“There are many options on our part. The Dacera family can go to the Department of Justice to appeal this dismissal or we can refile this case,” Brick Reyes, lawyer of the Dacera family, said on Tuesday, April 27.
“We are not going to say amen to this dismissal because we are looking for truth and justice not only for Christine Dacera,” Reyes stressed.
In a 19-page resolution dated April 23, Assistant City Prosecutor Joan G. Bolina-Santillan said “this office finds that the evidence presented are insufficient to engender a well-founded belief that rape, homicide, or rape with homicide has been committed.”

NBI Deputy Director Ferdinand Lavin said in a text message on Thursday, Jan. 14, those who have already appeared before NBI investigators were “12 from Room 2207.”
It has been learned that Dacera rented with her friends Room 2209 of the City Garden Grand Hotel to celebrate the new year and that they mingled also with occupants of Room 2207.
Dacera was found unconscious last Jan. 1 in the bath tub of Room 2209 of the hotel that she rented with her friends to celebrate the new year.
She was rushed to the Makati Medical Center but was declared dead on arrival.
Lavin said investigators have also invited the men who stayed with Dacera at Room 2209.
