00:00THE CITY IN BRAZIL
00:30I compare myself to a ball of yarn where you've pulled the beginning of the thread.
00:45The PCC has never been a drug trafficking faction.
00:49although drug trafficking is one of the main markets operated by the PCC.
00:56Marcola's leadership was never questioned.
01:02And he has a power that nobody else has. If you don't do it, I'll kill you.
01:10The death of a drug trafficker on the border with Paraguay may be linked to organized crime in Brazil.
01:17Jorge Rafate was executed in the middle of the street, inside an armored car.
01:21with machine gun fire that can even bring down an airplane.
01:38Closing the border is like, I don't know,
01:41It's about waiting for Santa Claus to come and announce Christmas and bring some presents.
01:52That's an illusion.
02:13At 348 billion per year, criminal activity in Brazil ranks as the third largest Brazilian business.
02:22And there
02:34And there

08:01The first command in the capital, he has areas where he carries out his criminal activities.
08:13We have not just a few communities, but even entire regions, like in the Baixada Santista region.
08:26The drug, coming from producing countries here in South America, passes through Brazil and through
08:34From the port of Santos, it goes to a port called Joia Tauro, in Calabria.
08:40From there, it distributes throughout Europe.
08:55My name is Ângelo Marcos Canuto da Silva.
08:58Today I'm a script consultant; I was nicknamed "Vugo Fusca" in the prison system, I spent 15 years incarcerated.
09:10The Port of Santos is gigantic, with a huge number of people involved.
09:15It is the largest port in Latin America.
09:19Attempts are made several times to infiltrate airports, but it's not very effective and is much more heavily monitored.
09:28And for each thing to happen, who has to arrive first?
09:32The drug dealer and the criminal don't arrive first.
09:35The corruption network is what gets there first.
09:38How much do you pay?
09:39Everything has its price.
09:50Here's what happens: the PCC is the criminal faction with the most members.
09:57And sometimes, it happens that some members have a financial condition.
10:02and rely on some businessmen to try to launder his money.
10:05Comando Vermelho still doesn't have that somewhat business-oriented vision, so to speak.
10:11I don't think Comando Vermelho has that yet, at least not that I know of.
10:15The PCC has so much money that it no longer needs to collect contributions from its members.
10:25The PCC only kills when someone gets too close to something incriminating, like Mateo in Guarulhos.
10:37Well, my name is Carlos Bruno Gaia da Costa.
10:40I am an integral member of the Special Task Force to Combat Organized Crime, GAECO.
10:48Members of Comando Vermelho have great difficulty in enjoying these benefits.
10:52They are unable to leave that very limited territorial space within the communities of Rio de Janeiro.
11:04Leaders, especially those in the Tatuapé region, decided they wanted to live the same life as everyone else.
11:11To frequent fine restaurants, to frequent fine hotels, to drink wine with high society,
11:18To drive luxury cars without being disturbed, to live in the neighborhoods where São Paulo's elite reside.
11:25What is the desire of a guy who lived an illicit life and accumulated a lot of money, and you don't want that money?
11:32Is it hiding?
11:33So I need to put this in a place where I can justify it and talk about it.
11:37No, I am a businessman in a certain area, I am so-and-so.
11:40And that's what they achieved with the help of Antônio Vinícius Gritzbach.
11:45I admit that I participated in these transactions; it was a commercial sale where my office was involved.
11:52He did the legal analysis, changed the contracts, and that's where I ended up doing it in my cousin's name and...
11:59My uncle.
12:01The story of Vinícius Gritzbach, it started like this: he was a money launderer for the PCC (Primeiro Comando da Capital), he started laundering through various means.
12:10real estate, of properties.
12:12He eventually switched to laundering money for that gang using cryptocurrency.
12:20Vinícius was involved in real estate deals with some people connected to the PCC.
12:25One of them, Anselmo Bechelli Santa Fausta, known as Cara Preta.
12:30There is suspicion that Vinícius owed Cara Preta 100 million reais.
12:35He ended up appropriating the money from those drug dealers.
12:41All the witnesses described her as an extremely charming and friendly person, who took everyone out to dinner and threw big parties.
12:55Antônio Vinícius Gritzbach was afraid of being murdered because of the plea bargain he signed with the Public Prosecutor's Office.
13:03to reveal the money laundering schemes of the criminal faction.
13:20At the largest and busiest airport in the country, in Guarulhos, Greater São Paulo, in broad daylight, 29 shots were fired.
