Prior to the incident, the two had a drinking spree with other buddies when Rosario allegedly took a knife and stabbed Rosario.
On Dec. 24, Felix Aquino, 48, a baker, and Arnold Villegas, 38, farmer succumbed to stab wounds after they were stabbed allegedly by their cousin, Jessie Aquino alias Ising, 36, security guard, all residents of Barangay Paitan-Panoypoy, San Carlos City.
Jessie Aquino reportedly went home around 8:15 p.m. of Dec. 24, drank and had a heated argument with his wife, Melanie.
