Indignity to Human Remains: The Gruesome Murder of Maria Cecilia Loreto (2021)

Episode • Nov 22, 2024 • 12m

A 49-year-old Filipina’s death in Burnaby, Canada sent shockwaves among the Filipinos in her community as she was killed by two young men aged 21 years old and 15 years old.

Her burned remains would be discovered in Greentree Village Park, near a children’s playground.

Her family, friends, and the rest of her community have been in mourning since her violent death.

“She did not deserve her fate,” said her longtime friend. Maria Cecilia Loreto, who often went by Mycel, was among the many hardworking Filipinos abroad, striving to attain a better life. Through her best efforts, she was able to bring her family to Canada.

However, she would not be able to spend any more time with them as her life was gruesomely taken away by two men. It was believed that the victim and suspects knew each other, and that the incident was planned.

Maria Cecilia Loreto was better known as Maricel or Mycel, a combination of her names Maria and Cecilia, to her friends and family. She arrived in Vancouver, Canada in 2011, and has since been working multiple jobs; one including at a Superstore.
