00:28THE CITY IN BRAZIL
00:33In order for you to also have a well-managed family relationship, respect and dialogue are fundamental.
00:44But love, which is the greatest feeling, is what made you decide to come here today.
00:51and to enter into a marriage,
00:53It is fundamental, it is the pillar, it is the basis of family life, it is the foundation of your relationship.
01:04Every week, a mass wedding takes place at the Planaltina Forum, a satellite city of Brasília, in the Federal District.
01:11The ceremony brings together dozens of couples who have no idea that one of the most notorious crimes of passion was tried in that same courthouse.
01:19well-known and cruel figures in Brazil.
01:22A beautiful love story that ended in tragedy.
01:53THE CITY IN BRAZIL
02:12In 1965, Ana Elizabeth Lofrano and José Carlos Alves dos Santos met at the University of Brasília, where they were studying.
02:21A few years later, they got married and had three children, Adriana, Eduardo, and the youngest, Rodrigo.
02:27Together for over 20 years, they were a beautiful couple and a seemingly happy family.
02:34She worked at the Ministry of Education and he rose rapidly as a civil servant.
02:40Becoming the Director-General of the Union Budget, a position of great prestige and power.
02:45But despite appearances, something was amiss in the couple's life.
02:51That was a special occasion for Ana Elizabeth Lofrano.
02:55Despite the crisis in their marriage, José Carlos invited her to a romantic dinner.
03:00She put a lot of effort into her appearance for what she believed would be the couple's reconciliation.
03:05The restaurant they chose was one of the best in Brasília, where they lived.
03:11It was a moment for just the two of them.
03:12Because they hadn't had one for many years.
03:15The night seemed perfect.
03:19After dinner, on his way home, José Carlos was alerted by the driver of another vehicle.
03:25that one of his car's tires was flat.
03:28He pulled over to the side of the road.
03:30Without them noticing, the driver of the other vehicle also stopped and approached.
03:35It was a robbery.
03:36José Carlos was assaulted, tied up, and placed in the trunk of his own car.
03:42Confined to his home, he realized that someone had taken the steering wheel from his car.
03:46José Carlos realized that the driver had left the highway and continued down a potholed road.
03:51After a while, the car stopped and silence fell.
03:55José Carlos had been abandoned by the robbers.
03:59He managed to escape confinement and found the key in the ignition.
04:04Concerned about Ana Elizabeth, he returned home and called the police.
04:11The first piece of information José Carlos himself provided in the police report was that he had been robbed.
04:20A story full of contradictions.
04:24Right from the start, police officers from the homicide division were assigned to assist with the kidnapping investigation.
04:35Early in the morning, the entire kidnapping suppression team was called in, and we went there early to...
04:43there, to his residence.
04:45Upon arriving there, we came to terms with the whole situation.
04:48In one case, the wife had been kidnapped; in all the cases we've dealt with, the family was desperate.
04:58Everyone is like that, sometimes not even knowing what to do.
05:01And he, calm, cold, talking to his children as if, no, no, mommy will be back, relaxed.
05:09He knows?
05:10I found that very strange.
05:11This is not normal.
05:17The case begins with a robbery, a kidnapping, a robbery followed by a kidnapping, right?
05:22And when you go to investigate the facts, you realize that the alleged victim, in this case,
05:30She was married to a very important official in the National Congress.
05:34Policarpo Júnior was responsible for one of the biggest journalistic scoops in Brazilian politics.
05:40This is no longer a simple case of kidnapping and robbery.
05:43It begins to attract the attention of the press.
05:46You start digging a little deeper, investigating a little more the circumstances in which these events occurred.
05:54You start to look into that person's profile because they are an important person.
06:01Everything was investigated.
06:02We investigated his situation at work, right?
06:06Including the dictionary.
06:08The wife's situation at her workplace was investigated.
06:12To see if, every time this happens, we need to know if there are enemy problems, right?
06:17From people who had some kind of problem before, right?
06:21Sometimes there is a threat.
06:22So, all of this needs to be investigated.
06:29This guy was a happily married consultant.
06:33The woman worked at the Ministry of Education; her name was Ana Elisabeth Lofrano dos Santos.
06:37Marcos Linhares is a journalist and wrote the biography of one of the detectives responsible for investigating the case.
06:44His daughter, Adriana, is a very successful dentist.
06:48So, this guy had a very well-organized life.
06:52So, he worked at the National Congress and, at night, taught classes in the Economics Department of a college here in...
06:57Brasilia.
06:58Today, everyone is getting their passports filled, everyone is getting visas.
07:02In the past, it was very difficult to go to Europe.
07:04And they made that trip to Europe, to the Vatican, which is what she wanted.
07:09And back then, people didn't have that kind of money to take those kinds of trips.
07:13We weren't winning.
07:15Today, people are leaving, everyone is leaving.
