!!
As a single mum with a daughter, im also scared being in my own home. I wish i had someone else living with me so i didnt feel like such a target. Luckily i live in a fairly safe country, not a very good area tho. (Not that it seems to matter where you live, bad things can happen anywhere)
I feel you. You always have to be cautious as a woman. I was molested by my mother's boyfriend when I was 13 till 14 years. Someone I thought I could trust. My mother didn't even care. So never forget that other women can be bad too. So basically, you need to be careful with anyone. Not saying that you should immediately think bad of someone. I try to keep in mind that not everybody is like that. And that's the best thing you can do, because otherwise you'd go insane with paranoia and miss out on getting to know really good people. But definitely keep your eyes open for any red flags and always take those red flags seriously. But yeah I definitely understand you. Try as I might, I always feel intimidated around men when I don't know them yet. I also don't go out on my own when it's dark, avoid places that have a reputation of being shady, don't go to an event without a group of friends etc. It's sad that we have to take precautions like that, but it's for our safety.
I have social anxiety due to childhood sexual trauma and other SA traumas as an adult and after I broke up with my ex, I began having severe panick attacks because men did not stop catcalling me. I was on crutches and some of them (80%) wanted to "help me" by taking my crutches, and one man actually did and I could barely fucking walk so I turned around and yanked them out of his hands and fisted them like they were my weapons to protect me. It's insane what they did the moment I broke up with my ex and while crippled. After this experience I honestly feel the way you described 24/7 and I literally threw my crutches in the corner of my room and haven't used them ever since and my ankle is still bad but at least no man is trying to take away the one thing that is holding me up...
My sister went missing for two months nearly 4 years ago now. During that time, there was a story running on the news about a young woman who'd been found dead at our local park. She'd been assaulted, beaten and then murdered. I was almost certain it was my sister. I lost it for just a bit, there. Thankfully, it wasn't. But I've never quite been able to shake the terror and despair I felt on that day. I hate it with every fiber of my being and it is never far from my mind. I know for a fact that if that poor woman had been my sister, I would have never, ever recovered. Our last conversation before that had been a pretty nasty argument. I would have given anything in that moment to take it back. In some ways, it's been a positive change in my life. I'm more cautious now and I always make sure I part ways with loved ones on good terms... but the fact that we have to live in such constant fear... I don't know man. I really don't know how to word it. It just aches.
Hi, Stephanie! The word they meant to go turbo here is more disgusting unfortunately. What the bad guys were referring to here when they said to go turbo on her is a metaphor to stuffing her like a chicken inside a turbo broiler. Here in the Philippines, it's popular to "turbo" the chicken wherein you stuff the chicken cavity with herbs and spices until it's overflowing. Then you put it in the Turbo broiler. Like what they did to her, they SAd her until she was overflowing with semen 😢
Your storytelling is very engaging. Some things that I want to add because I was teaching in the university when this happened. Back then, classes in the Philippines start in June so it didn't happen during a summer break. Eileen's body was sent to the university police office without any cover so a lot of students saw and were horrified on that early morning. The university is in the town of Los Banos that has a different mayor. Mayor Sanchez ruled over a neighboring town called Calauan. He had the reputation of being corrupt through an illegal game of chance called jueteng, the same accusation that caused a Philippine president to be ousted. It is also noteworthy to mention that the parents of Aileen and Allan made sure that their children got the justice that they deserved.
Thanks for the clarifications I was a little confuse during the case with the different descriptions of the mayor, so they were two different mayors. And it was just cruel for them to paraded the bodies of the victims in the university they attended
This case gave me nightmares the first time I heard about it. I studied at the same school, different campus, so I felt a certain connection to this young girl. As a young woman myself, what happened to her made me fear men.
The scary thing to me is it's not just men. I'm not defending like, yeah men do sexual attacks more but the horrific things humanity is capable of is so overwhelming if you think about it too long. I recommend like, seeking out the good in the world actively, because the negative stuff is presented to us without us looking for it just constantly.
@@takinekothis woman is talking about her personal connection and you have to come in giving your unsolicited opinion and advice? like come on you can not be serious right now, it is men, let her speak her truth.
@takineko I see your point but it's irrelevant to the main commenter's point. As a woman, we have no way knowing which men would SA/kill us and which men we can trust. The devil looks like a common man, so to protect ourselves, we assume the worst in everybody especially when we're commuting alone at night. If you try to see the good in everybody at night in the streets of the Philippines, you'd end up chopped into pieces in the grass fields
The fact that the mayor almost got away but fortunately didn't, is shocking. I am surprised that the President fired the individual who attempted to help the mayor escape. This type of accountability doesn't happen often enough due to corruption among those in power who are involved. However, I am pleased with the outcome of this case and the justice that the parents received.
The mayor’s daughter was a classmate when i was in elementary. I clearly remember how she ran away from our class because at that day it was announced that her dad, the mayor, was guilty. Los Baños has such a small community that almost everyone knows each other. So having this news at that time was really shocking and devastating. It was too close to home. It was scary for a kid like me too especially when you have met them personally and i was in disbelief that a father can do that to someone else’s daughter and son. Nobody deserves to die that way.
@@yaraabuzeidd at that time it was all over the news, so i saw her on TV, calling her dad out loud while reaching out to him. She was so small in a crowd of people. After that day, she never came back to school and so as her siblings.
UP is actually one of the top universities here in the Philippines. They're known to be activist, often criticize the government and fight on what they think is right. It has free tuition and students are often called 'iskolar ng bayan' which means scholar of the country. It's sad to think that they killed 2 people that definitely has big dreams, not only for themselves, but also for the country.
You know what I absolutely _love_ about Steph? Her ability to put you _inside_ these cases with her storytelling. She's so descriptive. Even her adlibs are amazing! My new favorite YTber..... Thank you ma'am, you're badass! 💜🔥
Nobody should ever have to suffer like Eileen and Allan did. Cases like these make me hope there is an afterlife and things are just so much better for these souls over there
I don't know if this will bring comfort to you, but I was being poisoned & didn't know it & died in an ambulance in 2018. My Service Dog was with me - he's my 4th dog & 3rd Service Dog. It was very painful & I was seizing & my chest hurt. My body hurt less as mu heartbeat got weaker & I had the conscious thought, "Well, this wasn't what I expected (dying that particular way) but I've had a crazy (full-ish, interesting) life." Then I experienced the most profound peace & was in a nice bright cozy place with my trio of deceased dogs. I understood "the people & the rest of the things" were beyond my dogs, but then I was back in my body. I didn't have a "choice" like some explain - it wasn't asked whether or not I wanted to like, go back or not. I could "see" the paramedics outside of the ambulance in my mind's eye - I couldn't really move or open my eyes. Sound came back first, but there was no machine beeping or sirens blaring. It was very quiet. I tried to sit up but couldn't, & still couldn't open my eyes; but I was able to flop my left arm down over the side of the stretcher, where it landed on my dog. I understood I was alive when I felt tangible dog fur again. Eventually I was able to sit up & call for the paramedics. They came in & just kinda stopped & stared at me for minute. They were on the phone with their supervisor. My dogs' souls definitely went somewhere. I definitely went somewhere - just not in my physical body. And it was nice. Where you have a question about the afterlife, I have questions about life because an afterlife is a known to me. Eileen & Allen are at peace, with relatives gone before them, & with their childhood pets if they had any. They will likewise greet their loved ones someday when their time comes, too.
@@princesskileyrae That's so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your story, I'm faithful there truly is an afterlife where ones soul can be at eternal peace. ❤️ Although, on the other hand.. some people truly don't deserve to experience it.. This case is just sickening .
I know a lot of people get offended of the existence of heaven and hell but the way I see it, If there's no hell and heaven then there is no real justice.
The coverage is amazing as always. I think what was missed in the story is that U.P Los Banos is a branch of the University of The Philippines. Just like the main campus which is in Manila, it is very hard to get accepted. You have to be one of the smartest kids in the country to pass the entrance exam. Sometimes even if you pass, if the list is full, you won't be able to enroll. The students are called Nation's Scholar because the university is funded by the government. Knowing that the victims are not just your ordinary college student really hits hard. These guys are one of the most studious students you will find. All that hard work, that intelligence, that good was taken all for pleasure of a greedy scum. Glad he died in his cell.
Its all about power, some people exclaim oh that person had access to all the sex they could want why would they do that? Sure he is the mayor and with all the sex workers and mistresses he could get all anyone with a high libido could want. But he wants to take something against someones will, and to feel like he can have *anything* he wants. Its the power, its sick and gross.
As I remember, Eileen conducted an interview with the Mayor months before the murder. It was for there thesis. That is the time that the Mayor got interested with Aileen. So every night those men would be looking out for Eileen... There are also other students got raped by the Mayor but would not testify because they were too afraid.
