“Horrifying, indescribable, unthinkable.”

The murder of Ruby Rose Barrameda-Jimenez, whose body was stuffed and cemented into a steel container and then thrown into the murky waters off Navotas, was so chilling even a seasoned police investigator found it hard to describe what happened.

“The crime was really horrifying. It’s indescribable and unthinkable,” said Chief Supt. Roberto Rosales, head of the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO).

In his 32 years in the military and police service, Rosales said the killing of Ruby Rose was probably one of the worst he had seen.

He had heard of this method of killing during the dark period of the Marcos dictatorship, he said but this was the first time a woman was made to suffer such an unspeakable death.

Ruby Rose, sister of actress and former beauty queen, Rochelle Barrameda, disappeared on March 14, 2007, after a bitter custody dispute with her estranged husband, Manuel Jimenez III, for their two children.

Police on Thursday filed murder charges against seven men including some of Ruby Rose’s in-laws and alleged accomplices.

“That crime was done to the nth degree. How can somebody kill a woman who cannot even defend herself against five men? If they want to kill Ruby Rose, they could have just taken her, shot her and buried the body elsewhere,” Rosales said.

Feared, not respected

“The way they killed her was really beyond imagination. I cannot understand what moved the suspects to do this to her,” he said. “Whoever committed this crime must pay for it. The people could never forgive this horrendous act.”

Rosales said he was told that Ruby Rose’s father-in-law, Manuel Jimenez II, and uncle-in-law, Lope Jimenez, who had been charged for the grisly murder, were dreaded by people who knew them.

Even residents of the coastal towns of Cavite, where carrying firearms was common, did not dare cross paths with the Jimenezes, he said.

“They are feared, not respected, in Cavite,” Rosales, a seasoned police investigator, said.

Crime of passion. Maybe the husband and the family which I'm sure they were suspect think it's less expensive alternative than annulment I am not using divorce because there is no divorce in Philippines.
