Renato was charged with Murder before the Regional Trial Court for the killing of his business partner, Eduardo. The prosecution presented the following evidence: (1) testimony of witness Janet, who testified that she saw Renato and Eduardo arguing violently two days before Eduardo disappeared; (2) testimony of Police Officer Santos, who stated that neighbors reported seeing Renato's car near Eduardo's house on the night Eduardo was last seen alive; and (3) text messages recovered from Eduardo's phone showing threats allegedly from Renato. After the prosecution rested its case, Renato filed a Demurrer to Evidence arguing that: (a) the prosecution failed to establish corpus delicti because no body was found and no death certificate was presented; and (b) even assuming Eduardo is dead, there is no evidence directly linking Renato to the killing as no weapon was recovered and no eyewitness saw the actual killing. If you were the judge, would you grant the demurrer? Explain. (Bar 2026 Syllabus)
