murdered by would-be brothers



The fate of UP senior Cris Anthony Mendez was unfortunate. By joining Sigma Rho Fraternity, he had high hopes that the fraternity would be able to help him in building a bright future for himself and his poor family. Never did he realize that the very people who promised him the moon and the stars would be the same people who will put an end to his dreams, forever. I emphatize with Cris' family. He could have been the one who would be able to uplift his family from its present condition. He could have been a a great leader and public servant. But now, he has left. What is going to happen to his promises?

It is also surprising that Sigma Rho seems to be getting away with it. The suspected iniatitors are into hiding. Why would they hide if in the first place, they have nothing to do with Cris's death? There are no other suspects but the said fraternity. All evidence point to it as perpetrator of the untimely death of Cris. They don't even have the courage to face the authorities. I hope that justice would be served upon my namesake.

Rest in peace, Cris.
