In this episode, I delve into the heartbreaking stories of three young women whose lives were cut short by senseless violence.
First, I explore the case of Mitzi Joy Balunsay, a young and promising college student in the Philippines who was murdered in 2017 under harrowing circumstances that continue to haunt her community. I also examine the 2023 murder of Queen Leanne Daguinsin, another vibrant young student whose brutal death revealed unsettling truths about campus safety. Lastly, I recount the case of Jastine Valdez, a Filipina in Ireland whose life was stolen in an abduction that shook two nations and highlighted the need for systemic changes in protecting women.
Through these stories, I examine the failures and biases in community and institutional responses, and I question how society can better protect young women from such tragic fates.