@@ritariza2835I would think it’s likely because her friend was taken too and he was killed. Many of the other victims were likely taken alone and therefore could be scared into silence.
@@ritariza2835I'm assuming it's because there was another witness present. If it's just a girl all by herself, in a more conservative country she might not want to come forward because of how people will treat her. Someone being there who could testify with her would make it more likely for her to come forward. If they kill him she would know and would probably talk to police, so they killed both
@@ritariza2835 Not blaming her in the slightest, but maybe she fought and she was not easily cowed by him? Also the boy being there complicated it, as there were two witnesses
@@MusMasi you’re right, that makes sense ! Unfortunately the additional witness probably did have a huge impact on the result :( they probably thought it would be risky to let them both go
I graduated from the same University as them. I remember my mom trying to stop me from studying there when I got accepted. My dad would have nightmares about me getting harmed. UPLB is vast, with a lot of wooded areas. Because of this case, we would never leave the dorms alone when it's dark. We would walk in groups, because of the dark paths. It's a beautiful university in the morning, but it's ominous at night. I never heard the details till now. Thank you for shining light to this case.
It gives comfort that this story is reaching content creators of other countries so that it will never be forgotten. Our people easily forgets thus easily "forgives". Remember their names.
Agree! these kind of things should never be forgotten. As horrible as they might be, we MUST REMEMBER what has been done to innocent people like these two teenagers. The name of the monsters are the ones that must be plastered constantly everywhere.
I was born and raised in the same municipality and attended the same uni, so this case is twice more horrifying to me. I remember my parents warning me about the dangers of staying out late, and they would mention this case (alongside a more recent one: look up Given Grace). When my friends and I were attending uni, we'd always make sure to walk as a group when it gets late. Cases like this remind me that simply existing as a woman in this world is already a danger, which makes me so sick and angry. I got really emotional, remembering feeling so helpless and scared frozen when I encountered vile men. They're literally everywhere. We don't deserve this. I really hope that they all rest in peace. I appreciate you covering more cases from the PH, Stephanie! Let's all stay safe!
I know someone who knew someone that is a relative to Givem Grace's family, and there are details about that horrific case that he told me, i felt sick and still feeling sick when I remembered it.
Korean law could learn a lesson on how to punish R-worders because istg this is the first story she narrated that gave a satisfying sentence otherwise it’s always “they were given only 12 years and out on probation after 5mths” or some sh*t like that.
there's even a city in the Philippines that when somebody is proved to have R***d or SAd somebody, you will definitely die the next day. the police will not say anything about it. some media may or may not cover it but everybody would know why this person died. i'm not saying this is a good practice. just know that there are people/group of people who doesn't just forgive and settle to just jailing perpetrators for their crime.
@@chinllanos6392 and after you received your sentence & you were sent to jail. The prisoner will do the same thing you did to your victim once they found out that you were convicted of SA. People in the PH really hate that kind of crime.
@@ztvrnivlo trying to seperate monsters from humanity is ridiculous and unethical because the humans can be monsters and to try to put extra layers of distance between us and them is rather dangerous for our self perception of our capabilities for atrocities.
My heart hurts for Eileen. She did nothing to be in so much pain. I think crimes this horrendous should have a sentence or punishment that is as horrendous as the crime they did.
The hardest working content creator and story teller on the platform hands down no competition what an impressive job you do Stephanie, your work ethics are mind blowing you’re creating such a rich legacy for not only yourself but also for all the young people watching you and looking up to you, and adults like us who need honest intelligent and respectful coverage of cases, especially those with a sensitive nature, i don’t know the specific strategy of which Stephanie and her team process cases but I know it’s one of the most effective I’ve ever seen.
she releases 2 hour to an hour and a half episodes every week its insane especially when she uploads on two other channels. definitely the hardest working
Words can't describe how much I feel sorry for Eileen...those moments must have been nothing but pure hell to her. I trembled when you told what they did to her. I can't believe we live on a planet where people can do such horrendous things. Those are truly monsters and they should rot pathetically for what they've done.
Right! And her pleading to please spare her life after they’ve tooken everything else they could from her , than to gag her kill her and laugh about it otw home like it’s some kind of funny movie they was watching SICK SICK SICK!
Best narration ever. I love how your narration just transfers me to the crime scene as if I'm witnessing it happen. I listen to every single one of your videos while working my 9 to 5 job. You help me a lot and also millions of others I hope.
My sister attended a semester in this university about a decade ago. At that time, there was another female student who was SA'd. It was truly frightening.
@@leizyheroit’s pretty great facilities and stuff it’s pretty cool, I thought it’s the ghost you should be scared about but the sketchy people are much scarier.
You might still be young, the case concluded in 1993. It was really sensationalized back then. There was even a movie made about it. If I'm not mistaken, Kris Aquino starred in it.
Same here. I feel like Ampatuan Massacre content is most likely to be discussed next. That could be the most horrifying crime of the 20th century if we are to base it on the number of victims.
There's also a case from Paloma an inspiring actress. She was R and SA by a celebrity and politicians here in the Philippines. She tried to seek justice but her truth was heavily corrupted, she took her life and her oppressors are one of the richest people today here in our country.
When I left the Philippines in ‘73, it was alleged that the popular entertainers Tito, Vic, and Joey were the perpetrators but was never proven. Now Vic is a politician, right? That’s justice for you in the PI, unfortunately.
It is most likely than not that Eileen and Allan were not the only victims of these gang and their powerful mastermind boss and his family! May they all pay for their crimes a million times worse!
Exactly. Based on the sheer brutality of the crime, its safe to say that they were used to doing this. Maybe they didn’t go as far as murder but they probably have prior cases of SAs and harassment.
My cousins husband attended the engineering uni on campus. His ex gf was close with her and in the sorority. Everyone in this sorority had money and connections. She was not the first, but she was the first with the power to do something
That was horrific and heartbreaking 💔 Listening to what Eileen suffered had flashbacks to the evil rape and murder of Anita Cobby here in Australia. They are still in jail and will die there too. As will Eileen and Alan’s disgusting offenders. I’m so glad the Major in the Police Department didn’t back down nor the people of the Phillipines. Justice must be served as there’s never closure for the families. RIP Eileen and Alan ❤️
@@Kt-cn2rq I agree! Absolute power corrupts absolutely. The Mayor was a despicable, evil mongrel. As were the coppers that were happy to do his bidding with no care for their victims. I don’t know how it works in the Phillipines, but if a Mayor and a bunch of cops went to prison here for a gang rape and murder, they would have to be in protective custody the whole life sentence. The other prisoners would try and find a way to kill them constantly. Even rapists that aren’t cops suffer, but a Mayor and cops would be daily targets in Australia.
@@dmdscreations2018 thanks for the update. I hope it was from prisoners getting some payback that they all met their demise. That would be fitting for the torture and wrongs the Mayor and his gang inflicted on others.
Unfortunately, everyone knows that the police are corrupt in the Philippines. It's also part of why I always dress like trash when I visit my family in there. These poor people did not deserve any of that. RIP, thank you for bringing this to people's attention.
My Mom is from the Philippines and 1/3 thru watching the podcast I told her about it, and it was mind blowing how she still remembers this case even tho years have past since then! Thank Stephanie for covering this case! ☺️
The way these two were doing nothing at all. Just living their lives, completely uninvolved, trying to succeed in college and this happened. It’s sick.
I hope they rest in peace 🕊 🤍 and I wish for their families to have strength every day to carry on :( This was heartbreaking and terrifying, I'm glad justice was served in the end eventhough it will never make up for all the trauma and loss. Those monsters will rot in hell
I asked my mom about this. Like I just mentioned what happened and not the victims name and she knew about it! She said it was such a wide scandal and issue during that time and she almost flew back home because of how dangerous it was.
I was in grade school when this happened. This was a bone-chilling story and I saw re-enactments on tv. Now that I am a mother I couldn’t imagine the pain both of their families went through esp Eileen’s. I couldn’t imagine the confusion, pain and fear she went through of every second from the moment they were abducted up until her last breath.
I’m from the Philippines but it’s my first time hearing this case, It made me think how painful and scary were her last moments alive and that breaks my heart. Thank you for covering this case, crimes here in Ph doesn’t always get solved due to high levels of corruption.