07:17Zacarias Mustapha Neto, a prosecutor with the Federal Public Ministry, was responsible for the accusation against José Carlos.
07:23Home renovations, buying land, lots of traveling.
07:28He also bought a car, at the time, pickup trucks, restaurants, good restaurants,
07:35That a public employee didn't have the resources, and even today, still doesn't have as many, but they didn't have the resources before.
07:40And she also holds the position of teacher.
07:44José Carlos Alves dos Santos and his wife, Ana Elisabeth Lofrano,
07:48They lived a comfortable life with many luxuries.
07:51Economist and director of the General Budget of the Union,
07:54Millions that would be distributed among the Brazilian states passed through his hands.
08:00He understood the complex accounting of the entire country's budget like no one else.
08:05José Carlos held a position of great prestige and power.
08:14We did the whole reconstruction.
08:16He said that from there he went to the restaurant, talked about what he ate, and mentioned Lago Norte.
08:21He was investigated, yes, he was at the restaurant, that's fine.
08:25And then, under the bridge called Ponte do Bragueto, which provides access to Lago Norte,
08:31He had a flat tire and stopped the car there.
08:35It was at that moment that the famous mechanic approached, right?
08:47At no point did the homicide division, which was handling the kidnapping case, believe it.
08:57Of course, there were police officers who believed it so much that they investigated the kidnapping.
09:05But the homicide detectives, who had been following the case from the beginning, didn't believe it was a kidnapping.
09:13One day, while they're at the police station, Zé Carlos receives a call from President Itamar Franco.
09:20who was the president of the republic at the time, giving support, friend.
09:24Look, we're going to find your wife.
09:26He was a victim.
09:28And then, no, and pass the phone to the police chief.
09:30Then the police chief, Laerte Bessa, speaks to him, saying, "Look, please take a close look at this case, okay?"
09:36This is an important case.
09:37We need to find Zé Carlos's wife.
09:43When we began the investigation, we did a reconstruction.
09:49And it's our practice to mark kilometer zero at the starting point.
09:54And I asked him, you know, if he knew, because he said, no, I filled up the car and by chance,
10:02Not me, by any chance.
10:03And as I always do, I reset the vehicle's odometer.
10:07That was the cue.
10:08When he spoke, I reset the vehicle's odometer; we reset it from there.
10:13And we began the entire reconstruction of the kidnapping crime, just as he had described it, right?
10:19And at the end of all this, of the reconstruction, there was a difference in mileage of 64 kilometers.
10:28And then, within a radius of 32 kilometers, the car went and came back without him having said what happened.
10:36What events occurred?
10:39You take his car, there are handprints, and the car itself, there's a sign that the marks have been cleaned off.
10:47from the hands, fingerprints were taken.
10:50Why is it that the guy, who went through all that, has a clean fingerprint only in that spot?
10:56The vehicle had a flat tire; we had been warned that the tire was punctured, and we sent someone to investigate, to see if...
11:06The tire was indeed flat.
11:07It wasn't punctured, it was deflated.
11:09These contradictions caused the police to be so suspicious of him that they decided to create a parallel investigation.
11:17Investigators grew increasingly suspicious of José Carlos's involvement in Ana Elizabeth's disappearance.
11:24He closely followed the investigation, even going so far as to hinder the work of the police.
11:30The interference was so great that the only way to ascertain the facts would be to mislead José Carlos in order to conduct a...
11:37parallel investigation.
11:38We started following him.
11:41We left the house, where he had several telephones installed, and where he already had a cell phone.
11:49At that time, very few people had cell phones, but he already did.
11:52He would leave the house and go make a call from a public phone booth.
11:55That is to say, the police investigated during normal hours, and during, let's say, extra hours,
12:01They met to strategize how to investigate the guy.
12:05This guy spent a year going on television crying and begging, "For God's sake, give me back my wife."
12:12We're asking the guys to get in touch soon, because we're willing to negotiate and try to resolve this.
12:17As quickly as possible.
12:18What we can't do is stay in this state of anguish, not having news for all this time, okay?
12:22So that's what we were asking for help with, that we bring contact information, that anyone who...
12:26have any news,
12:27Anyone who is useful for anything, who can provide any information, who can contact us to see if they can help.
12:31anything,
12:31Let everyone pray for us, please.
12:34According to the police, the story of Ana Elizabeth's kidnapping was very poorly told.
12:39But, in the eyes of the public, José Carlos was living through a great tragedy.
12:43He was a victim of dangerous criminals who had kidnapped his beloved wife.
12:47Hope never ends. The hope that her mother will return never ends.
13:16In 1992, a kidnapping caught Brazil's attention.
13:20José Carlos Alves dos Santos, a high-ranking official in the National Congress and one of those responsible for the country's budget,
13:27He told police that his wife, Ana Elizabeth Lofrano, had been kidnapped.
13:32Right from the start of the investigation, the police were suspicious of his version of events.