13:32Vinícius Gritzbach was hit by 10 bullets.
13:42It is evident that society turns a blind eye to this type of organized crime.
13:49What often happens is that a car dealership owner knows that that person
13:58It's criminal; you see that person paying with a certain type of money, very expensive vehicles, and she sees that the intention of that person...
14:08The criminal act is precisely laundering the money.
14:11The PCC launders money through anything, even dog food.
14:22As if that weren't enough, the PCC has links to foreign mafias.
14:30Giovanni Milillo, Procuratore Nazionale Antimafia e Antiterrorism.
14:37Recycling and corruption are the fundamental instruments for expanding the influence of transnational organized crime networks.
14:47Therefore, it is quite evident that deciphering recycling systems,
14:53As well as understanding the logic of corruption systems, these are the two main objectives of effective investigative action.
15:03How factions like the PCC forcibly infiltrated all sectors of the Brazilian economy.
15:11This operation on Faria Lima, I metaphorically compare it to a ball of yarn where we pulled the beginning of the thread.
15:20from the ball of yarn.
15:20Operation Hidden Carbon mobilized 1,400 agents in eight states, who executed 348 search and seizure warrants.
15:30You have this difficulty in getting to the CPF (Brazilian taxpayer ID) at the end of this chain of funds.
15:36Investment funds and equity funds.
15:42I think there's nothing more interesting than Bitcoin, the intangible digital currencies.
15:51It's a key. Who holds that key? Where is that money?
15:55And this money circulates worldwide, everywhere.
15:58From tax evasion to a completely fraudulent scheme of buying and selling invoices.
16:06The adulteration of alcohol with methanol was a scheme that involved a series of interconnected crimes.
16:16In other words, one crime facilitated the other.
16:20You're seeing organized crime injecting money into the market, which is perhaps one of the most...
16:27The perverse aspects of this money laundering, this symbiosis in its economic aspect.
16:33I would say that the PCC, we are only now beginning to uncover its true size.
16:44Power in the CCP is not personalized.
16:48This guy who has business here, he holds a position in the organization's structure.
16:53If he can no longer participate because he was arrested, is isolated, was killed, etc., the other person steps in.
16:58His place.
16:58They give more freedom for the member of the faction or that person associated with the faction member to develop their business, to...
17:08to obtain their profits,
17:09But always without forgetting that they owe loyalty, that they owe satisfaction to the faction.
17:16He doesn't want those crimes that are committed to interfere with his business.
17:20What can eventually happen is that members of the criminal faction, associates, will commit those crimes that they know about.
17:31commit.
17:34It's cargo theft on the São Paulo-Campinas axis.
17:38In terms of added value, this accounts for almost 70% of cargo theft in Latin America.
17:44Let's imagine I'm a cargo thief, I take my car and rob a cargo truck, for example.
17:48On Bandeirantes?
17:49No, that's not possible.
17:50Because there is control over who commits crimes in the name of organized crime. It's not possible.
18:02If you ask any driver, they don't have one. They work calmly, they work under pressure, under fear, right?
18:11We feel good and safe, right? Right there on the road, at night, since we play at night.
18:17If we see a strange car, we'll look at it with fear, sometimes because it's a robbery.
18:29A robbery every five minutes.
18:32More than 100 people are robbed or have their belongings stolen from every two hours here in the city of São Paulo.
18:37In the city of São Paulo, more than 154,000 cell phone thefts and robberies were recorded.
18:44Two robberies in less than 20 seconds on the same street in Sapopemba, in the eastern part of the capital.
18:53The cyclist who was murdered over a cell phone.
18:56In the image, we can see that he was shot without even fully understanding what was happening, right?
19:01It all happened very quickly.
19:07I was robbed two days in a row, in less than 24 hours.
19:13I lost my way.
19:15And every time I was robbed.
19:17I've already been shot at in the back of my car.
19:20I've seen a machine on the back of my neck before.
19:22They already told me to walk, walking behind me with the camera, to take the car.
19:31He made a move, and if it's easy for him, they'll take him.
19:34If you're here, it might suddenly happen that you get a fright.
19:39Out of nowhere, these guys come, grab your belongings, and take them away.
20:01General communicator.
20:03We want everyone to know that the patience of the capital's first command has run out regarding robberies in the area.
20:10Broken buildings and disrespect towards the residents of these peripheral neighborhoods.
20:16In fact, if the capital's top command is interested in demanding that that crime not be committed, that's up to him.
20:25You'll succeed.
