	GR No. 208170 2014-08-20	PEOPLE v. PETRUS YAU MENDOZA, J.
In every criminal case, the task of the prosecution is always two-fold, that is, (1) to prove beyond reasonable doubt the commission of the crime charged; and (2) to establish with the same quantum of proof the identity of the person or persons responsible therefor, because, even if the commission of the crime is a given, there can be no conviction without the identity of the malefactor being likewise clearly ascertained.[18] Here, the prosecution was able to satisfactorily discharge this burden.
