What is Murder Conviction: Treachery in People v. Wilson Lab-eo about?

The Supreme Court affirmed the conviction of Wilson Lab-eo for murder. The lower court correctly found that treachery was present, as the victim was stabbed from behind without warning or chance to defend herself. The court also rejected the claim of mitigating circumstances, as the evidence showed it was the appellant who initially provoked the victim. While treachery qualified the killing as murder, the penalty was reduced to reclusion perpetua due to the mitigating circumstance of voluntary surrender.