20:26Here today, there is a system of management and a monopoly on peace.
20:30Because by maintaining peace, this person has no reason to attack me.
20:34These soldiers here have no reason to invade my territory.
20:37Because the monopoly on peace is far more appealing than the monopoly on war.
20:43It's not that he lowers the violence rates. I have no dispute.
20:47In São Paulo you don't see this war, this attempt to take over territory.
20:53No one enters Paraisópolis shooting in the middle of the night because they're going to take over that area, which belongs to a gang.
21:03Why? Because it has this predominance, this dominance of organized crime.
21:10That dominates there. There, nobody kills, nobody steals, it's all under the control of crime.
21:19The PCC (Primeiro Comando da Capital) today changes the entire real estate structure of a region if it decides, for example, to relocate Cracolândia to...
21:29the block,
21:30Where those buildings interest you.
21:33He migrates to Cracolândia, she stays for two weeks, the crack addicts are sick, using drugs, the price of the property drops.
21:43The PCC goes there and buys the vacant property.
21:46I won't be able to, within this complex context involving territorial domination, financial shift of a criminal faction,
21:54Transnationalization means you can't do anything alone.
21:57It's important that everyone understands the seriousness of the problem.
21:59We are very close to reaching an irreversible point.
22:04And the Brazilian names are the names of the PSC and Comando Vermelho.
22:11They play a significant role in the global dimension of transnational organized crime.
22:40Brazil has 8.5 million square kilometers, 17,000 kilometers of land border,
22:46It borders 10 of the 12 countries in South America, and 3 of them are the largest producers of
22:54world's drug.
22:56Our neighbors.
23:09The border is a very complex place, because here we have conflicts of customs, conflicts of legislation.
23:19We have different countries, each one approaches crime control in its own way.
23:27This doesn't mean you shouldn't have efforts to control, monitor, and suppress criminal activity at the border.
23:36To truly understand the border, you have to be on the border, you have to be active, you have to be living it here.
23:45Here, if you can open Google Maps, you'll see that this line is all winding.
23:50We have a large landform here in Mato Grosso do Sul, which is the Serra de Maracajú.
23:55So, what defines the border between the countries here is the base of the mountain range.
24:01So, this path will always be winding.
24:05Because of this winding shape, sometimes we have a marker on one side, but the Brazilian highway is...
24:14on the opposite side of the marker.
24:16I'm going to record the same ones and...
24:33To understand what happens in the T&D family,
24:49The operation that intercepted a light aircraft in Concepción with the help of a Super Tucano and a mobile radar,
24:56It is presumed that the aircraft entered Paraguay from the north.
25:01Speaking only of the Amambai region, we are talking about easily 300 kilometers of land border.
25:12How many men, how much equipment will you need for that? It's impossible.
25:24Captain, listen. I'm going to tell you.
25:29This is a route that is used, for example, because they want to bring illicit goods into Brazil.
25:35It's a route used both to enter Paraguay and also to transport cars loaded with drugs and weapons.
25:44Paraguay via this road here.
25:57So, it's a very big difficulty, because sometimes the road they're using is the same road that...
26:06Farmers in the region also use it to transport their produce.
26:09Paraguay doesn't have the slightest chance of shutting down Paraguay. They don't have the men, they don't have the weapons, they don't have...
26:14The structure is lacking equipment.
26:18Closing the border is like, I don't know, expecting Santa Claus to come to Sinai and bring some presents.
26:26On the radio, we usually say that the Brazilian police are a little more serious than the Paraguayan police.
26:33But it's just a little bit, it doesn't make much difference.
26:37The authorities are only there to take money.
26:43For that purpose only.
26:45They are only thinking about their own interests for the future.
26:49I can take my car and drive to Campo Grande.
26:53And I might get there without any control.
26:57What could I be carrying? I'm carrying it in my car.
27:30The idea that we're going to be able to close the border completely,
27:33It's an illusion.
27:39A classic example is the United States and Mexico, which share a 3,000-kilometer border.
27:43The United States only borders Mexico.
27:44The United States, the world's greatest economic and military power.
27:48A very simple biome to monitor, a desert biome.
27:57That's an illusion, man. There's no way you can...
27:59Our country is, let's say, continental.
28:04The existing borders are very large.
28:06So the guy will arrive at the border, there are drugs, big traffickers, you don't bring them in by mule.
28:10He comes by plane, by helicopter.
28:11So, I don't think so...
28:13That's an illusion.
28:16Fernandinho Iberamar is considered the police's number one enemy.
