In Santos, sergeant Samir do Nascimento Rodrigues de Carvalho has entered the jury trial phase for the murder of his wife, Amanda Fernandes Carvalho, and the shooting of his 10-year-old daughter. The incident occurred in May 2024 at a medical clinic. Prosecutors allege that Carvalho shot both women and subsequently stabbed Amanda 51 times. While the daughter survived following surgery, Amanda died at the scene. The trial at the Santos Forum involves the interrogation of the defendant and testimony from 13 witnesses. The Public Ministry is seeking convictions for femicide, citing aggravating factors including domestic violence and the use of resources that prevented the victim from defending herself. In other jurisdictions, proceedings are advancing for Lieutenant Colonel Geraldo Leite Rosa Neto, who is accused of the femicide of his wife, Soldier Gisele Alves Santana. The court has ordered final arguments following witness testimonies to determine if the case will proceed to a jury trial. Additionally, Welbert de Souza Fagundes is scheduled for trial in November regarding the triple-qualified homicide of Military Police Sergeant Roger Dias da Cunha. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-14: Legal proceedings advance in two high-profile criminal cases Legal proceedings advance in two cases: a trial is set for a man accused of killing a Brazilian police sergeant, and a colonel faces a potential jury trial for the death of his wife. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/legal-proceedings-advance-in-two-high-profile-criminal-cases ### 2026-10-14: Military Police sergeant faces trial for killing wife and shooting daughter in Santos A Military Police sergeant faces a jury trial in Santos, Brazil, accused of killing his wife and shooting his daughter during a violent attack at a medical clinic. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/military-police-sergeant-faces-trial-for-fatal-attack-on-wife-and-daughter-in-santos --- Cite as: Legal proceedings for Brazilian military police officers.
