Feminicide sentencing in Brazil

Overview

Recent judicial proceedings in Brazil have resulted in significant prison sentences for individuals convicted of feminicide.

In Campo Grande, Matheus Henrique de Oliveira Domingos was sentenced to 17 years in a closed prison for the murder of Kamylla Scarllet Fernandes Cristaldo. The shooting occurred in September 2024, motivated by what prosecutors described as “ego and jealousy.” Although the defendant denied involvement, the victim identified him as the shooter while hospitalized.

In Patos de Minas, a 43-year-old man received a 75-year prison sentence for the November 2025 murder of his former partner. The jury cited aggravating factors, noting the crime was committed in the presence of the victim's children. The defendant was also ordered to pay R$ 100,000 in compensation to the children.
