Chilling text to Parañaque couple: ‘Find your daughter among the water lilies’

Text messages from three different numbers gave a Parañaque City couple this chilling clue: They can find their missing daughter “among the water lilies.”

After days of searching, the parents of Clarissa Pizarra, 7, did find her corpse floating in a creek on Monday.

Residents of Medina Land Property in Barangay (village) San Dionisio, Parañaque City, were the first to discover Pizarra’s already foul-smelling remains in what the locals call Balitahar creek, three weeks after the girl went missing.

Her father, Feliciano, later positively identified the body as that of her child based on the clothes she wore when last seen alive on February 20, police said Wednesday.

Based on the father’s statement to the police, Clarissa was abducted by a group of men and shoved into a van that day in front of a sari-sari (variety) store along Tramo I also in Barangay San Dionisio.

Three days later, Feliciano said, he began receiving text messages from three different mobile phone numbers, all saying that he could find his child in the creek, among the water lilies.

The search went on—until the text messages proved correct on Monday.

The Parañaque City police have yet to come up with suspects as of Wednesday.
