| Once more, other than Burce's bare allegations, there is no evidence that his minor daughter, AAA, could be so induced by malice and materialism as to concoct a rape charge against her own father, that would destroy her own and her father's honor, as well as tear her family apart, all for P10,000.00. We have held that no young girl would concoct a sordid tale of so serious a crime as rape at the hands of her own father, undergo medical examination, then subject herself to the stigma and embarrassment of a public trial, if her motive were other than a fervent desire to seek justice.[30] Being young and guileless, AAA had no ill motive to falsely testify and impute such a serious crime against her own father.[31] | |||||

| We have also repeatedly held that "no young girl would concoct a sordid tale of so serious a crime as rape at the hands of her own father, undergo medical examination, then subject herself to the stigma and embarrassment of a public trial, if her motive [was] other than a fervent desire to seek justice."[34] | |||||

DEL CASTILLO, J. |

| "AAA" cried while recounting her awful experience at the hands of her own father so that the court had to order a brief recess for her to regain her composure.[22] Such display of emotion is a clear indication regarding the truth of the rape charges.[23] As has been repeatedly held, "no young girl would concoct a sordid tale of so serious a crime as rape at the hands of her own father, undergo medical examination, then subject herself to the stigma and embarrassment of a public trial, if her motive [was] other than a fervent desire to seek justice."[24] | |||||
