Three men – Norman de Leon, 25; his brother Joshua, 19; and Romulo Marquez, 34, all of 1676 A. Zamora street – were invited for questioning after neighbors told investigators the men were seen having a drinking session at the time the crime was committed.
The three initially denied any knowledge of the crime, but Norman broke down during interrogation at around 2 p.m. yesterday and admitted to killing the child. He would not say, however, if he raped Rosales.
“I could not remember if I raped her but I know I stabbed her several times,” he said.
Norman said he attacked the girl between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. in a second-floor room rented by his partner, a man identified only as Tonette dela Rama.
Rosales’ parents said they last seen their daughter at around 7 p.m. and started looking for her two hours later, when she failed to come home.
