The Julia Campbell murder case which was a national sensation in 2007 has finally come to a close.
From the ABS-CBN Article:
Juan Duntugan, the suspect in the murder of US Peace Corps volunteer Julia Campbell last year, was sentenced to life imprisonment Monday after being found guilty of murdering the American.
Life in prison with no chance for parole and millions of pesos in damages. Who knows if the money will ever come considering the murderer's family is rather poor. Regardless of the outcome, it is good to have some closure on something as horrible as this. Julia's family has received an incredible amount of support from Peace Corps, the Filipino Government, the US Embassy and many of Julia's friends and fans across the US.
Thank you all for your caring and support to her family, to myself and to any Peace Corps volunteer you may have worried about over this last year.