13:37Up until the moment it was a kidnapping, he was the one who oversaw everything.
13:41He, according to him, was receiving calls from the kidnapper, or the alleged kidnapper.
13:49That is, until he received a call from the kidnapper demanding the ransom amount.
13:59Suddenly, he arrives with a suitcase full of dollars and says, "Look, here it is. I want the best for my..."
14:04wife and such.
14:04The ransom demand was made, someone called, right?
14:08And then we went to check it out.
14:11And suddenly, when we were noting down the series of grades, several series were the same.
14:15I mean, that money there was double-counterfeit money. It started there.
14:21For the police, suspicion about José Carlos only grew.
14:26In the parallel investigation into his involvement in the kidnapping, a mysterious apartment was discovered.
14:32revealing an unknown side of José Carlos.
14:35Can you imagine a guy who had a social life, and so on, cultivating a hideout in Asa Norte?
14:45in which he shared this affair with his mistress,
14:49and that there they found all sorts of videos, vibrators, erotic costumes,
14:57Everything you can imagine in terms of pornography, they made that temple into a temple of sex.
15:01He already had these relationships outside of his marital relationship with Ana Elizabeth.
15:11It had been a long time.
15:13And he brought female students along, that's why he taught classes, right?
15:17Because that was how they approached younger girls, etc.
15:21And it was precisely at university that he met his lover, Cris Lene.
15:27Lawyer Cris Lene Lima de Oliveira was a former student of José Carlos.
15:31She was 23 years old when they started dating.
15:36Cris Lene was a former student of his, and yes, he was involved with her.
15:44Passion is a sexual desire, an uncontrollable attraction.
15:50And people go crazy with that kind of feeling.
15:53Luísa Nagy Belouf is a professor, public prosecutor, and author of a book that deals with the most brutal crimes of passion.
16:01Brazilians.
16:03It's important to understand that what we feel is completely natural.
16:07We are born with an instinct.
16:09And this instinct is difficult to tame.
16:15And then he gets himself into a lot of trouble, right?
16:18He hires a detective because he suspects his mistress is cheating on him.
16:23Because Cris Lene was pregnant and Zé Carlos wanted to know if the child was really his, Zé Carlos's.
16:33Joaquim Flávio was Zé Carlos's defense attorney, but he has mixed opinions on the case.
16:39She was investigated by Lindauro.
16:41Several accounts were given at the time by Lindauro, and Zé Carlos paid for them.
16:45Lindauro was paid to investigate Cris Lene, to follow Cris Lene.
16:50She was followed by him for a long time in order to discover her involvement with another man.
16:58Love, it always has to exist.
17:01For jealousy to exist, there has to be love.
17:03There is no jealousy without love.
17:06At least one previous love affair.
17:08With 35 years of experience and 10,000 psychiatric reports on criminals,
17:14Guido Palomba is one of the most respected forensic psychiatrists in the world.
17:19It's love, for example, it's jealousy over a car, it's jealousy over a crystal vase, it's jealousy over a...
17:26woman.
17:27So, if not... But why this jealousy?
17:30Because before, I like him, I have a... I get attached to him.
17:33So, initially, it's a feeling of love.
17:37Then it transforms into a feeling of possession.
17:40Then it transforms into a feeling of insecurity within oneself.
17:46From the discovery of the secret apartment, his sexual perversions, and the counterfeit dollars,
17:52Another facet of José Carlos's life was being revealed to the police.
17:57And that led investigators to conduct a search and seizure at his home.
18:02So, this search warrant was issued.
18:04Then a search warrant was issued for his house and apartment.
18:08More than one million dollars were found in his house.
18:14Then, this connection begins to take on the contours of a political scandal, money hidden under the mattress,
18:21kidnapping, the position the comrade held in Congress,
18:24This creates a mosaic, a story, that is very eye-catching and makes the journalist...
18:32Make a greater effort to investigate what is behind all of that.
18:36José Carlos's many extramarital affairs ended up worsening his relationship with his wife.
18:43Ana Elizabeth reportedly discovered her husband's mistress, Cris Lene.
18:47And the arguments between the couple became even more frequent.
18:50I believe he didn't believe in a separation.
18:53Because she liked him too much, and he knew it. She was crazy about him.
18:57He was in a situation of discord with Ana Elizabeth.
19:03Because he wanted to separate and she didn't want to separate.
19:06For investigators, the decisive fact that would have motivated José Carlos to plan the murder of Ana Elizabeth
19:13That was the ultimatum given by Cris Lene.
19:16She was no longer satisfied with being his mistress and wanted him to separate from his wife.
19:22Then he grabbed her and said, "For our information, I'm going to break up with her."
19:26I'm going to put an end to this so we can be together.
19:30The word "passion" is usually used in this context, in the context of love.
19:39which is the bothersome aspect, which is the aspect of depersonalization,
19:46which is the aspect of being stronger than me.
19:50When someone says that, it's the strongest reaction I can get.
