Based on a report from Manila Bulletin, Central Visayas’ Chief Medico-Legal officer of the Philippine National Police (PNP) Crime Laboratory, Dr. Benjamin Lara released a statement after the autopsy.

“Other than her face was skinned, we noted in our examination that her trachea and the esophagus were missing. The musculature at the right side of the neck was also ripped off so the cervical vertebrae can already be seen. Aside from that, her tongue is also gone,” said Lara.

Dr. Benjamin Lara said the wrongdoers might not be responsible for the missing organs of the victim because she was left lifeless in an open area.

“There were animals there and there is a possibility that the missing organs may have been eaten by animals.”

They also concluded that Christine Lee Silawan was not raped.

“I have no more tears left to cry. I feel so weak. I don’t know if I can recover from this”

“She was a very good daughter. I couldn’t understand why someone had to do something barbaric to her. She was very kind, a silent type. She was my buddy, she was very obedient. She would do everything I tell her to do without complaining,” she added.