Thank you for bringing light to many cases that most of us wouldn’t have known about. I don’t know how you can make so many videos and not mix up stories since you post so many videos 👑 queen status 👑 I also don’t know how you don’t have nightmares from researching so many horrific cases. I don’t know if I could even sleep if I did this 😭
It’s the fact that we have people in this world who are supposed to protect and serve yet use their power to do unthinkable things to the people they’re supposed to be protecting I can’t believe what this world has come to, but Stephanie I love your work and everything you do. You are well appreciated. I love you.❤❤
I worked at a company where guys talk proudly about how he had seen girls getting abducted and sold. “She got tons of money after the deed was done, so it should be fine.” “holy shit that boss ficking passed her the guys at the larty like a bag” And they seemed genuinely impressed. It was horrifying. (I worked in a company that works with a lot of famous group of people in Asia. And that guy in the story was a big shot of the entertainment industry.)
Had to stop multiple times, took me almost three hours to get through it. What a devastating case, I cannot imagine the hurt and pain of the country, families, and victims.
I have no words that can properly convey what I'm feeling. Stephanie, your gift for constantly delivering true stories with such genuine heart is unmatched. I absolutely love and look forward to all your videos. That being said, I also cry and hurt for people I don't know and would never have heard of without your content. I appreciate so much how you present such difficult material. Thank you for sharing the victims' stories so beautifully. ❤
Until now Sanchez's family is in denial that their father is a monster.. i went to school with the grandkids but they never mention this. Then when we go to field trips and the tour guides find out we are from calauan this is the first thing they mention. This case that is forever scary and sad and heartbreaking.
My favorite part of your retelling is when you describe the victim’s personalities. It brings such life and empathy to their stories… it always makes me smile and feel so deeply for them. Truly you are an amazing storyteller. A dying tradition that I consider to be such a valuable skill. Thank you both.
The deaths of Allan and Eileen is so evil and senseless. Somehow, I'm so glad that those responsible for their death, did not get away and was rightly punished. Still sad and tragic though.😢
Been binge watching your videos and podcasts for weeks now. I stopped listening to crime stories for some time but I'm glad I found your channel(s). I really love how you tell stories. Thank you for keeping me awake while working!! 💕
Stephanie, your channel showed up in my recommendations and I started watching you a week ago. Your hard work, diligence, honesty and deep empathy for victims is incredibly moving. It is obvious that you put so much work into learning all the complicated details and sharing them to us in a way that we can follow along and understand. This case gutted me to the core, shocked me and angered me so much my body was literally hot with rage and sadness. What Eileen had to suffer tears my heart to shreds. Neither she nor Allan left this world without suffering more abuse and fear than I can even come close to imagining. May their souls have been surrounded by legions of angels and brought swiftly into the arms of their Lord. Rest in sweet peace both of you and watch over your loving family and friends. I will never ever forget the two of you. 💔🙏🙏
Its so satusfying to finally hear a story where the perpetrators dont get away with it or just a slap on the wrist. This type of closure is so few and far between❤
Your story telling skills and respect for the victims are amazing. Thank you for showing so much compassion for those effected in the disgusting crime. Thank you for all the hard work you do!
Are you kidding? She had no respect for these victims. She talked like she was talking about something fun and adventurous. Worst crime content creator. She is insensitive and disrespectful. She even laughed many times in the video.
@@adven661 damn someone is a hater....you know when your in such disbelief that you just sigh or chuckle because your like "this must be a joke..this person is disgusting poor babies.."...many people act differently than you in shock or fear.
Thanks for shedding light on this case, Stephanie. This hits close to home because I’m also from Los Baños. I ended up going to UPLB for my undergraduate studies, and I remember my mother telling me this case in depth because back in 2019 Mayor Sanches was set to walk free due to RA 1059 for early release based on good conduct time allowance. She was two years younger than Eileen and Alan. She recalls going home and hearing the news from her parents and watching the case unfold in the course of a semester. She must have felt scared for her life knowing that she couldn’t trust authorities for her safety, adding that she was studying in the same university that someone has been taken, r*ped, and K1lled. I’m glad that the men involved were put behind bars, and I hope for peace to the bereaved and to the souls of Eileen and Allan.
as an italian,when people tell me that they simp for mafia bosses or want to work in the mafia i get really mad...because this is EXACTLY what mafia does to little girls,people,families etc.
Unfortunately I knew exactly what was going on and who the monsters were from the go. It’s so horrific how much corruption exists in this world and the complete lack of morals and empathy. So sad for these two wonderful and bright souls…that had so much more to offer the world. Love and prayers to all of those that loved them and I know they are the most wonderful guardian angels. ❤❤
Stephanie.. you are so aware and conscious of what’s truly going on in the world and you are helping many people become the same way. Even by planting a small seed with one phrase you say. I applaud the work you and your team are doing. Thank you so much for the in-depth research and story telling y’all conduct!! ❤️❤️❤️
So many true crimes have been discussed in the past and this new channel was able to welcome those same stories to a well respectful space where I feel you handled with utmost sensitivity. We understand you work so hard to make us content and on top of that learning how to grow your creative journey while handling the criticisms from viewers. As a long time fan, someone who started watching you from your mukbangs, then vlogs from your second channel, and those amazing thriller stories from BAM, it was you who opened me up to learn about true crime stories I would have otherwise been too scared to listen to. But your amazing storytelling eased me into it so naturally! I feel after all those years of cumulating your audience with different interests, for the ones who stayed all this time, I feel like you really curated this channel for us and I want to thank you so so much! You deserve so so much love, and you have the enduring respect from us fans!
@@LordMountbutter oh tysm, I’ve tried to listen to other true crime channels but it felt distasteful sometimes. The humanity aspect would feel removed and the stories felt like they were simply told to satisfy true crime enthusiasts. With little empathy to the victims involved. It’s why I always come back to Stephanie. It’s like my best friend telling me a story. She handles these so well and really listened to her critics. She includes show notes, she works with translators to not only fact check but to understand the nuances of how these crimes affected, dealt with, and resonated with locals or netizens.
@@bananaslippers9 yeeeah! Empathetic and very delicate approach is what makes this podcast not only engaging, but also humane, very real, like you're almost a witness, which makes completely different impact than straightforward retelling.
Sometimes the stories could do without the mukbang and I think she experimented with that format a few times on her main channel which is why she created this new one
This is one of the most gruesome case I've heard. Hope those poor students found peace in their rest. And may the perpetrators and accomplices rot in hell.
This happened even before I was born. Thank you for bringing this to light. Only Biss tackles these less-known international stories and I'm here for it.
I was a kid when this tragic case happened. I remember seeing the actual devil on TV, with his ugly hair, fake ass smile and tons of religious artifacts in his home. He tried so hard to show that he is a religious family man in his interviews, but something was definitely off. You can see evil lurking in his eyes. His capture and the video of him falling down the stairs while cursing at the crowd has been played in the news over and over for days. I watched it over and over while cursing back at him.
I was a freshman at that time in that university and there was an eerie feeling around the campus while the investigation was still ongoing. Somehow, you know someone who knew the victims and there were many speculations surrounding the case. I still wonder where she could have been if that gruesome abduction and murder didn't happen. I feel very sorry for her parents. 😔
oh wow, i was LITERALLY just thinking about this case because this was talked a lot and discussed by my professors and i was wondering if you would make a video/episode about this. thank you for bringing attention to this case!
OMG! I never heard about this case. Like never. I’m from the country and in my 35 years, this case is so brutal and disgusting. Been through many cases from different countries from different channels, even in my own country but this… 🥺🥺🥺🥺 Stephanie, you’re the only one, I think has covered cases no other channels did. 🙌🏼
When Steph started mentioning about the Mayor at the start, I was already having my heart dropping down because I suddenly understood what happened very quickly 😞 it's sad to see that people struggle to rely their safety on the very same people who are harming their safety
I'm from the Philippines and this case was really chilling especially since it was reported in our own language... Stephanie mentioned that in the nearby area where Allen's body was found, there was a concerned citizen who reported that a woman's body was also found inside a vehicle. The one who reported to the cops that there was a dead body of a woman in the nearby area was named Rogelio (Alias “Boy”) Corcolon; he used to be the bodyguard of the evil Mayor Sanchez.
I watched Allan's mother interview. She said that Allan himself threw the wallet so that people will atleast know that they're missing. I remember listening to this disturbing story back then. Still the most disgusting story of r@pe in the Philippines.
I am hooked on your channel because you always tell the stories in a way that keeps my attention, you have stories that ive usually never heard of, you are lovable, and the genuine disgust/outrage that your boyfriend expresses toward these crimes make me emotional. Hes one of the good ones. He cares about these people you tell us about and it shows.
This case is beyond wild. The corruption, the evil of the ones that are supposed to serve and protect. I am sick to my stomach. Like this is so inhumane and unbelievable that sounds like the plot of a sick movie. In fact, as soon as you mentioned the mayors involvement it reminded me of a series I watched some years ago. Absolutely sickening!
