News on Hubert Webb




Hubert Webb - Acquitted. Hubert Webb was released from prison on Tuesday.
Hubert Webb along with his co-accused in the Vizconde massacre case walked out of the New Bilibid Prison after the Supreme Court released its decision acquitting the convicts for the murders of  the Vizconde women, Estrellita and her daughters Carmela and Jennifer in 1991.
Framed or not? is the next issue that is yet to be proven.  Guilty or not, who knows? For who are we to judge them?  Let God be their judge.  I guess for an outsider like me, they've already suffered in prison.  And we will never know the pain & emotional suffering they went through.
Of course, for Hubert's family, it's a feeling of answered prayers and granted wishes..... a happy Christmas is what they're in for...  After 15 long years behind bars and 15 Christmases spent apart.
For Mr. Vizconde, a very sad  and painful one for not getting the justice he so long prayed for.  I pray that he finds peace.  Let the real culprits be nagged by their conscience and the ghosts of the victims all the remaining days of their lives.

For Jessica Alfaro, the so-called "Star Witness", Perjury may be a case against her for lying & fooling everyone under oath.  I personally have doubted her from the start.
Presently, I guess they all just need to get their bearings first.  It's a time for catching up on the 15 years they missed.  To them, everything is new.  It is obvious that they still feel fear, not for the murder they are accused of, but fear of confronting all the changes around them.  Who wouldn't be if you were locked in the four corners of your jail cell for 15 long years.  
Let them be.  It's their right to live their life again.
