March 14, 2007 1:30 am, last seen alive

She has a pending case of custody against her husband, jimenez.

Since that day she has been missing. They were not able to find her despite issuing a reward of P500,000

Manuel Montero had tagged Manuel Jimenez III and his father Manuel
Jimenez Jr. as the masterminds in the killing of Ruby Rose, supposedly for
causing shame to the family in the custody fight over Barrameda and Jimenez
III’s children
On May 18, 2009 and June 11, 2009, Montero [a former employee of the Buena
Suerte Jimenez Fishing and Trading Corp (BSJ Company)] owned by the
Jimenezes) executed sworn statements confessing his participation in the killing
of Ruby Rose Barrameda (Ruby Rose), and naming petitioner Jimenez, Lope
Jimenez (Lope, the petitioner Jimenez's younger brother), Lennard A.
Descalso (Lennard) alias "Spyke," Robert Ponce (Robert) alias "Obet," and Eric
Fernandez (Eric), as his co-conspirators.
The statements of Montero which provided the details on where the alleged steel
casing containing the body of Ruby Rose was dumped, led to the recovery of a
cadaver (june 10, 2009), encased in a drum and steel casing, near or practically
at the place that Montero pointed to
She was allegedly kidnapped and strangled to death upon the Jimenezes’
orders in the family’s fishing compound in Malabon, before their henchmen
dumped her body off the shore in Navotas on March 14, 2007.  It was Montero
who in June 2009 pinpointed the location where Ruby Rose’s body was
dumped.

The court in 2015 expunged from the records Montero’s testimony because it
did not finish direct and cross-examination. Montero did not show up in court
from March to May 2015 to complete his testimony.

Montero had also recanted his testimony in a handwritten statement filed

before the court on May 12, 2013, weeks after he escaped from witness
protection in Camp Bagong Diwa on March 20, 2013.

Before he recanted his testimony, Montero had accused Fernandez, Norberto

Ponce and Lennard “Spyke” Descalso of strangling Ruby Rose to death and
cementing her upon the orders of the Jimenezes. He accused Lope Jimenez,
Jimenez Jr.’s brother, of giving them P50,000 for the killing.
