Tarlac City – – Shabu made him crazy.
This was the remark of a neighbor when a man was arrested for allegedly raping his 3 daughters aged 4, 9, and 17.
Arrested for incest was Ronnie Macalino Galang, 36, who is said to be addicted to shabu.
Galang’s “evil act” was discovered when his in-laws found the severely swollen private part of 4-year old “Michelle.”
During the investigation, his eldest daughter, “Maria”, revealed she has also been repeatedly raped by her father for the past 5 years.
His 9-year-old daughter “Marimar” also said she was sexually molested by Galang.
As this developed, residents of Barangay Buenavista disclosed that Galang is also suspected of robbing their neighbors.
“Si Galang ay suspect sa mga nakawan dito sa amin. Masyado ng lulong sa droga ang tao ‘yan kaya wala na nasira na ang ulo,” said Galang’s neighbor who requested his name withheld for fear of reprisal.
“Ang pinaka-problema namin ay ang pagdeklara na ‘drug-free’ na raw ang aming barangay. Sa totoo lang napakarami pa ring addict at mga pusher dito sa amin kaya marami pa rin ang nakawan,”, also said Galang’s neighbor.
Three counts of incestuous rape in relation to RA 7610 were filed against Galang.
“Michelle” and her 2 siblings were accompanied by their mother and maternal aunts when they reported to the police investigators.
Galang is now detained at this city’s Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) and is not allowed to post bail.
