Legal proceedings regarding homicide cases in Santarém, Pará, have reached significant milestones. 

In one case, a judge ordered a jury trial for Sandro Corrê de Carvalho regarding the 2020 killing of artist Manoel Apolinário Oliveira de Sousa. The charge of qualified homicide was accepted following a dispute during a political celebration. Carvalho, who had been a fugitive for several years, was arrested in early 2025.

In a separate matter, a jury in Santarém sentenced Adriana de Farias Gomes to 21 years in prison for the 2018 murder of Caio Willian Ferreira Coelho. The conviction involved qualified homicide using a method that prevented the victim from defending himself. While Gomes was sentenced, her co-defendant, Edinei Farias Gomes, was acquitted.
