00:00It was stolen, and it was stolen again.
00:03This is what happened to a man who stole soft drinks bottles in Cebu City.
00:09You can see in the video that the man one by one
00:11put the bottles in the cart and left.
00:15The man was caught sleeping with the authorities of the owner of the store.
00:19When the man went to the barangay to investigate,
00:23he left his cart on the side of the road.
00:26But when he came back, the stolen bottles were gone.
00:30It was stolen by another man.
00:33The man who stole the bottles was also looking for it.
00:36What does the law say about this?
00:38Well, ask me, ask Attorney Gabby.
00:44Attorney, it seems like karma is real when this happened,
00:46but what's really pitiful is the victim who was stolen.
00:50Who is responsible for this?
00:54Actually, the first thief is already liable for the theft.
00:58This is the crime of theft under Article 308 of the Revised Penal Code.
01:03The minute he took and transported the bottles,
01:07we can say that the crime is already consummated.
01:11The so-called taking is already complete.
01:14The owner of the item is also gone.
01:17The first thief is really the reason why the real owner is gone.
01:22So, the first thief is liable criminally and civilly.
01:26He is guilty of the crime of theft and he can be jailed for this.
01:31He also needs to pay his civil liability,
01:34which means he will pay the value of the stolen bottles.
01:38It is not a defense for the first thief that he does not need to pay the value of the bottles
01:43because he did not benefit from this.
01:46But that is not the point.
01:48The point is that the victim needs to be reimbursed for his loss.
01:52The second thief, does he not have a punishment?
01:55Of course, he is also liable for the theft.
01:58He is charged with taking something that is not his.
02:03So, he can also be charged with theft.
02:05But what we also know is that the victim cannot be paid double for the two thieves.
02:12That is an unjust enrichment.
02:14Once he is reimbursed for his loss,
02:19the civil liability that he should be reimbursed for is over.
02:23Double compensation for the victim is prohibited.
02:30Attorney, is it possible that the case of theft is heavier
02:34if the stolen item also came from the theft?
02:37Well, the case does not get heavier like what we said earlier.
02:41The case is still the same.
02:43It is still a theft for both of them.
02:45And the penalty is just the same for both of them.
02:48It does not get heavier.
02:49Unless the second thief also sells the stolen goods,
02:53there will be a possible case of violation of anti-fencing law under PD 1612.
03:00Under this law, it is prohibited to buy, sell, or deal in stolen goods
03:06in a possible additional case.
03:12We will clarify the law for the peace of mind.
03:17Don't think twice.
03:19Ask me, Curly Haired Attorney Gaby.