28:20In Colombia, he is known as El Capo del Narcotráfico Brasileiro (The Brazilian Drug Kingpin).
28:24I have no connection whatsoever with the FARC.
28:26I was simply living in a FARC-controlled area for my safety.
28:29I have no problem with the FARC.
28:32I never helped the FARC in any way.
28:40We here, I've heard a lot about the Solimões Route.
28:43Which is an extremely strategic route for drug trafficking.
28:47It connects the neighboring countries there, Peru and Colombia.
28:50And it extends all the way to Pará.
28:54And in the Peruvian region, where there are many laboratories,
28:57many coca leaf plantations,
29:00which is the main natural product
29:04where the caloide is damaged and cocaine is obtained.
29:22Be careful.
29:33We can appreciate it here
29:35the extensive quantity of coca hoja seeds.
29:40Around the surroundings, everywhere,
29:44in a 360º radius,
29:47You can see the quantity of coca leaf plantations.
29:50We can calculate, based on this part alone,
29:52approximately 50 hectares or more
29:55coca leaf.
29:57What if they take him to the laboratories?
29:59so that, afterwards,
30:01with the use of other chemical inputs,
30:04producecan
30:05the basic paste of cocaine.
30:17Asimismo,
30:18one can appreciate
30:19scraped coca leaf,
30:21for which,
30:22dedicated people
30:23to drug trafficking
30:25have been using
30:26a chopper
30:27with a metal crossbar.
30:30Pican a hoja de coca
30:31to be mixed
30:33with other chemical inputs.
30:36Perhaps,
30:37like cement.
30:41Similarly,
30:42one can appreciate
30:43bidones
30:44containing hydrocarbons
30:46petroleum derivatives,
30:47Gasoline.
30:49In the following process,
30:51vierte a hoja de coca
30:52bite
30:53mezclada
30:54with other chemical inputs
30:55for which,
30:57extractor
30:57the cocaine alkaloid.
31:00Using
31:02the chemical reagent
31:04that the sign
31:05cobalt
31:05will proceed
31:07to perform the field test.
31:12throw
31:13a coloring
31:13turquoise blue,
31:15indicative
31:15presumptive
31:16for the presence
31:17of the cocaine alkaloid.
31:37We have to take shelter.
31:39why
31:41the drug traffickers
31:42they are
31:43shooting at
31:44the military
31:46here in this area
31:47coca cultivation.
32:12This network is always
32:13with both hands,
32:15it's not a network
32:16one-way street.
32:18Then,
32:18if an organization
32:20Brazilian
32:21join this network,
32:22So let's think
32:24to give an example
32:25Of course
32:25in cocaine.
32:28Coca leaf
32:29which is Andean,
32:32She is in Peru.
32:33in Colombia
32:34and in quality,
32:35attention,
32:36quality
32:36It's communication.
32:38because who has
32:39the raw material,
32:40who does
32:42the extract
32:44needs
32:45chemical products
32:46and Brazil
32:47It's the biggest.
32:48supplier,
32:49It's the biggest.
32:49chemical industry
32:50from Latin America.
32:51And that explains it.
32:53why
32:54Red Command
32:55dominates
32:55The north of the country.
32:57He's going there.
32:58to Acre,
32:59He's going there.
32:59for the Amazon,
33:01He's going there.
33:01to Roraima.
33:14you realize
33:15there
33:15who dominates
33:16It's the Red Command.
33:17because he has
33:18what to find
33:19another place
33:20to bring
33:21his drug
33:21that now
33:22it's called
33:23Solimãs Route.
33:35what do we have
33:37currently here
33:38it's the domain
33:39of urban centers
33:41by a faction
33:42from Rio de Janeiro.
33:44She holds the hegemony.
33:45here in the big cities
33:48and in all cities
33:49from the interior
33:50or almost all of them.
33:55Here we are.
33:56on one arm
33:57of the Solimões River.
34:06The territory
34:07that they want to dominate
34:09It is fluvial,
34:10It's the river,
34:11it is the region
34:12of the Amazon Rainforest
34:13to do
34:14this drainage.
34:15And here it comes
34:15the disputes
34:17within the rivers
34:21and we realized
34:22That's where the violence comes from.
34:23increasing
34:24in the communities
34:25because they are
34:26the territories
34:27that they are
34:28arriving and occupying
34:29to achieve
34:30to drain
34:31Drugs.
34:47It's a point on the river.
