kill the victim and her mother;
9 That sometime on August 28, 20013, the accused again
attempted to rape the victim but was not able to do so
because her mother suddenly came looking for her. Her
mother knocked on the door in doubt that the victim was
alone inside the house. When her mother came in, she
investigated inside, opened the door of the comfort room
and saw the accused sitting on the toilet. The mother
asked the accused why is he there. The mother of the
victim noticed that there is something wrong with the
former. The accused seemed so defensive thats why the
mother thought that the accused might have hurt the
victim. The mother of the victim got angry as well as the
accused and they quarreled. The accused threatened the
mother that he would hurt her if she tried to tell her
siblings regarding what happened on that day;

victim, Carina, told her mother that she saw the accused
peeking at her while she was taking a bath;

to the victim and to her younger sister;