Definitely one of the most infamous crime in the history of the Philippines. People will never forget this disgusting event. A spark reminder how people in power abuse their authority. Speaking of infamous crimes comitted by politicians, maybe you can also cover the "Maguindanao massacre". It's easily one of the worst crime committed in the recent history of the Philippines.
when I was young, this was the first glimpse that contributed to my fear of trusting country's own politicians and police. I remember seeing all the protest and news about this case so vividly. My mom even made efforts to bring and pick me up from school because I refused to leave the house on my own. This is truly devastating, and until this day, I still fear my safety as a woman, even under the "care" of the Philippines' police department and Government.
I just recently happened upon Rotten Mango and I'm obsessed!! My all-time favorite story teller, hands down. I have spent the better part of a perfectly good Saturday in my 'jammies watching one video after another. Ah well, a day well spent!!
Your storytelling is so good and I love the way you've evolved over the years. This story is heartbreaking, I feel so sorry for them, their families, friends and the entire community. It's horrible that we can't trust people who should protect us.
I really love how Stephanie characterizes the victims in each of these cases. She speaks so lovingly about their personalities, as if she knew them personally. That adds a really special touch to these stories.
Thank for the compassion in your storytelling. I remember reading about this in the news but listening to you tell the story made me teary-eyed. Yes, sadly, money still talks in the Philippines. Specially when the big fishes are involved.
I love how you're setting the spotlight to more unknown cases, especially here in the Philippines. We're all generally hospitable and happy people, but that's because we've been through a lot. Especially political crimes. Anyway, love from the PH! Wishing you and the mister a happy happy marriage! ❤️💕
The girl was my classmate and I was at the Uni when that happened. I was in class as they paraded the bodies around campus and we heard the screams as her sorority sisters were called in and identified her at the campus police HQ. The only reason the “mayor” was convicted was that he probably doesn’t know that the girl was part of a very powerful sorority. If you’re a member of said sorority you’re either very pretty or very rich. At the time their alumni were part of broadcasting media and or from affluent communities (i.e., residents of Forbes Park). It was a very scary time for us as the “mayor” was very known to be extremely violent and untouchable.
Thanks for featuring this.
That scary that your ex mayor and the ones raped and killed the poor girl were police officers.
What do you mean paraded? Weren't they covered? Did I miss something in this video? Glad they got 200+ years each though!
Interesting 🤔
@@krisj5561most probably a ceremony where the coffins were paraded (not a festive way obviously) around campus before the coffins were brought down under the ground.
@@18Robinson thank you for the information. That is awful. She deserved to be covered.
My Mom always retells this story to me because we live in the neighboring city. She said that Mayor Sanchez was really known for killing people and taking beautiful girls - Eileen and Allan were not his only victim. It just so happen that Eileen’s family also has some money, power and connection in the government so her case was pursued. If not, her killing will just be another town gossip and Sanchez will just continue to rule his town.
This is true. If youre poor in the Philippines nobody will cater to your problems. My former professor was brutally murdered by his Muslim girlfriend's family and was never given justice for it.
Not only that the University which this happened in is The University of the Philippines Los Banos.
And you know how gungho that university is when it comes to justice and most alumni of this University helped to convict this monster.
After reading the comments I went from "Even mayor isn't immune to justice in Phillipines, what a nice country" to "What the fuck, Phillipines!"
@florelle_5413 all Muslims might not be same, but what Islam teaches will remain same. And Quran instructs to kill the khafirs ☠️
at the end of the day, money really does talk
Looking at comments. This case had so much more .
1) mayor’s family supporting the mayor
2) his family not compensating the family
3) he was mayor of nearby town.
4) the girl was paraded 😢 without cover on her body .
5) there were a lot of similar cases this got highlighted because the girl was powerful too .
6) the mayor was known for kidnapping and abduction.
7) getting into this university means these were top tier students.
I might add that his lawyer was a top aide of former president Duterte. He was freed, along with several other detainees(all clients of the same lawyer, many guilty of equally heinous crimes). When it became public knowledge that he's out (illegally), death threats forced him back to prison.
I would also add that the state witness, a man ordered to bury the body, admitted to burying several other victims of the said mayor. Investigators found the remains where he said they were buried, but the mayor wasn't charged because nobody can identify the remains(there was no affordable DNA sequencing tech back then). Nothing but the words of an undertaker and unidentifiable remains(but mostly females of roughly the same age bearing the same bullet holes to the face)
Additionally, there was also a failed abduction attempt one year prior to this incident, the two men described as attempting to abduct a group of female students at gunpoint were among those charged in this case. Cases like these are among the reasons why mayors are no longer given the power to appoint or terminate police officers(which the previous president wants to restore).
Politicians and cops are in it together since tome imemorial. That’s Philippines.
Add to the list that the possibility of the high profile criminals and not just Mayor Sanchez but also the idc eh eh eh policeman murderer "died" and instantly cremated. It was controversial because 8 of them "died" around the same time and they were ALL HIGH PROFILE CASES. And no way to verify because the bodies were cremated immediately after taking pics as proof. It's infuriating
@@odinmatanguihan5086No affordable DNA test? Do police not have state backed funding? So if the family is poor, does their case get swept under the rug? WTF🤯😲
@@odinmatanguihan5086what has president Duterte, got to do with this case?
I will never EVER be able to wrap my mind around how MULTIPLE men are capable of sexual gratification while they are all taking turns and watching eachother torture, hurt, abuse and humiliate another person. Regardless of gender, age, situation in life, but especially when it involves a truly innocent young girl with hopes and dreams and a family that loves her. It just makes me feel sick and hopeless. So disgusting and evil.
There is a book that explores this called Our Guys, but as a warning is horribly disturbing as it is a true story. The gist of the theory is that men who commit group acts like this are using the situation as a way to bond with each other, which is horrifying. It mimics other scenarios where violence is used to facilitate bonding (war, contact sports)
@@ekkisnerta7430wtf 😢 I’m a dude but wtf is that 😵💫
@@ekkisnerta7430Thank you for the information.
@THAT GUY wow. That’s some deep shit man.
I know. Me either. It's so absolutely disgusting. It's a form of violence. I think that's why. I am not to sure. I totally agree. I think it's sick and sounds terrible to go through. I knew a girl when I was a teenager who's aunts boyfriend and his friends would do that to her every night for a whole year. When she was 14! Breaks my heart evetime I think about it.
This is my university and sadly it only got worse when i was there back in 2011. The SAs, robbery and the murders of students and children around the area got so bad that we had a 12 am curfew for months until a suspect was found. And as usual it was someone related to the authorities. 🤦🏻♀️
glad you're safe 🤍
For you guys to have a curfew at 12 am, things must has to be horrendous. 😱🤯
How terrifying and awful. I'm glad you made through OK.
the guy who was stabbed during holdup was my classmate in one of my subjects. it was so weird hearing the news the day after I just saw him in class 😢
@@leakim3861 omg! Is this the one in the back of the library?? That happened In front of my dorm and the girl he was with was an acquaintance of mine. We visited her when she was in the uni hospital. Bless her heart she even made jokes so none of us would cry.😣
that mayor was from my hometown in the Philippines. to this day, his son and daughter are either councilors or vice mayors. they have no SHAME. their names are DONG SANCHEZ, AMTY SANCHEZ
these students are from University of the Philippines Los Baños Laguna. May they rest in peace
They aren’t their dad though
@@javi5810they took the side of denying his guilt though & defended him & refused to pay court awarded damages to victims families. That’s guilt by association imo
not uncommon that when the father steps down, the other family members will take over the position lol it's like they made it in some kind of a heritage.
the people still voted for them?
When my mother was younger, she used to work at that mayor's sister-in-law's house years before he was imprisoned. When the news came out that he could be let out recently, she shared with us that whenever that mayor visited his sister-in-law, her boss would tell her and other girl workers to go home and not let themselves be seen by him. He was really infamous for kidnapping any girl that he liked and you would know it's true when his own relatives would be that cautious and try to protect their employees. We still live in the same area and we were scared that he would get out of jail that time.
😢 oh no. I hope you folks stay safe from that monster
I really that devil will not get out from the jail.
@@faithgoga3983he’s dead now isn’t he ?
@@eunicepangilinan3170 He died in mar 2021.

I came from the Philippines and I remember this being on the news and everyone was devastated and enraged. This remained one of the high profile cases to this day.

