«I don’t want my sister to become a statistic. I want justice done.” Wallace Santos de Oliveira follows, in detail, each hearing of the jury trial to clarify the crime of his sister that began last Monday and is going through the third day.
The Brazilian Eduarda Santos was assassinated on February 16 of last year in Circuito Chico. In one of the first indictment hearings, Alves Ferreira, who Asking to be identified as Amanda, she pleaded guilty to the crime.
What do we expect as a family? Life imprisonment for being a femicide. I am very afraid and anxious, but I hope that justice will be done. That’s why I’m here,” Wallace said that he works as a psychologist in the Brazilian Public Ministry and traveled especially to Bariloche to participate in the trial. He was the first witness among some 50 to testify. This Friday at the last minute the sentence will be known.
The man obtained custody of Eduarda’s youngest daughter; Her mother is in charge of three other children while two other children are under the care of Gabriela Ramírez, Marcelo’s sister, Alves Ferreira’s partner, who died in August 2021.
«I have known Fernando for six years. And I know him as Fernando. I am a psychologist and the right of people who want to change their gender is important, but in this case it is regarding the thesis of the defense of a person who is accused of murder. Everyone knows Fernando as Fernando and the defense is doing nothing but his job,” he said.
He stressed that his sister and Alves Ferreira were friends since they lived in Brazil. Both decided to settle in Bariloche in search of a better future.
When Alves Ferreira partnered with Marcelo Ramírez, they offered Eduarda an economic agreement: they would help him continue his university studies in exchange for having his children. “Studying was impossible in Brazil due to the high cost. So surrogacy became an option,” Wallace said.
With the agreement in place, the couple and Eduarda chose to live together in the same house at kilometer 25 in order to facilitate administrative procedures and care during pregnancy.
Eduarda’s family never suspected that there was a problem between the two until the young woman confided in her brother that she had found the word ‘death’ written on the steamed-up bathroom mirror when he finished bathing. The door was open.
«That situation began to attract my attention. My sister recognized that there was a conflict between them, that Fernando was distant and aggressive, despite the fact that they always had a good relationship. We don’t know when the link changed. And if Fernando was up to something, we didn’t know either. I only hoped that he would tell me everything when he returned to Brazil. Something that never happened,” Wallace said.
–In one of the judicial hearings, Alves Ferreira assured that “it was his life or Eduarda’s”: what kind of conflicts were there between the two?«- asked this newspaper.
-The issue is that a murderer begins to say many things. Alves Ferreira confessed that he murdered my sister, then he said no. He said that he did not want to return to Brazil because he was afraid, as if to imply that my sister was threatening him. It’s classic. He begins to say, say, say »-he replied.
-But if the bond between them was good, what changed?- she insisted.
-I don’t know. It’s the question I ask myself all the time. But here is a murder and a friend does not kill a friend. I hope justice for Eduarda, a kind woman. amazing and dreamy-concluded.
