Filipina Bartender Admits to Murdering 3-Year Old Son of USFK Servicemember
|The Stars & Stripes has an update on the case of the Filipina bartender who murdered a 3-year old son of a USFK service member left in her care:
Jamaica Eblacas, 30, a Pyeongtaek bartender who admitted killing a U.S. soldier’s 3-year-old son, is refusing a court-ordered psychiatric evaluation or to cooperate with her defense attorney, the attorney told Stars and Stripes on Wednesday.
“We’re frustrated,” attorney Jung Wang Jae told Stars and Stripes in an interview Thursday. “We feel a bit bad for our client. This is a big case, and she has a baby as well.”
At her arraignment Nov. 5, Eblacas admitted killing Noa Calhoun, the son of Army Pvt. James and Kourtney Calhoun, after his father left the child and his 7-year-old brother in her care two months earlier.
James Calhoun is assigned to the 61st Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Company at Camp Humphreys.

You can read more at the link, but in court she admitted to stabbing and beating the young boy. Other news is that she got into an unrelated fight with an elderly Korean man before this incident and her ex-husband who is Korean says she is not mentally well. No word on what the U.S. Soldier was doing leaving his kids in the care of a juicy girl that night though we can speculate.
Very tragic for the sibling of the murdered child. The adults in the case probably need corporal punishment. But worse than Singapore treats gum-chewers…