Wanted to add that another disgusting aspect of this case is that the mayors family is standing by him AND are refusing to pay the court ordered damages to the victims’ families. Like wtf is wrong with the wife saying “we have no intention to pay”, as a woman especially how can you say that
Wow , absolutely disgusting.
she insist that her husband is innocent. But the way she tolerated her husband's infidelity Im not really surprised of her attitude
that woman is disgusting
She shouldn't have kids especially daughters if she can stand by a rapist.
the mayor and his wife are on the same level of evil.
makes me wonder, do they have daughter or son?
the college students could easily be their son or daughter.
both of them are not human, even worst than monsters, pure evil.
This is probably one of the most traumatic event I've heard when I was very young. This case made me afraid of people of authority.
True, I couldn’t even comprehend that it happened in real life
same, plus ive seen it frist hand with my teachers and upperclasses, i used to attend 'military' esque high school and my god do teachers, principal, student council, seniors are obssesed with their power, and when i become a senior ive seen my class mates change like them aswell... :c god what an awfull place that was

One of the most disturbing moments of my University life. I attended the same University, Eileen was my batchmate, she was on the College of Agriculture while I was on the College of Engineering just a stone throw apart across the road. Eileen was my classmate on one of my cognate classes in Agronomy. Something as a choice outside the more rigorous classes in Engineering. Actually, she was on our lab group. I remember her as a very reserved person but yet fiesty and curious in a good sense and spot on one of the most recognizable figures around the campus without trying to be one. I remember her sitting alone in front of the Library lobby with her usual white shirt and levis jeans preparing for our exam,, looked at me very relaxed almost telling me not to worry. What happened that day changed my life.
Thank you for sharing her memory
Thanks for sharing her memory ❤
I was in the same university. The second digit of my student number is 2.
I was just meters away from where the abduction happened at the time they believe the abduction happened. There was an arcade there(coin operated video game machines), very close to Tops. I usually spend my time there after dinner, partly because of the power crisis and they have a generator. I had absolutely no idea something bad happened just meters from where I was.
.... I don't know what's more horrifying, that you were on th3 verge of death or that a find had b3en k1lled.
Just imagine how many men got away with R and Ending before DNA evidence was a thing, mind blowing and horrifying and terrifying.
I understand, horrifically, it's just how babies were made until we learned enough communication and sentience or whatever to go "Actually, you know what, no, I don't want to. Go away." without having to draw blood.
'Cause even cats have a way of saying 'GO AWAY STOP TOUCHING ME' without being able to speak human.
Now I'm wondering when us living 'sentient' beings, humans and animals, got enough brain power to know when we didn't like things and that we could say 'no'.
You'd be surprised how many get away even AFTER that. Sad truth of our society
@@rashi4553Yeah, especially those in power. They get away with a lot of things. Most heinous and despicable criminals in the Philippines are mostly those who are in power/authority.
@@Error-pd5gi unfortunately it's the same everywhere. People with power hardly ever use their powers for the right reasons.
@@rashi4553 I imagine the ones who try to arent a part of the club and get treated as such.
This case makes me sick to my stomach. How do people that are in power, that are suppose to protect the people just abuse their power! How sick are they that they would abuse and kill innocent lives!
There as allot of stories about PMs in the UK that did the same thing….. covered up a long time though
Its every where in every country. The strong destroy the weak. The smart survive.
This is truly a sad case but happens more than will ever be broadcasted.
It’s so true. Money and power like this corrupts every inch of the world. Evil lurks in the hearts of men and also women. I pray for our children and for this world of corruption. It is beyond tragic but every story told where money and power does not prevail and evil loses at the very least is a battle won. We need so many more monsters locked away in hell on earth. They will very likely meet in the same place after death. In the bowels of hell.
They are in power because they are the most ruthless and cruel. They view those below them as inferior and think nothing of them. If they had empathy the world would not be the way it is.
As a women, I have a underlying sensation of fear every single time I walk out of my house. Even just to get something from my car or do some yard work. I am afraid that some monster is gonna happen to see me and decide at that moment, for whatever reason, that I am his target.
What happened to this young woman is exactly why I feel afraid. He saw her for a split second and decided he wanted her.
I am sickened by the violence we see against women all over the world. Simply so that some creep can get off. Enough!!
As a single mum with a daughter, im also scared being in my own home. I wish i had someone else living with me so i didnt feel like such a target. Luckily i live in a fairly safe country, not a very good area tho. (Not that it seems to matter where you live, bad things can happen anywhere)
I feel you. You always have to be cautious as a woman. I was molested by my mother's boyfriend when I was 13 till 14 years. Someone I thought I could trust. My mother didn't even care. So never forget that other women can be bad too. So basically, you need to be careful with anyone. Not saying that you should immediately think bad of someone. I try to keep in mind that not everybody is like that. And that's the best thing you can do, because otherwise you'd go insane with paranoia and miss out on getting to know really good people. But definitely keep your eyes open for any red flags and always take those red flags seriously.
But yeah I definitely understand you. Try as I might, I always feel intimidated around men when I don't know them yet. I also don't go out on my own when it's dark, avoid places that have a reputation of being shady, don't go to an event without a group of friends etc. It's sad that we have to take precautions like that, but it's for our safety.
Get some surveillance and buy a shotgun..
I have social anxiety due to childhood sexual trauma and other SA traumas as an adult and after I broke up with my ex, I began having severe panick attacks because men did not stop catcalling me. I was on crutches and some of them (80%) wanted to "help me" by taking my crutches, and one man actually did and I could barely fucking walk so I turned around and yanked them out of his hands and fisted them like they were my weapons to protect me. It's insane what they did the moment I broke up with my ex and while crippled.
After this experience I honestly feel the way you described 24/7 and I literally threw my crutches in the corner of my room and haven't used them ever since and my ankle is still bad but at least no man is trying to take away the one thing that is holding me up...
My sister went missing for two months nearly 4 years ago now. During that time, there was a story running on the news about a young woman who'd been found dead at our local park. She'd been assaulted, beaten and then murdered. I was almost certain it was my sister.
I lost it for just a bit, there. Thankfully, it wasn't. But I've never quite been able to shake the terror and despair I felt on that day. I hate it with every fiber of my being and it is never far from my mind. I know for a fact that if that poor woman had been my sister, I would have never, ever recovered. Our last conversation before that had been a pretty nasty argument. I would have given anything in that moment to take it back.
In some ways, it's been a positive change in my life. I'm more cautious now and I always make sure I part ways with loved ones on good terms... but the fact that we have to live in such constant fear... I don't know man. I really don't know how to word it. It just aches.
Hi, Stephanie! The word they meant to go turbo here is more disgusting unfortunately. What the bad guys were referring to here when they said to go turbo on her is a metaphor to stuffing her like a chicken inside a turbo broiler. Here in the Philippines, it's popular to "turbo" the chicken wherein you stuff the chicken cavity with herbs and spices until it's overflowing. Then you put it in the Turbo broiler. Like what they did to her, they SAd her until she was overflowing with semen 😢
Hearing this makes it all the more heartbreaking 😢
The term the f'ers even used was "yung tinurbo ni sir" (what sir turbo'ed) implying how Sanchez really went all out on Eileen.
Awful😢
God no I am crying. I can't even imagine what she went through.
Omg, I can’t imagine. I can’t imagine. How violated and disgusting she felt, that is so sick I don’t even know what to say just wow horrible
Your storytelling is very engaging. Some things that I want to add because I was teaching in the university when this happened. Back then, classes in the Philippines start in June so it didn't happen during a summer break. Eileen's body was sent to the university police office without any cover so a lot of students saw and were horrified on that early morning. The university is in the town of Los Banos that has a different mayor. Mayor Sanchez ruled over a neighboring town called Calauan. He had the reputation of being corrupt through an illegal game of chance called jueteng, the same accusation that caused a Philippine president to be ousted. It is also noteworthy to mention that the parents of Aileen and Allan made sure that their children got the justice that they deserved.
Bumping! I hope Stephanie sees this
I love the way you deliver your story to the viewers,so intense and very detailed as if we were actually on the scene,kudos😊
Thanks for the clarifications I was a little confuse during the case with the different descriptions of the mayor, so they were two different mayors. And it was just cruel for them to paraded the bodies of the victims in the university they attended
is she still reading comments? well hopefully she reads this.
This case gave me nightmares the first time I heard about it. I studied at the same school, different campus, so I felt a certain connection to this young girl. As a young woman myself, what happened to her made me fear men.
The scary thing to me is it's not just men. I'm not defending like, yeah men do sexual attacks more but the horrific things humanity is capable of is so overwhelming if you think about it too long. I recommend like, seeking out the good in the world actively, because the negative stuff is presented to us without us looking for it just constantly.
@@takinekothis woman is talking about her personal connection and you have to come in giving your unsolicited opinion and advice? like come on you can not be serious right now, it is men, let her speak her truth.
