PREFATORY STATEMENT
“The elements of conspiracy are the following: (1) two or more persons
came to an agreement; (2) the agreement concerned the commission of
felony; and (3) the execution of the felony was decided upon. Proof of the
conspiracy need not to be based on direct evidence, because it may be
inferred from the parties’ conduct indicating a common understanding
among themselves with respect to the commission of the crime. Neither is
it necessary to show that the two or more persons met together and
entered into an explicit agreement setting out the details of an unlawful
scheme or objective to be carried out. The conspiracy may be deduced
from the mode or manner in which the crime was perpetrated, it may also
be inferred from the acts of the accused evincing a joint or common
purpose and design, concerted action and community of interest.”1

CONTRARY TO LAW.
Parañaque City
July 13, 2021.
THE JUDGMENT
The Court, in its judgment dated March 26, 2024 and promulgated on
April 26, 2024 states that:
SO ORDERED.
Parañaque City, March 26, 2024.
The private complainant even begged the accused John not to leave
his first family, but to no avail
Their son, Yhan testified that co-accused Estern used to go with him
and his father and even gave him toys. (page 11, Judgment)
Co-accused Doc Estern opted not to testify and not present her
countervailing evidence, thus only accused John’s evidence was
considered by the Court,
It takes two to tango. The couple’s son Yhan testified that when he
was about five (5) years old, co-accused Doc Estern already knew that
accused John was married already to Yhan’s mother, the private
complainant.
The co-accused cohabited with accused John for so long, thus giving
birth to three children. It is impossible for co-accused Doc Estern not to
know that accused John is in fact married to the private complainant. She
must have known as early as 2003, of the married status of the father of
her three daughters. Thus this is not treading on assumptions but on fact.
Doc Estern must have known the status of accused John during their
cohabitation. As a matter of fact as early as 2003 the private complainant
already confronted and informed co-accused Doc Estern about her
marriage to accused John.
Please note that the three daughters of both accused were born in
September 11, 2004, March 2006 and the youngest was born definitely
after 2006. And the confrontation happened in 2003. Clearly, despite of
learning in 2003 that accused John was already married, she continued her
illicit after with accused John, thus producing their three (3) daughters.
