    Hubert Webb, now 41 years old, and 6 others who were also convicted for the same case were acquitted by the Supreme Court and have been ordered to be released from jail.

    The other 6 are Antonio "Tony Boy" Lejano (son of Pinky de Leon and nephew of Christopher De Leon), Michael Gatchalian, Miguel Rodriguez, Hospicio "Pyke" Fernandez, Peter Estrada and former police officer Gerardo Biong.

    The decision was made 15 years after Hubert Webb and co. were imprisoned in
    1995. They were convicted twice for the case, in 2000 by the Parañaque RTC and in 2005 by the Court of Appeals.

    As reported by ABS-CBN News earlier, 7 Justices voted for Hubert's
    acquittal while only 4 were against it.

    It's indeed an early Christmas gift for the Webb family who has been
    fighting for Hubert's innocence.

    But of course, it's definitely not a merry Christmas for Mr. Lauro Vizconde, who nearly collapsed after the Supreme Court gave its order,
    as shown on the video by ABS-CBN News Patrol.

    Mr. Vizconde lost his wife and two daughters in the said massacre, and with this latest development, he will be starting all over again in fighting for justice.

    Do you think the Supreme Court has made the right decision?

    And now that Webb and 6 others have been proven NOT GUILTY in the case, who really killed the Vizconde(s)?

    Maybe we have to wait for another 19 years for the Vizconde Massacre Case to finally be resolved.
