Former actress Gretchen Barreto is apparently leading a quiet life after being excluded by authorities in the missing sabungeros case. Recently, Barretto was seen by some members of the entertainment media having lunch at a hotel. She sparingly said, “Peaceful, quiet life," before eventually leaving the venue. In July 2025, whistleblower Dondon Patidongan tagged businessman Atong Ang and Barretto as among the persons allegedly behind the abductions of missing sabungeros. He accused them, as well as Eric Dela Rosa and Celso Salazar, of being the masterminds in the case of not just 34 but over 100 missing sabungeros.