34:48that the traffickers
34:49they use
34:50so as not to pass
34:51in front of the cities
34:52because I know
34:52that in these cities,
34:53in the communities
34:54There is policing.
34:55There's always a patrol,
34:56may have
34:57any type
34:58police roadblock.
34:58You see?
34:59on our right
35:00there?
35:00It is a vessel.
35:01navigating.
35:02There in the dark
35:03we have
35:04to identify
35:05if it's riverside
35:06Or if he's a drug trafficker.
35:17Trafficking
35:18came to
35:18for the municipality,
35:22right?
35:23What has changed?
35:23because nobody
35:24can't anymore
35:28to live free,
35:30right?
35:34Nobody can
35:35more going out,
35:37it cannot...
35:39Nobody can
35:40not even traveling
35:41in a river like this,
35:44but...
35:46So what else
35:47matters
35:48in relation to
35:49the territory
35:49for the factions
35:51this area
35:52there bordering
35:53The Solimões River.
36:01Siren!
36:23Hold on tight!
36:28Safe!
36:29Safe!
36:31Safe!
36:32Low,
36:32he can,
36:32he can,
36:32he can,
36:34he can,
36:35he can,
36:38There,

36:45Later on
36:46From the other side!
36:49Handle,
36:50Go!
36:51Handle,
36:54Handle,
37:01In June 2025, a police operation took place that symbolizes the issue of gunfights, here in Amazonas.
37:10Police intercepted a drug shipment being transported from the Triple Frontier towards Pará.
37:18There was intense fighting.
37:26The speedboat being used to transport the drugs had six high-powered engines.
37:39At the time, a .50 caliber machine gun, a grenade launcher, a .30 caliber repeating machine gun, and, if I'm not mistaken, six more rifles were seized.
37:51Therefore, the main difference for us here in Amazonas is that the people who were fighting on the side of
38:01Drug traffickers are people who have the military training of Colombian guerrillas.
38:09In my opinion, the rifle here is not the primary means by which drug traffickers fight the police.
38:19We have a much greater military power here.
38:27This drug originates from Peru; it is a seizure of cocaine, both the common cocaine that we know and the cocaine we are familiar with.
38:36white,
38:37But also, interestingly here, is black cocaine.
38:41Looking at this cocaine here, you can see its distinct color.
38:46It is mixed with other chemical components, which makes it difficult for a sniffer dog to detect that it is [something else].
38:57cocaine.
39:00Part of this problem of dissemination was also a matter of growth.
39:05both the growth of organizations in Rio and those in São Paulo.
39:10On the other hand, as growth intensified, it became necessary to secure new routes.
39:16So, the Northeast, for example, was included in this scheme.
39:22I am Roberto Sá, currently the Secretary of Public Security and Social Defense for the State of Ceará.
39:46There is a very strong connection.
39:48Yes, this criminal faction from Rio de Janeiro is present throughout Brazil, practically.
39:56Crime, in fact, no longer has borders, let alone state lines.
40:12Here, you go out, and you don't know when you'll be back home.
40:18You can leave everything in its place and when you arrive, you'll simply have taken everything.
40:23Or it's simply not accepted in one's own home because one doesn't want to be pretentious about people's choices.
40:31This is just very difficult.
40:34And as he arrives, as is often the case, he is practically forced to coexist in that space.
40:41Where there is no fear of reporting, it will be the same for her.
40:46And this makes it seem like a difficult choice for humanity.
40:53A video shows the moment a tourist from São Paulo was murdered in the village of Jericoacoara, on the coast of Ceará.
41:01He was dragged by several men to a deserted location, where his body was found.
41:08The teenager allegedly posed for photos, making hand gestures reminiscent of a symbol belonging to a rival criminal faction.
41:16Father and son were in Geri, as it's known, this paradise here in our state.
41:20I was on vacation when all this happened.
41:27Crime grew here and there, and its ramifications expanded internationally.
41:32We have our prisons, admittedly, with 88 criminal factions dominating the system.
41:44Today you already have the largest faction in Rio, spread throughout Brazil, in almost every state.
41:53The same goes for the São Paulo faction.
41:58These are new drug trafficking routes, and it has also been possible to form small groups there.
42:07This territorial issue is not a new one.
42:14This place used to be a colony.
42:15So, when it arrives, it has already occupied the indigenous territory.
42:20We can't forget that.
42:32I think organized crime has discovered illegal mining as a way to make money as well.
42:41Lost, lost, lost.
42:43Police, police, police.
42:45Come, come, come.