19:51For you I'd do something crazy, for you I'd give up everything.
19:55Jorge Forbes holds a doctorate in psychoanalysis and has been studying violent incidents for several years.
20:00involving families and friends.
20:03The dating market values this highly.
20:06You need to be careful.
20:07Because it's also one step away from disaster.
20:15What was he thinking?
20:16I'm going to hire someone to kill my wife.
20:19Since he didn't know anyone, who did he know?
20:21The poor detective, the same one who had seen his mistress cheating on him.
20:28He calls the detective, who was a simple person, and says,
20:33I want you to kill my wife.
20:36The detective didn't understand anything.
20:39Wait a minute, but your mistress is being cheated on, do you want me to kill your wife?
20:43We found the name Lobo in his files.
20:47Different, a mechanic, Lobo who lived there in the western city, Valparaíso, around there, right?
20:55Then we talked about what a person who works in the Senate, who lives in Lago Norte,
20:58It has to do with that, it involves politicians, the budget committee,
21:02Nothing in the story adds up, it just doesn't.
21:06Then we went after this wolf, we went to investigate,
21:08And this group then began to frequent the vicinity of this Wolf's residence.
21:12It was one day when he talked too much in a bar, and that's when the guys caught him.
21:20Lobo was the nickname of Lindauro da Silva, a private detective.
21:24who had previously provided services to José Carlos.
21:27Because of the work he did, Lindauro was well known to the police.
21:32Lia was his ex-wife.
21:34Lindauro was not a killer, Lindauro was not a criminal.
21:37He had a minor incident, nothing serious, but he wasn't a criminal.
21:44He wasn't a gunman, which is the kind of guy you usually just go and hire.
21:48And he insisted so much, he had several meetings trying to convince this detective.
21:55Lindauro went to live in Sobradinho and started buying land, paying in dollars.
22:01He became known as a dollar man.
22:04which was the money that José Carlos had paid him.
22:10Some people who are unable to cope well with their own sexuality.
22:16and who have a very strong need to assert themselves in the relationship,
22:23at the moment they are abandoned by their object of passion or desire,
22:28to say the right word,
22:31They go haywire and become completely unbalanced psychologically.
22:38Just when investigators seemed to have found the motive for the crime,
22:42A political scandal of unprecedented proportions caused a twist in the case.
22:47And it shook Brazil.
23:14José Carlos Alves dos Santos, a high-ranking official in the National Congress,
23:18He told the police that his wife, Ana Elizabeth, had been kidnapped.
23:22He was there at the time, but he managed to escape.
23:26after being abandoned in the trunk of his own car.
23:29The police quickly became suspicious of the story and launched a parallel investigation.
23:33He discovered that some of the dollars José Carlos used to pay an alleged ransom were counterfeit.
23:40To complicate matters, the apartment he kept for his sexual encounters,
23:45He was discovered by the police for having multiple lovers.
23:58One fine day, he finds himself in the parking lot in Asa Sul,
24:03And he, this detective, says,
24:07I can already see that this guy isn't really going to give up.
24:10I've never seen a guy so interested in killing his wife.
24:13So, I'm going to make you an offer you can't refuse.
24:19Here's the deal, you give me 100,000 dollars and that's it.
24:22And he smiled, didn't he?
24:24The guy would never pay $100,000 to have his wife killed.
24:27Okay, now you're going to have to kill my wife.
24:29No, wait a minute, doctor.
24:30I spoke up because I thought that wouldn't be accepted.
24:35The people closest to her, in the week she was killed,
24:39He says his behavior has changed.
24:40It was all very well planned on his part,
24:43that he was dealing with, they had been fighting.
24:45Then, overnight, he started treating her well.
24:48He started to be affectionate.
24:50She told her colleagues at work.
24:52I'm going out to dinner with my husband.
24:54And she was going to that restaurant to make a reservation.
24:58Who knows, maybe a reconciliation, a return, a comeback.
25:02She prepared herself.
25:04She bought new underwear.
25:06She prepared herself with beautiful clothes,
25:07some high-heeled shoes,
25:09Good costume jewelry, but it was good costume jewelry.
25:12She produced everything for her husband.
25:15But what Ana Elizabeth believed to be a romantic dinner
25:18It was, in fact, a trap set by José Carlos.
25:21Witnesses claim to have seen
25:23when he put a substance in the woman's drink
25:26and that she had staggered out of the place.
25:29According to the prosecution,
25:30Lindaro and Valdei, his partner,
25:33José Carlos and Ana Elizabeth were waiting.
25:34at the restaurant exit
25:36and followed the couple along the highway.
25:39When the vehicles stopped on the shoulder,
25:41Ana Elizabeth, unconscious,
25:43She was tied up and gagged.
25:45wrapped in a sheet
25:46and placed in the trunk
25:48with the help of José Carlos.
25:51But the police only came up with this version of the story.
