    Pugay and Samson were charged with murder after Pugay poured gasoline on Miranda and Samson set him on fire at a town fiesta. While the prosecution argued they acted with treachery and evident premeditation, the court found no evidence of planning to kill Miranda. Pugay was found guilty of homicide through reckless imprudence for failing to recognize the danger of gasoline, while Samson was found guilty of homicide with ordinary mitigating circumstances for intending only to light Miranda's clothes on fire.
