Incidents


On February 8, 2011, Loyola Memorial Park was the site of the suicide of retired military general and politician Angelo Reyes, who served as Armed Forces of the Philippines Chief of Staff and later as secretary of National Defense, DILG, DENR, and Department of Energy. Fronting his parents' graves, Reyes shot himself with a .45 caliber pistol and slumped on his mother's marker; he was rushed to Quirino Memorial Medical Center and was declared dead on arrival. The incident happened in the midst of corruption investigations against Reyes on account of the "monetary gift scheme" (known in the Filipino language as "pabaon") in the Armed Forces wherein he received a cash gift, known as send-off money, amounting to PHP50 million, which was said to have been acquired through malpractices. A groundskeeper employed by the cemetery was on a morning shift that day, working as a gardener when he witnessed the incident; he later testified that he overheard Reyes' last words, "I'm Sorry", before the gunfire.