@@Krymena takin isn’t trying to invalidate OP by saying “not just men”. They’re just saying that the amount of evil humanity is willing to do is scary
@takineko I see your point but it's irrelevant to the main commenter's point. As a woman, we have no way knowing which men would SA/kill us and which men we can trust. The devil looks like a common man, so to protect ourselves, we assume the worst in everybody especially when we're commuting alone at night. If you try to see the good in everybody at night in the streets of the Philippines, you'd end up chopped into pieces in the grass fields
@@takineko What is the matter with you? Read the room.
The fact that the mayor almost got away but fortunately didn't, is shocking. I am surprised that the President fired the individual who attempted to help the mayor escape. This type of accountability doesn't happen often enough due to corruption among those in power who are involved. However, I am pleased with the outcome of this case and the justice that the parents received.
There was alot of public outrage if there wasn't maybe the president wouldn't do anything.
The mayor’s daughter was a classmate when i was in elementary. I clearly remember how she ran away from our class because at that day it was announced that her dad, the mayor, was guilty. Los Baños has such a small community that almost everyone knows each other. So having this news at that time was really shocking and devastating. It was too close to home. It was scary for a kid like me too especially when you have met them personally and i was in disbelief that a father can do that to someone else’s daughter and son. Nobody deserves to die that way.
The convicted felon, ex-Mayor Sanchez was the former mayor of the town of Calauan.
@@jocelynandrade5220 Yep, Mr. Sanchez, the ex-mayor of Calauan is a felon.
What was the daughters reaction after. Was she standing by her father?
@@yaraabuzeidd at that time it was all over the news, so i saw her on TV, calling her dad out loud while reaching out to him. She was so small in a crowd of people. After that day, she never came back to school and so as her siblings.
UP is actually one of the top universities here in the Philippines. They're known to be activist, often criticize the government and fight on what they think is right. It has free tuition and students are often called 'iskolar ng bayan' which means scholar of the country. It's sad to think that they killed 2 people that definitely has big dreams, not only for themselves, but also for the country.
You know what I absolutely _love_ about Steph? Her ability to put you _inside_ these cases with her storytelling. She's so descriptive. Even her adlibs are amazing! My new favorite YTber.....
Thank you ma'am, you're badass! 💜🔥
you literally make the best intros, it’s so sharp and gets you hooked on the story so fast
The intro music is dreamy also!
Nobody should ever have to suffer like Eileen and Allan did.
Cases like these make me hope there is an afterlife and things are just so much better for these souls over there
I don't know if this will bring comfort to you, but I was being poisoned & didn't know it & died in an ambulance in 2018. My Service Dog was with me - he's my 4th dog & 3rd Service Dog. It was very painful & I was seizing & my chest hurt. My body hurt less as mu heartbeat got weaker & I had the conscious thought, "Well, this wasn't what I expected (dying that particular way) but I've had a crazy (full-ish, interesting) life."
Then I experienced the most profound peace & was in a nice bright cozy place with my trio of deceased dogs. I understood "the people & the rest of the things" were beyond my dogs, but then I was back in my body. I didn't have a "choice" like some explain - it wasn't asked whether or not I wanted to like, go back or not.
I could "see" the paramedics outside of the ambulance in my mind's eye - I couldn't really move or open my eyes. Sound came back first, but there was no machine beeping or sirens blaring. It was very quiet. I tried to sit up but couldn't, & still couldn't open my eyes; but I was able to flop my left arm down over the side of the stretcher, where it landed on my dog. I understood I was alive when I felt tangible dog fur again.
Eventually I was able to sit up & call for the paramedics. They came in & just kinda stopped & stared at me for minute. They were on the phone with their supervisor.
My dogs' souls definitely went somewhere. I definitely went somewhere - just not in my physical body. And it was nice. Where you have a question about the afterlife, I have questions about life because an afterlife is a known to me.
Eileen & Allen are at peace, with relatives gone before them, & with their childhood pets if they had any. They will likewise greet their loved ones someday when their time comes, too.
@@princesskileyrae That's so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your story, I'm faithful there truly is an afterlife where ones soul can be at eternal peace. ❤️
Although, on the other hand.. some people truly don't deserve to experience it..
This case is just sickening .
I know a lot of people get offended of the existence of heaven and hell but the way I see it, If there's no hell and heaven then there is no real justice.
@@princesskileyrae thank you for sharing. It brings a lot of peace. ❤
@@danielallanillos6712 you're very welcome 💜💜
The coverage is amazing as always. I think what was missed in the story is that U.P Los Banos is a branch of the University of The Philippines. Just like the main campus which is in Manila, it is very hard to get accepted. You have to be one of the smartest kids in the country to pass the entrance exam. Sometimes even if you pass, if the list is full, you won't be able to enroll. The students are called Nation's Scholar because the university is funded by the government. Knowing that the victims are not just your ordinary college student really hits hard. These guys are one of the most studious students you will find. All that hard work, that intelligence, that good was taken all for pleasure of a greedy scum. Glad he died in his cell.
Its all about power, some people exclaim oh that person had access to all the sex they could want why would they do that? Sure he is the mayor and with all the sex workers and mistresses he could get all anyone with a high libido could want. But he wants to take something against someones will, and to feel like he can have *anything* he wants. Its the power, its sick and gross.
As I remember, Eileen conducted an interview with the Mayor months before the murder. It was for there thesis. That is the time that the Mayor got interested with Aileen. So every night those men would be looking out for Eileen... There are also other students got raped by the Mayor but would not testify because they were too afraid.
That’s terrifying and so scary 😢 I wonder why he chose to let some of the people live after SA-ing but didn’t do the same for Eileen? So terrifying 😭
@@ritariza2835I would think it’s likely because her friend was taken too and he was killed. Many of the other victims were likely taken alone and therefore could be scared into silence.
@@ritariza2835I'm assuming it's because there was another witness present. If it's just a girl all by herself, in a more conservative country she might not want to come forward because of how people will treat her. Someone being there who could testify with her would make it more likely for her to come forward. If they kill him she would know and would probably talk to police, so they killed both
@@ritariza2835 Not blaming her in the slightest, but maybe she fought and she was not easily cowed by him? Also the boy being there complicated it, as there were two witnesses
@@MusMasi you’re right, that makes sense ! Unfortunately the additional witness probably did have a huge impact on the result :( they probably thought it would be risky to let them both go
I graduated from the same University as them. I remember my mom trying to stop me from studying there when I got accepted. My dad would have nightmares about me getting harmed. UPLB is vast, with a lot of wooded areas. Because of this case, we would never leave the dorms alone when it's dark. We would walk in groups, because of the dark paths. It's a beautiful university in the morning, but it's ominous at night. I never heard the details till now. Thank you for shining light to this case.
It gives comfort that this story is reaching content creators of other countries so that it will never be forgotten. Our people easily forgets thus easily "forgives".
Remember their names.
Agree! these kind of things should never be forgotten. As horrible as they might be, we MUST REMEMBER what has been done to innocent people like these two teenagers. The name of the monsters are the ones that must be plastered constantly everywhere.
as a filipino i appreciate you bringing light to these cases, it truly is horrifying and awful 😞
hope the ppl who did this will suffer excruciating and gratifyingly, what they did is just completely inhuman.
. Those types of people are excuses for human beings i hope the rot in hell and scream in agony
I was born and raised in the same municipality and attended the same uni, so this case is twice more horrifying to me. I remember my parents warning me about the dangers of staying out late, and they would mention this case (alongside a more recent one: look up Given Grace). When my friends and I were attending uni, we'd always make sure to walk as a group when it gets late. Cases like this remind me that simply existing as a woman in this world is already a danger, which makes me so sick and angry. I got really emotional, remembering feeling so helpless and scared frozen when I encountered vile men. They're literally everywhere. We don't deserve this. I really hope that they all rest in peace.
I appreciate you covering more cases from the PH, Stephanie! Let's all stay safe!
I know someone who knew someone that is a relative to Givem Grace's family, and there are details about that horrific case that he told me, i felt sick and still feeling sick when I remembered it.
Korean law could learn a lesson on how to punish R-worders because istg this is the first story she narrated that gave a satisfying sentence otherwise it’s always “they were given only 12 years and out on probation after 5mths” or some sh*t like that.
the ph government are very strict with rapists, assaulters, etc. They dont take these cases lightly but their very lenient with corruption lol.
there's even a city in the Philippines that when somebody is proved to have R***d or SAd somebody, you will definitely die the next day. the police will not say anything about it. some media may or may not cover it but everybody would know why this person died. i'm not saying this is a good practice. just know that there are people/group of people who doesn't just forgive and settle to just jailing perpetrators for their crime.
@@chinllanos6392 and after you received your sentence & you were sent to jail. The prisoner will do the same thing you did to your victim once they found out that you were convicted of SA. People in the PH really hate that kind of crime.
