Suspek sa pagpatay sa Grade 12 sa lodging house, kinasuhan noon ng pagpatay sa sariling ama

The suspect in the killing of 18-year-old Mae Fatima Tagactac, was reported to have a dark background since he was allegedly the primary suspect in the murder of his own father in 2023.

According to the report of Sunstar, the suspect allegedly stabbed his father, 63-year-old Police Major Lorenzo Larot, 21 times.

News5 reported that the policeman was a retired officer when he was murdered.

This detail came after the news site mentioned that the background of the suspect was checked and news sites based in Mindanao reported on the said crime in 2023.

The killing of the suspect's father happened in Purok 2, Brgy. Balacanas, Villanueva, Misamis Oriental, on Hunyo 7, 2023.

The suspect then allegedly fled after the commission of the crime.
