Mother- Young Rizal experienced injustice through his mother, this was the arbitrary arrest of his
mother on a malicious charged that she allegedly aided her brother Jose Alberto in trying to poisons
Alberto’s wife. His mother should have been confined in the municipal jail of Calamba, but because
there is no apparent valid reason the judge ordered that Dona Teodora be sent immediately to the
provincial jail in Sta. Cruz and there his mother Dona Teodora was forced to walk on foot under the
scorching heat of the sun, from Calamba to Santa mother languished in jail. The constitutional right of
the accused in this particular case to have a speedy, impartial, and public trial was not observed because
his mother’s case dragged on until it reached the Supreme Court. Inspite of the injustice that his mother
experienced in the judicial system, her mother remained calm resolute and courageous and accepted
her fate and that his mother believed that with God’s help, the court would finally recognized her
innocence and the truth would prevail.
