Cogently, Mallilin v. People is reiterated in Catuiran v. People,[38] People v. Garcia,[39] and People v. Villanueva,[40] among others.

True, the trial court's assessment of the credibility of witnesses and their testimonies, as a rule, is entitled to great weight and will not be disturbed on appeal. This rule, however, does not apply where it is shown that any fact of weight and substance has been overlooked, misapprehended or misapplied by the trial court.[16] The case at bar falls under the above exception and, hence, a deviation from the general rule is justified.