It's scary to even imagine that we are surrounded by these type of monsters.

This is such a scary case…too many of such cases are happening to students…. Thanks for bringing awareness to such cases Stephanie ❤
My heart hurts for Eileen. She did nothing to be in so much pain. I think crimes this horrendous should have a sentence or punishment that is as horrendous as the crime they did.
For Allan as well he was just at the wrong place at the wrong time
@@Tani.rahh06the comment was about the girl she suffered way more .
The hardest working content creator and story teller on the platform hands down no competition what an impressive job you do Stephanie, your work ethics are mind blowing you’re creating such a rich legacy for not only yourself but also for all the young people watching you and looking up to you, and adults like us who need honest intelligent and respectful coverage of cases, especially those with a sensitive nature, i don’t know the specific strategy of which Stephanie and her team process cases but I know it’s one of the most effective I’ve ever seen.
💯💯💯💯
100 percent agree!
she releases 2 hour to an hour and a half episodes every week its insane especially when she uploads on two other channels. definitely the hardest working
It’s so impressive idk how she does it 😭😭
Agreed 100%
Words can't describe how much I feel sorry for Eileen...those moments must have been nothing but pure hell to her. I trembled when you told what they did to her.
I can't believe we live on a planet where people can do such horrendous things. Those are truly monsters and they should rot pathetically for what they've done.
Right! And her pleading to please spare her life after they’ve tooken everything else they could from her , than to gag her kill her and laugh about it otw home like it’s some kind of funny movie they was watching SICK SICK SICK!
Best narration ever. I love how your narration just transfers me to the crime scene as if I'm witnessing it happen. I listen to every single one of your videos while working my 9 to 5 job. You help me a lot and also millions of others I hope.
My sister attended a semester in this university about a decade ago. At that time, there was another female student who was SA'd. It was truly frightening.
What do u mean by SA'd?

I'm from the Philippines and been into true crime for a while now. But I have never heard abt this case. Thankyou for this Stephanie ❤❤❤
You might still be young, the case concluded in 1993. It was really sensationalized back then. There was even a movie made about it. If I'm not mistaken, Kris Aquino starred in it.
@@Dntmindwhtshere yea i was definitely not born in 1993
Same here. I feel like Ampatuan Massacre content is most likely to be discussed next. That could be the most horrifying crime of the 20th century if we are to base it on the number of victims.
@@Dntmindwhtshere what movie??
I was 14 when this happened... It has been 30 years but i can still remember this case
There's also a case from Paloma an inspiring actress. She was R and SA by a celebrity and politicians here in the Philippines. She tried to seek justice but her truth was heavily corrupted, she took her life and her oppressors are one of the richest people today here in our country.
You are referring to Pepsi Paloma, that was her name, not the place where she came from or where it happened.
Pretty sure this was just allegations
It allegedly happened. We don't know if it really happened.
@@tallahoramismojust by the fact she took her own life I know it happen
When I left the Philippines in ‘73, it was alleged that the popular entertainers Tito, Vic, and Joey were the perpetrators but was never proven. Now Vic is a politician, right? That’s justice for you in the PI, unfortunately.
It is most likely than not that Eileen and Allan were not the only victims of these gang and their powerful mastermind boss and his family! May they all pay for their crimes a million times worse!
Exactly. Based on the sheer brutality of the crime, its safe to say that they were used to doing this. Maybe they didn’t go as far as murder but they probably have prior cases of SAs and harassment.
My cousins husband attended the engineering uni on campus. His ex gf was close with her and in the sorority. Everyone in this sorority had money and connections. She was not the first, but she was the first with the power to do something
That was horrific and heartbreaking 💔 Listening to what Eileen suffered had flashbacks to the evil rape and murder of Anita Cobby here in Australia. They are still in jail and will die there too.
As will Eileen and Alan’s disgusting offenders. I’m so glad the Major in the Police Department didn’t back down nor the people of the Phillipines. Justice must be served as there’s never closure for the families.
RIP Eileen and Alan ❤️
What bad is the criminals was the mayor and the police officers.
@@Kt-cn2rq I agree! Absolute power corrupts absolutely. The Mayor was a despicable, evil mongrel. As were the coppers that were happy to do his bidding with no care for their victims. I don’t know how it works in the Phillipines, but if a Mayor and a bunch of cops went to prison here for a gang rape and murder, they would have to be in protective custody the whole life sentence. The other prisoners would try and find a way to kill them constantly. Even rapists that aren’t cops suffer, but a Mayor and cops would be daily targets in Australia.
3 died in jail last 2019. the mayor also died in jail in 2021.
@@dmdscreations2018 thanks for the update. I hope it was from prisoners getting some payback that they all met their demise. That would be fitting for the torture and wrongs the Mayor and his gang inflicted on others.
Unfortunately, everyone knows that the police are corrupt in the Philippines. It's also part of why I always dress like trash when I visit my family in there. These poor people did not deserve any of that. RIP, thank you for bringing this to people's attention.
It’s so nice to see you cover cases from all over the world!! I wouldn’t be educated about these kinds of cases otherwise
My Mom is from the Philippines and 1/3 thru watching the podcast I told her about it, and it was mind blowing how she still remembers this case even tho years have past since then! Thank Stephanie for covering this case! ☺️
both young people could be grandparents by now.
The way these two were doing nothing at all. Just living their lives, completely uninvolved, trying to succeed in college and this happened. It’s sick.
I hope they rest in peace 🕊 🤍 and I wish for their families to have strength every day to carry on :( This was heartbreaking and terrifying, I'm glad justice was served in the end eventhough it will never make up for all the trauma and loss. Those monsters will rot in hell
I asked my mom about this. Like I just mentioned what happened and not the victims name and she knew about it! She said it was such a wide scandal and issue during that time and she almost flew back home because of how dangerous it was.
SAME I asked her about UP Los Banos and she knew instantly
Learning who the actual perpetrators were, it's so unbelievable it feels like a movie. It's so disgusting and sad.
I love how you tell the stories about the victims lives when they were alive. You're so sincere.
I was in grade school when this happened. This was a bone-chilling story and I saw re-enactments on tv. Now that I am a mother I couldn’t imagine the pain both of their families went through esp Eileen’s. I couldn’t imagine the confusion, pain and fear she went through of every second from the moment they were abducted up until her last breath.
I’m from the Philippines but it’s my first time hearing this case, It made me think how painful and scary were her last moments alive and that breaks my heart. Thank you for covering this case, crimes here in Ph doesn’t always get solved due to high levels of corruption.
Really? I thought the 2019 good conduct controversy would make you aware of this case. Oh well.
Same,,, I'm 19 though so that's probably why?
Thank you for bringing light to many cases that most of us wouldn’t have known about. I don’t know how you can make so many videos and not mix up stories since you post so many videos 👑 queen status 👑
I also don’t know how you don’t have nightmares from researching so many horrific cases. I don’t know if I could even sleep if I did this 😭
It’s the fact that we have people in this world who are supposed to protect and serve yet use their power to do unthinkable things to the people they’re supposed to be protecting I can’t believe what this world has come to, but Stephanie I love your work and everything you do. You are well appreciated. I love you.❤❤
I worked at a company where guys talk proudly about how he had seen girls getting abducted and sold. “She got tons of money after the deed was done, so it should be fine.” “holy shit that boss ficking passed her the guys at the larty like a bag”
And they seemed genuinely impressed. It was horrifying.
(I worked in a company that works with a lot of famous group of people in Asia. And that guy in the story was a big shot of the entertainment industry.)

Had to stop multiple times, took me almost three hours to get through it. What a devastating case, I cannot imagine the hurt and pain of the country, families, and victims.
I don’t understand how evil people can be…. My brain just can’t even comprehend how people can think this way.
This case is sickening. How can monsters like this exist?
Thanks for the awareness Stephanie.
I have no words that can properly convey what I'm feeling. Stephanie, your gift for constantly delivering true stories with such genuine heart is unmatched. I absolutely love and look forward to all your videos. That being said, I also cry and hurt for people I don't know and would never have heard of without your content. I appreciate so much how you present such difficult material. Thank you for sharing the victims' stories so beautifully. ❤
Until now Sanchez's family is in denial that their father is a monster.. i went to school with the grandkids but they never mention this. Then when we go to field trips and the tour guides find out we are from calauan this is the first thing they mention. This case that is forever scary and sad and heartbreaking.
My favorite part of your retelling is when you describe the victim’s personalities. It brings such life and empathy to their stories… it always makes me smile and feel so deeply for them. Truly you are an amazing storyteller. A dying tradition that I consider to be such a valuable skill. Thank you both.