25:54and its disturbing ending
25:56through a complaint from Lia,
25:58Lindauro's ex-wife,
25:59also known as Wolf.
26:06It has changed a lot.
26:08It's been almost 20 years since it happened.
26:11This crime happened 19 years ago.
26:13So the vegetation itself has already changed a bit.
26:17The weather conditions,
26:19rainwater, erosion,
26:20The place has already changed somewhat in appearance.
26:23But the place he chose
26:25This was the way to bury the victim.
26:32They brought her,
26:33each holding one side,
26:36almost dragging her feet,
26:39until reaching the location
26:40where they had previously prepared
26:44at José Carlos's command.
26:46They had prepared that hole.
26:47They had already shown that hole.
26:49One week earlier for José Carlos.
26:51José Carlos gave the OK.
26:54They came with her and played here.
26:57It was much deeper.
26:59It was a much deeper hole.
27:01but due to rain,
27:03wind,
27:06sheets,
27:06It's filling up.
27:08But the hole was
27:10much deeper.
27:12When Lindauro decided
27:13to say that he had participated,
27:16that he had murdered
27:17Ana de Zabés,
27:18calling José Carlos,
27:19there at the homicide division,
27:22He arrived at the police station.
27:24and Dr. Julián spoke
27:26doctor,
27:26I'll show you.
27:27Where I buried the body.
27:28Near Planaltina,
27:30after traveling
27:31a few kilometers
27:32along a dirt road,
27:33The cars stopped.
27:35Ana Elizabeth,
27:36semiconscious,
27:37It was removed from the trunk.
27:39still wrapped in the sheet.
27:41Now for the next grave,
27:42prepared by the bandits,
27:44She fell to her knees.
27:45José Carlos delivered
27:46a Lindauro pickaxe
27:48who delivered the first blow
27:49on the victim's head.
27:51Seriously injured,
27:52She fainted.
27:53So, Lindauro and Valdeir
27:55They threw Ana Elizabeth into the grave.
27:57and Lindauro struck
27:59three more blows
28:00with the pickaxe.
28:01Ana Elizabeth
28:02she was buried
28:03under stones.
28:04She was buried.
28:05still alive.
28:07José Carlos
28:07witnessed the murder
28:08of the woman
28:09who was he married to
28:10for over 20 years.
28:22Everything really fell apart.
28:24by land
28:25when the body
28:26was found
28:27that Ana Elizabeth
28:28she was buried,
28:30wrapped in a sheet
28:32with the costume jewelry
28:35with the necklaces,
28:37the earrings
28:38and the high heel
28:39which is not
28:40an outfit
28:42adequate
28:43into captivity.
28:46upon arriving there
28:47at the crime scene,
28:48then I more
28:49Lindauro
28:49we took her out
28:49inside the trunk
28:50of the car,
28:51Let's take it to the point of loss.
28:52Was she screaming?
28:53No, he didn't shout.
28:53He did nothing.
28:54Was she calm?
28:54She was calm too.
28:56Then we put her there.
28:56on the edge of the hole,
28:57then Lindauro took
28:58the pickaxe,
28:58He gave it a pickaxe whack.
28:59in her mind,
29:00Then she fell.
29:02When she fell,
29:03Lindauro
29:03He gave three more blows with a pickaxe.
29:04in her mind,
29:05then we'll catch him
29:06she,
29:06we put it inside
29:07from the ditch,
29:09let's bury them,
29:09we put up some scribbles
29:10up there.
29:11I didn't know.
29:12in my experience
29:14a person being led
29:15into a grave
29:17prepared in advance
29:18for that act.
29:21Then she calls
29:21Pay attention to this.
29:22Judge Adhemar Vasconcelos,
29:24from Planaltina,
29:25Federal District,
29:26was responsible
29:27by the judgment.
29:29The person
29:31walking towards death
29:32in a way like this
29:34cruel,
29:36who flees
29:37those parameters
29:38of the homicide
29:39practiced on the street corner.
29:40of impulse.
29:42One of the defendants
29:43of the executors
29:44said that when
29:45I was playing
29:46the earth in the pit
29:48I could feel the breath.
29:50Hers, right?
29:51She was alive.
29:52She was moving.
29:53Then we went.
29:54until that opportunity
29:55Back to this,
29:56we made a phone call
29:57for the house
29:58by José Carlos
29:59saying it was a kidnapping.
30:07What is being sought?
30:08when one asks
30:10Regarding a crime?
30:11To mean,
30:12the most obvious question
30:13and more present
30:14for whoever committed the crime
30:15Is it because he practiced?
30:17What is the motivation behind this?
30:19And this motivation,
30:20sometimes,
30:20she doesn't keep
30:21in tune with the behavior
30:22of the victim.
30:23Then,
30:24for many,
30:25sometimes,
30:25the victim is the victim,
30:26but she could be
30:28completely innocent
30:30and this causes
30:31a perplexity
30:31for society.
