Legal Writing- Sunday

Julia Torres, eighteen years of age, single said that she went to the house of Celia at Barrio Talaan,
Lian Batangas, on June12 at 7 p.m. to attend a wedding party. She saw her suitor, Ronald Galang,
but ignored him since she disliked him.

At 11 p.m. Julia took leave to go home alone. This did not bother her because he knew everyone in
the barrio. She took a short cut across Mario Perez’s farm. About fifty meter meters from
the latter’s house, Ronald came behind her and asked that he walk her home. She declined, but
Ronald caught her arm and wrestled her on the rough ground, covering her mouth so she could not
shout.

Julia struggled to get free, but Ronald pointed a knife at her side and threatened to stab her. Out
of fear, she gave in and he ravished her.
After the rape, Julia kept the matter to herself for fear of trouble if her parents and brothers found
out. But, she finally told her aunt. They went to the police, and she submitted to medical
examination.
