During his trial in São Paulo, businessman Fernando Sastre de Andrade Filho admitted to consuming alcohol before driving the Porsche 911 involved in a fatal March 2024 accident. The high speed collision on Avenida Salim Farah Maluf resulted in the death of app driver Ornaldo da Silva Viana and serious injuries to a passenger. While Sastre expressed regret, his defense presented a technical report alleging vehicle malfunctions. Testimony also addressed allegations that police officers failed to follow proper procedures at the scene. On October 30, 2026, a jury at the Barra Funda Criminal Forum sentenced Sastre to 17 years, 1 month, and 10 days in prison, beginning in a closed regime. The sentence includes 14 years and 8 months for intentional homicide with eventual intent, which the jury determined meant he assumed the risk of causing death, and over 2 years for causing serious bodily injury to passenger Marcus Vinicius Machado Rocha. Forensic reports indicated the Porsche was traveling at approximately 156 km/h in a 50 km/h zone. The court also ordered Sastre to be disqualified from driving and to pay legal costs. The defense has filed an appeal, stating they respect the decision but disagree with the outcome. Following the verdict, the victim’s son, Lucas Silva, stated that the decision represents justice for his family.