30:36Ana Elizabeth
30:37she was a woman
30:38dedicated to family,
30:40entirely to the family
30:41and she had
30:43that situation
30:45of course,
30:46of the honest,
30:48of living honestly,
30:49of the product
30:50of her life
30:52being from work
30:53and her daughter
30:56and the children too
30:57they had a lot
30:58this situation
30:59and she,
31:00suddenly,
31:01really,
31:01she saw that
31:03to fall apart.
31:04She was going to a party.
31:06to buy a dress
31:07It was very difficult.
31:09and suddenly,
31:10when there was a party
31:11to go,
31:13two appeared,
31:14three dresses
31:14very easily
31:15that the father had.
31:16Then,
31:16this situation
31:17by Ana Elizabeth
31:18It was bothering her.
31:21He questioned.
31:22She wanted to know
31:23the origin,
31:24why,
31:25what is happening,
31:26That's not possible?
31:28She disagreed.
31:30with the money
31:32that Zé Carlos
31:33it was appearing
31:34indoors
31:35with him.
31:35She disagreed.
31:37therefore.
31:37And he said
31:39for me
31:39that she arrived
31:40to threaten
31:43or to
31:44Or I will report you.
31:46In a possible
31:47maneuver
31:48to divert
31:48the attention given to the case,
31:50José Carlos,
31:50alleged mastermind
31:52of the murder
31:52of his wife,
31:53revealed a deviation
31:54more than
31:55100 million
31:56dollars
31:57in the budget
31:57of the Union
31:58in one of the largest
31:59corruption schemes
32:00of the history of Brazil,
32:01which also
32:02I was involved.
32:28in 1992,
32:31Ana Elizabeth Lofrano
32:32she was seriously injured
32:33with blows
32:34pickaxe
32:34and buried
32:35still alive
32:36by Lindauro
32:37and his accomplice
32:37Valdeir.
32:38The two pointed
32:39José Carlos Alves dos Santos,
32:41Ana Elizabeth's husband,
32:42as the mastermind behind the crime.
32:44But the involvement
32:45by José Carlos
32:46in a scheme
32:46corruption
32:47raised suspicions
32:48that the murder
32:50it would have been
32:50File burning.
32:51Cornered by the accusation
32:53of what it would have been
32:54the principal
32:55of death
32:56of the wife,
32:56José Carlos
32:57decided to report
32:58one of the biggest
32:59corruption schemes
33:00involving members
33:01from the government,
33:02of which he was a part.
33:03He was
33:04Budget Director
33:05of the Union
33:05and one of those responsible
33:07through the diversion
33:07millions
33:08in federal funds.
33:10The parliamentarians
33:11involved in the scandal
33:12They became known
33:13like dwarves
33:14from the budget
33:14due to its low
33:15physical structure
33:16and for the secondary role
33:18that they played
33:19inside the National Congress.
33:21It was a structure
33:21which involved
33:22the deputies,
33:23politicians,
33:24necessarily involved
33:25government ministers
33:26that they needed
33:28release the funds
33:29and involved
33:30interests
33:30of contractors,
33:31construction companies
33:32for which
33:33were intended
33:34the resources
33:35who then returned
33:36in the form of a bribe
33:37For the members of parliament.
33:38The interview
33:39which revealed
33:40the corruption scheme
33:41for all of Brazil
33:42was granted
33:43to the then reporter
33:44Policarpo Júnior.
33:45The interview
33:46with José Carlos Alves
33:47It was fundamental.
33:48for sewing
33:49these tips
33:52who did not unite.
33:53We knew.
33:54that existed,
33:55but he,
33:55as a coach,
33:56he knew
33:56Where exactly?
33:58the sewing was done
33:59from all ends
34:00And who were they?
34:00the characters involved.
34:02Then,
34:02from the moment
34:03that he gave
34:03the interview,
34:04that he reveals
34:06these details,
34:07he created,
34:08at the time it was opened
34:09a CPI,
34:10a parliamentary committee
34:11investigation,
34:11he was responsible
34:14by detonation
34:15of the biggest scandal
34:16political
34:16attentive.
34:17José Carlos
34:18he was responsible
34:20by manipulating the numbers
34:21and ensure
34:22that public funds
34:23were distributed
34:24accordingly
34:25with interests
34:26of the budget dwarfs.
34:28Over the course of 13 years,
34:29he was in contact
34:30with contractors
34:31and learned how to make amendments
34:33which allowed
34:34the deviation
34:34of millions in funds
34:35from public funds.
34:37The scheme
34:37It was so well executed.
34:39that left no trace.
34:42He opened up the prerogatives
34:44to throw away this whole story
34:47in the air, in the wind,
34:50publicize this
34:51to ease the pressure on him.
34:54So I think it's once again
34:55he using tricks
34:57to ease the pressure on him.
34:59He made the mistake.
