For nearly three years, Elboy Pio says his suffering has been “unbearable.”

Pio, the brother of Elvie Sig-Od — a 44-year-old woman who was stabbed to death by her ex-husband in 2022 — told a downtown Toronto courtroom Monday through a victim impact statement that Godfrey Sig-Od’s actions ensured their world “changed forever.”

It was “an act of unimaginable violence, and that loss is something we will carry for the rest of our lives,” said assistant Crown attorney Rochelle Liberman, speaking on behalf of Pio, who lives in the Philippines.

“Fear and anxiety have become daily battles. We no longer feel safe in a world where something so cruel could happen to someone we love.”

Sig-Od, 48, was found guilty last month for the first-degree murder of Elvie and the second-degree murder of his daughter, Angelica. He was in court Monday for a sentencing hearing where victim impact statements and sentencing submissions were delivered.
