Baterbonia’s mother to Baldwin: Apology won’t bring my son back

MANILA, Philippines — Rovelyn Baterbonia, mother of the late Rene Baterbonia, expressed frustration after watching Ateneo head coach Tab Baldwin’s public apology on Friday night. Baldwin broke his silence for the first time since the incident, conveying deep remorse over the deaths of Rene, 19, and Divine Adili, 21, during a team-building activity in Dipaculao, Aurora. For Rene’s mother, however, words of apology fall short, as she continues to seek clarity and accountability.