35:01to tell his accomplices,
35:03powerful cronies of Congress.
35:06The reason why
35:08the thesis of eliminating her
35:10through them
35:10It was never ruled out.
35:13For the defense.
35:14Never.
35:14Well, if the budget mafia
35:17had really
35:19ordered to kill,
35:21why would I send it?
35:24José Carlos's friend,
35:27José Carlos's detective,
35:29To involve him?
35:30To take him
35:31to make the complaints
35:33What did he do with the budget?
35:34And what interest
35:36if inside Congress
35:38There had been many times already
35:41allegations that
35:43Was the budget being falsified?
35:45Without him, the scheme wouldn't exist.
35:47because he was the coach
35:49who knew how to manage the budget.
35:52So why
35:53precisely to put
35:55under investigation
35:58the person who could say
36:01and give the ways
36:03And what was happening?
36:03What happened next?
36:05That he showed
36:06how it was
36:07that construction companies
36:08they worked,
36:09how was it done
36:10money laundering,
36:11He showed everything.
36:13Then,
36:13I don't see
36:14no possibility
36:17that this would have occurred
36:19because people
36:20would be involving
36:21to her.
36:23It was confusing.
36:24it was something that
36:25Rationally, you didn't understand.
36:27the journalist, at least,
36:28there, which has
36:29sporadic contacts.
36:31After that first interview,
36:32I had several other encounters with him.
36:34He, once,
36:35He looked for me,
36:35He sent me a message.
36:36of being tortured
36:37by the police.
36:38I went there,
36:39I heard,
36:39I interviewed,
36:40I even did a news report.
36:41Regarding the matter.
36:41His participation,
36:43the way he helped
36:44in these investigations,
36:46gave him
36:47a kind
36:48safe-conduct
36:49credibility.
36:50Then,
36:51something no one has ever done before.
36:52I believed,
36:53The guy told the whole truth.
36:55Regarding the budget issue.
36:57Is he really...
36:58lying too
36:58with regard to
37:00to the crime against women?
37:01The question remained.
37:01in people's minds,
37:02Me too
37:03As a journalist, you know?
37:08Desperate
37:08and with no way out,
37:10José Carlos wrote
37:11three cards.
37:11One for the daughter,
37:13one for the mistress,
37:14Cris Lene,
37:14and one for the CPI
37:16of the budget dwarfs,
37:17reaffirming the accusations.
37:19Right away,
37:20took more than 20 pills
37:21of a medicine
37:22that he used
37:23to control the pressure.
37:25When he understands
37:27perfectly,
37:28when, let's say,
37:28when it goes down
37:29that dust
37:31from that state
37:33narrowing
37:34of conscience,
37:35or rather,
37:35when it opens
37:36his conscience,
37:38and he knows,
37:39he realizes,
37:40he saw
37:40that he actually
37:41killed,
37:42realizes
37:43that he lost
37:44all,
37:45Life is no longer worth living.
37:46Nothing more.
37:47So he tries
37:48Suicide.
37:49Those who do not
37:50They were successful.
37:52they say,
37:53they,
37:54as if they were
37:55still in a state
37:58delusional,
38:00they will
38:01by suicide
38:04back,
38:05to the same place
38:06that the person
38:08that he killed
38:09he was.
38:10The attempt
38:12suicide
38:12It didn't work.
38:13and José Carlos
38:14was taken
38:15a jury trial
38:16at the Planaltina Forum.
38:19It was one of the trials.
38:20longer,
38:21if not the longest
38:21of history
38:22from Brazil.
38:23There was no
38:23popular demonstration,
38:25There was no pressure.
38:26from no segment,
38:29I did not receive it.
38:29No one's calling,
38:30Nobody interfered.
38:32It was a trial.
38:33which I put like this,
38:34I prepared myself.
38:35so that he could be judged.
38:36like all judgments.
38:38It doesn't happen
38:39this priority
38:40if it is not necessary,
38:42only
38:43by the protagonists.
38:44So it was normal.
38:45and the sentence
38:46He left at four.
38:47half past the morning
38:48from the ninth day of the trial.
38:49Just stick to the base
38:50in 17 years of imprisonment,
38:52adding it
38:53six months of imprisonment
38:54by force
38:55of the aggravating circumstance
38:56as provided for in article 61,
38:58Paragraph 2, letter E.
39:03There was,
39:04throughout the community,
39:07in all people
39:08who participated,
39:10after the pronunciation,
39:11from the defense's statement,
39:13there was
39:14a disappointment,
39:15with the conviction.
39:17In truth,
39:18morally,
39:19Zé Carlos
39:19He was acquitted.
39:21The score,
39:22at the time,
39:22that was possible
39:23to be disclosed,
39:24today is no longer the case,
39:25but it was 4 to 3,
39:27to mean,
39:27He was convicted by one vote.
39:31He never regretted it.