The deaths of Allan and Eileen is so evil and senseless. Somehow, I'm so glad that those responsible for their death, did not get away and was rightly punished. Still sad and tragic though.😢
For real may him and her R.I.P. tho.
This was a known case in UPLB where I studied, and I was so heartbroken hearing the people who knew the case first hand 😢
I really appreciate how clean you talk about SA. It makes it easier to listen to. You give a lot of detail without being graphic. I really enjoy that.
Been binge watching your videos and podcasts for weeks now. I stopped listening to crime stories for some time but I'm glad I found your channel(s). I really love how you tell stories. Thank you for keeping me awake while working!! 💕
Stephanie, your channel showed up in my recommendations and I started watching you a week ago. Your hard work, diligence, honesty and deep empathy for victims is incredibly moving. It is obvious that you put so much work into learning all the complicated details and sharing them to us in a way that we can follow along and understand. This case gutted me to the core, shocked me and angered me so much my body was literally hot with rage and sadness. What Eileen had to suffer tears my heart to shreds. Neither she nor Allan left this world without suffering more abuse and fear than I can even come close to imagining. May their souls have been surrounded by legions of angels and brought swiftly into the arms of their Lord. Rest in sweet peace both of you and watch over your loving family and friends. I will never ever forget the two of you. 💔🙏🙏
Its so satusfying to finally hear a story where the perpetrators dont get away with it or just a slap on the wrist. This type of closure is so few and far between❤
Your story telling skills and respect for the victims are amazing. Thank you for showing so much compassion for those effected in the disgusting crime. Thank you for all the hard work you do!

Thanks for shedding light on this case, Stephanie.
This hits close to home because I’m also from Los Baños. I ended up going to UPLB for my undergraduate studies, and I remember my mother telling me this case in depth because back in 2019 Mayor Sanches was set to walk free due to RA 1059 for early release based on good conduct time allowance. She was two years younger than Eileen and Alan. She recalls going home and hearing the news from her parents and watching the case unfold in the course of a semester.
She must have felt scared for her life knowing that she couldn’t trust authorities for her safety, adding that she was studying in the same university that someone has been taken, r*ped, and K1lled.
I’m glad that the men involved were put behind bars, and I hope for peace to the bereaved and to the souls of Eileen and Allan.
as an italian,when people tell me that they simp for mafia bosses or want to work in the mafia i get really mad...because this is EXACTLY what mafia does to little girls,people,families etc.
Thank you for working so hard for us steph. Love you !
Unfortunately I knew exactly what was going on and who the monsters were from the go. It’s so horrific how much corruption exists in this world and the complete lack of morals and empathy.

So many true crimes have been discussed in the past and this new channel was able to welcome those same stories to a well respectful space where I feel you handled with utmost sensitivity. We understand you work so hard to make us content and on top of that learning how to grow your creative journey while handling the criticisms from viewers. As a long time fan, someone who started watching you from your mukbangs, then vlogs from your second channel, and those amazing thriller stories from BAM, it was you who opened me up to learn about true crime stories I would have otherwise been too scared to listen to. But your amazing storytelling eased me into it so naturally! I feel after all those years of cumulating your audience with different interests, for the ones who stayed all this time, I feel like you really curated this channel for us and I want to thank you so so much!

@@LordMountbutter oh tysm, I’ve tried to listen to other true crime channels but it felt distasteful sometimes. The humanity aspect would feel removed and the stories felt like they were simply told to satisfy true crime enthusiasts. With little empathy to the victims involved. It’s why I always come back to Stephanie. It’s like my best friend telling me a story. She handles these so well and really listened to her critics. She includes show notes, she works with translators to not only fact check but to understand the nuances of how these crimes affected, dealt with, and resonated with locals or netizens.
@@bananaslippers9 yeeeah! Empathetic and very delicate approach is what makes this podcast not only engaging, but also humane, very real, like you're almost a witness, which makes completely different impact than straightforward retelling.

To this day, the children of the Mayor still hold power in the area
This happened even before I was born. Thank you for bringing this to light. Only Biss tackles these less-known international stories and I'm here for it.
I was a kid when this tragic case happened. I remember seeing the actual devil on TV, with his ugly hair, fake ass smile and tons of religious artifacts in his home. He tried so hard to show that he is a religious family man in his interviews, but something was definitely off. You can see evil lurking in his eyes. His capture and the video of him falling down the stairs while cursing at the crowd has been played in the news over and over for days. I watched it over and over while cursing back at him.
I was a freshman at that time in that university and there was an eerie feeling around the campus while the investigation was still ongoing. Somehow, you know someone who knew the victims and there were many speculations surrounding the case. I still wonder where she could have been if that gruesome abduction and murder didn't happen. I feel very sorry for her parents. 😔
oh wow, i was LITERALLY just thinking about this case because this was talked a lot and discussed by my professors and i was wondering if you would make a video/episode about this. thank you for bringing attention to this case!
OMG! I never heard about this case. Like never. I’m from the country and in my 35 years, this case is so brutal and disgusting. Been through many cases from different countries from different channels, even in my own country but this… 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Stephanie, you’re the only one, I think has covered cases no other channels did. 🙌🏼
When Steph started mentioning about the Mayor at the start, I was already having my heart dropping down because I suddenly understood what happened very quickly 😞 it's sad to see that people struggle to rely their safety on the very same people who are harming their safety
THANK YOU FOR POSTING STEPHANIE!! I APPRECIATE YOUR WORK
Huge respect to major Connie 🫡
RIP Eileen and Allan may you be the happiest , safe in next life.🕊️
I'm from the Philippines and this case was really chilling especially since it was reported in our own language...
Stephanie mentioned that in the nearby area where Allen's body was found, there was a concerned citizen who reported that a woman's body was also found inside a vehicle. The one who reported to the cops that there was a dead body of a woman in the nearby area was named Rogelio (Alias “Boy”) Corcolon; he used to be the bodyguard of the evil Mayor Sanchez.
I watched Allan's mother interview. She said that Allan himself threw the wallet so that people will atleast know that they're missing. I remember listening to this disturbing story back then. Still the most disgusting story of r@pe in the Philippines.
Daisys destruction still remains the worst for me
I am hooked on your channel because you always tell the stories in a way that keeps my attention, you have stories that ive usually never heard of, you are lovable, and the genuine disgust/outrage that your boyfriend expresses toward these crimes make me emotional. Hes one of the good ones. He cares about these people you tell us about and it shows.
I knew these 2 students and the mayor personally. The while thing was devastating. To this day, this still haunt me.
This case is beyond wild. The corruption, the evil of the ones that are supposed to serve and protect. I am sick to my stomach. Like this is so inhumane and unbelievable that sounds like the plot of a sick movie. In fact, as soon as you mentioned the mayors involvement it reminded me of a series I watched some years ago. Absolutely sickening!
Do you remember the name of the serie ?
@@themothers it's a Thai series called manner of death
Definitely one of the most infamous crime in the history of the Philippines. People will never forget this disgusting event. A spark reminder how people in power abuse their authority. Speaking of infamous crimes comitted by politicians, maybe you can also cover the "Maguindanao massacre". It's easily one of the worst crime committed in the recent history of the Philippines.
What I love about these videos is how she is actually talking to someone and he’s asking questions and most of the questions are what I’m thinking
when I was young, this was the first glimpse that contributed to my fear of trusting country's own politicians and police. I remember seeing all the protest and news about this case so vividly. My mom even made efforts to bring and pick me up from school because I refused to leave the house on my own. This is truly devastating, and until this day, I still fear my safety as a woman, even under the "care" of the Philippines' police department and Government.
I love the hard work and effort she puts Into every video to make us happy keep working hard girl.
I just recently happened upon Rotten Mango and I'm obsessed!! My all-time favorite story teller, hands down. I have spent the better part of a perfectly good Saturday in my 'jammies watching one video after another. Ah well, a day well spent!!
Your storytelling is so good and I love the way you've evolved over the years. This story is heartbreaking, I feel so sorry for them, their families, friends and the entire community. It's horrible that we can't trust people who should protect us.
I really love how Stephanie characterizes the victims in each of these cases. She speaks so lovingly about their personalities, as if she knew them personally. That adds a really special touch to these stories.
Thank for the compassion in your storytelling. I remember reading about this in the news but listening to you tell the story made me teary-eyed. Yes, sadly, money still talks in the Philippines. Specially when the big fishes are involved.
I love how you're setting the spotlight to more unknown cases, especially here in the Philippines. We're all generally hospitable and happy people, but that's because we've been through a lot. Especially political crimes.
Anyway, love from the PH! Wishing you and the mister a happy happy marriage! ❤️💕
