	GR NO. 171272 2007-06-07	PEOPLE v. LEOSON DELA CRUZ Y ECHECHE QUISUMBING, J.
We find Pelagio's testimony to the minutest detail and his categorical identification of appellant as the assailant credible, unwavering and consistent. Both the trial and appellate courts agree on the facts surrounding the attack on the victims. Positive identification made with moral certainty suffices to convict the accused.[42] Further, the testimony concerning the death of Juliana and the near death of Pelagio acquires greater weight since it is amply supported by the testimonies and medical findings of Dr. Castro[43] and Dr. Minay,[44] who examined the victims.[45]
	GR NO. 160858 2006-02-28	ROLITO RABANAL v. PEOPLE TINGA, J.
It is a well-established principle that when the identification is doubtful, inconclusive, or unreliable, an acquittal is called for. The doubtful identification of petitioner herein, when taken with the absence of any other evidence showing his guilt, justifies his acquittal.[26]
	GR NO. 148862 2005-08-11	RUBIN TAD-Y Y BABOR v. PEOPLE CALLEJO, SR., J.
The prosecution is mandated to prove, beyond reasonable doubt, the essential elements of the felony and that the petitioner is the perpetrator thereof.[76]
