It all took place on a quiet night in June of 1991. By the time morning came, three members of the Vizconde family would be found brutally murdered inside their home in BF Homes, Parañaque, in the Philippines. A mother stabbed multiple times to her death, her eldest daughter stabbed and sexually assaulted, and even the youngest daughter, just seven years old, was not spared either. It was a crime so brutal and shocking that it left an indelible mark on the nation, quickly drawing widespread media attention, but ultimately leaving the family still searching for justice.
Part 1 - We detail the immediate aftermath of the brutal attack in June of 1991, as well as the complications surrounding the investigation of this case.
Part 2 - We follow up with the lead suspects of the case, as well as the controversial court case that many wouldn't soon forget.

It was the evening of 2nd December 1984. Residents of Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India, were sound asleep when they were rudely awoken by an invisible threat. Many stumbled out of bed clutching their throats and rubbing their eyes, the neighbourhood was filled with the sound of coughing and screaming, mothers rushed outside clutching their children only to collapse after a few steps. Over time, this would be remembered by thousands as one of the worst industrial disasters in history; but the worst part is, that the culprits were never held fully accountable for over 40 years.
