Case Summary
The Supreme Court affirmed the conviction of Freddie Sernadilla for one count of rape and acquitted him of two counts of child abuse under Republic Act No. 7610. The rape conviction stemmed from Sernadilla's sexual intercourse with a 14-year-old girl, AAA, who was a member of his church. The Court found that Sernadilla employed intimidation due to his moral ascendancy over AAA.