39:33He didn't even look for it,
39:34at no point,
39:36the conviction
39:36of the executors.
39:38And he knew,
39:39It was them,
39:40to mean,
39:40And he always showed that.
39:42I had no doubt.
39:43who they really were,
39:44and that there is no doubt,
39:45Besides the confession,
39:45They carried it in their bodies.
39:48Not a minute
39:50he went after
39:51of justice
39:54for the dead,
39:55which was the opposite
39:56of the daughter,
39:57from the doctor,
39:57from Adriana,
39:59who accompanied the jury,
40:00I wanted to see the jury,
40:01of the executors.
40:03In that case...
40:04from Adriana,
40:05his daughter,
40:06It's very complicated.
40:08to mean,
40:10the parents could give
40:11so good,
40:12but to reach a point
40:13to know
40:14that the father
40:15killed his mother
40:16with all this rigor,
40:17with all this cruelty,
40:19and the father
40:20She turns to her daughter.
40:21and says he didn't do it,
40:23It's very complicated.
40:24She doesn't accept it.
40:25the information that we have,
40:27she doesn't accept
40:27the investigation,
40:29He doesn't accept any of that.
40:31In a way,
40:32I even admire it.
40:32her love.
40:34I actually think that's beautiful.
40:36I think that
40:37if someone
40:38I wanted a good one.
40:39example of love
40:40unconditional,
40:41I think that love
40:42daughter by father
40:43That's cool.
40:47I had a conversation
40:48with her
40:48very serious before
40:50and said to her,
40:51Adriana,
40:52You lost your mother.
40:54Don't lose your father.
40:57Every human being,
40:59he has
41:00justice itself,
41:02Give it to him.
41:03The doubt
41:04It has to be resolved.
41:05in his favor.
41:07At the time
41:08of the sentence,
41:09if in doubt,
41:11the acquittal
41:12You have to assert yourself.
41:18Despite the possible
41:19attempt
41:20to divert attention
41:21about death
41:22by Ana Elisabeth
41:22with the complaint
41:23of the scheme
41:24of the dwarves
41:24from the budget,
41:25José Carlos
41:26was judged
41:27and condemned.
41:28But the chain
41:29It was still far away.
41:55in 1993,
41:57one year after the crime,
41:58José Carlos, in a maneuver to divert attention from the kidnapping of his wife,
42:04He exposed the "dwarfs of the budget," one of the biggest corruption schemes in Brazil.
42:09After attempting suicide, José Carlos went to trial by jury and was ultimately convicted.
42:17He didn't know what prison really was like.
42:20He says José Carlos didn't know him.
42:23José Carlos was unfamiliar with the dungeons of prisons, the filth of Brazilian prisons.
42:28José Carlos did not go to jail.
42:30José Carlos was detained, not in jail, but in a room at a police station.
42:37In terms of the prison system, if you talk like that, it's a prison and all that, right?
42:43It's only considered imprisonment because of the restriction on freedom of movement.
42:48But in terms of facilities, no, it was a room, a suite, it had a private bathroom.
42:55The guy wanted to kill his wife to be with his mistress.
42:59And the most interesting thing is that today he's with his mistress.
43:03I mean, it worked.
43:06Apparently, crime paid off.
43:08He planned to kill in order to be with his mistress, and he succeeded.
43:11Those real criminals who commit crimes of passion, they're pathetic.
43:18Deep down, they are pathetic.
43:20It's not that they don't deserve prison, don't deserve to be kept away from society, don't deserve a series of punishments.
43:27That's for sure, there's no doubt about it.
43:28But they are victims of themselves.
43:33When they kill, they are also dying.
43:37When they commit aggression against the person they loved, they are also harming themselves.
43:44No one is obligated to live unhappily alongside another person.
43:48People, I understand that it would even be a fundamental right, but there's no need to put it in the Constitution.
43:55We have the right to be happy.
43:58Now, we cannot place the happiness of others in our own hands.
44:03We have to provide it.
44:04Nor should you seek in that person a happiness that perhaps does not exist.
44:08So, economic dependency, I saw a lot of that in the juvenile court, in the family court, and in the women's court in our...
44:14In this country, it's a glaring issue.
44:17She becomes subject to economic dependence, sometimes even to violence from her husband because of it.
44:25But I believe that possibility exists.
44:28And it exists for many people, until death do us part.
44:57The budget dwarfs scandal
44:59It was a watershed moment in Brazilian politics.
45:02It allowed other complaints to surface and measures to be taken to try to prevent further fraud.
45:09However, of the 18 parliamentarians indicted in the case, 4 resigned before the impeachment process.
45:168 were fully acquitted.
45:19Only 6 deputies lost their seats.
45:22José Carlos is a free man today.
45:25But he still needs to answer for his involvement in the corruption scheme he helped to destroy.
45:30José Carlos and Ana Elizabeth's three children continue to live in Brazil's capital.
45:35And they just want to forget what happened.
