Question 12
12. Timoteo recently lost his job as a security guard at Kabayan Corporation. He
blamed his termination on his former co-worker, Tales, because the latter was
allegedly badmouthing him at their workplace. One day, Timoteo went back to
the company premises to retrieve his things. When he saw Tales, a heated
exchange ensued between the two. Timoteo then pulled out his gun and shot Tales
in the neck. When the latter dropped to the ground, Timoteo approached him,
kneeled on top of him, and shot him in the head, instantly killing Tales. Timoteo
tried to escape but his other former co-workers caught him. Timoteo was then
charged with Murder, with treachery as a qualifying circumstance. Is Timoteo
guilty of Murder? Explain.
