PEOPLE v. JAIME MEDINA Y BANAG

This case has been cited 2 times or more.

2004-06-09
SANDOVAL-GUTIERREZ, J.
In People vs. Medina,[10] we held: "It is elementary that when there is a conspiracy, the act of one is the act of all the conspirators, and a conspirator may be held as a principal even if he did not participate in the actual commission of every act constituting the offense. In conspiracy, all those who in one way or another helped and cooperated in the consummation of the crime are considered co-principals since the degree or character of the individual participation of each conspirator in the commission of the crime becomes immaterial." Clearly, it is of no moment that appellant did not possess the seized shabu, or that he did not personally deliver it to PO3 Saradi and receive the monetary consideration therefor. It bears stressing that liability exists notwithstanding appellant's non-participation in every detail in the execution of the crime.[11]
