Fear, disbelief and painful emotions gripped the family of murder victim Allan Gomez when media reports came out that the man responsible for his death and the rape-slay of his college

“It’s like my heart is being crushed,” OJ Gomez told the Inquirer in an online interview on Wednesday.

“We are all fearing for our lives. I also fear for the town of Calauan and their townspeople,” OJ said. “We are trying to move on but we do remember them [Allan and Eileen] always.”Sarmenta’s mother, Clara, said in a television interview that all the pain and anguish she felt right after her daughter’s brutal killing came rushing back after learning about Sanchez’s impending release.

“It will create fear not only among residents of Calauan but also in UPLB,” Berris said in a phone interview on Wednesday. Lawyer Filemon Nolasco, who represented the Gomez family at Sanchez’s trial, urged the Department of Justice to take the gruesomeness of the crime into consideration before it proceeds with Sanchez’s release.

Panelo also doused speculations that he may have had a hand in Sanchez’s impending release, saying he left his client’s legal team even before the former mayor appealed his conviction. “If they are released because they have served their reduced sentence, that’s for good. The reduced sentence is a reward for good conduct, not for any other reason,” he added.