42:49Illegal mining, in reality, is a new way for criminal factions to acquire resources and is highly profitable.
42:58Primarily in gold extraction, trading, and also using this product as a means of exchange.
43:05Yes, there is a presence of organized crime, acting in conjunction with, and sometimes even taking the lead on, illegal mining operations.
43:15especially in the Sararé indigenous territory, located near the border with Bolivia.
43:24Lost, lost, lost.
43:25Police, police.
43:27Come on, you lost, you lost.
43:29To hell with the machine.
43:31To hell with the machine.
43:32Come on, go down, go down, go down.
43:36The amount of gold, for example, from Brazil that goes abroad without any control is very large.
43:43The Sararé indigenous territory is a facet of the Amazon rainforest and, therefore, makes the work of state agencies very difficult.
43:53federal,
43:53in combating this type of crime.
43:57It stopped, it stopped, it stopped, it stopped.
43:58It stopped.
43:59It stopped, it stopped.
43:59Hands on your head, hands on your head.
44:03Armada aqui, ó.
44:05Goodbye.
44:05You.
44:05Ce é lá, aí daí.
44:06Come on over.
44:07That's it, kid.
44:20I'm arriving.
44:21You, I'm not arriving.
44:23I went.
44:33see the light
44:35Goiame, Anga
44:41Via, Iri
44:57Something is arriving here that we thought...
45:00that would never reach our territory.
45:06It was a farm, like an abandoned farm.
45:09But when we got there, it was a headquarters,
45:12as if it were the headquarters of the drug trafficking command that was inside.
45:17And from there, we start receiving these reprisals.
45:21Training the little warriors here.
45:34They have investigated, they have acted, but what we observe is...
45:38especially here in this region,
45:39that most of the deaths of indigenous people
45:42These problems are a consequence of the increase in drug trafficking in the region.
45:48Our task force has already identified members of criminal organizations.
45:53various, from various states.
45:55The faction that operates in Rio de Janeiro has arrived in the region.
46:00They generally use indigenous lands for logistical support.
46:07for their criminal activities, right?
46:09Whether it's to hide weapons, as happened here in Porto Seguro,
46:13where they believe that, because it is indigenous land,
46:18They face more obstacles in preventing actions by security forces.
46:22whether in indigenous lands, where they are used as corridors
46:26for drug trafficking.
46:27From May until now, in December,
46:31In the Porto Seguro region, 29 rifles have already been seized.
46:35These are large areas, right?
46:38Where they can, with relative ease,
46:43Hiding those weapons, right?
46:45Not only to confront the security forces,
46:49but also for territorial control.
46:53And each state produced very different criminal arrangements.
47:01And often we think about this issue.
47:04always mentioning the Rio experience as a benchmark,
47:08in the sense of saying,
47:08Drug trafficking in Bahia, in Paraíba,
47:13He was caught up in the drug trafficking ring in Rio de Janeiro.
47:16by the militias of Rio de Janeiro.
47:18That's true, to some extent.
47:21But it is also true that in each place they developed
47:25Specific forms of territorial domination and armed control.
47:31Ceará has a geographical position in the country,
47:35in a way, privileged and an object of desire.
47:41for those who work with international drug trafficking.
47:47Ceará has the closest airport and ports to Europe and the United States.
47:57I see that there is a connection in the criminal world.
48:01but also the historical and cultural ties between Rio de Janeiro and Ceará.
48:06So, some practices that are carried out there,
48:10We realize that some of the criminals are trying to replicate this here.
48:38Our sons, David and Daniel, were two lovely boys, weren't they?
48:43Extremely responsible.
48:47On the day of the incident, I saw a lot of police cars moving around, right?
48:56They asked what had happened.
48:59I told them they were looking for my two sons.
49:03At that moment, the policeman looked at the other.
49:08And suddenly, I already felt that bad feeling, you know?
49:19I saw the two murdered boys.
49:24in a cruel way,
49:27side by side,
49:29The boys with backpacks, well dressed.
49:34And at that moment...
49:39It was the worst moment of my life.
49:44These criminals came, approached them,
49:47And then they asked where they were from.
49:50And they said it was from another neighborhood.
49:53And what we know from the police, from the findings they've had, right?
49:59The investigations that took place,
50:01It was precisely because they lived in another community.
50:06They didn't understand the fights that were happening in the region, did they?
50:11From fights of...
50:14Territories.
50:14Of territories.
50:16It's indescribable.
50:18It doesn't have to, because, if we, if the pain of losing a child is great,
50:24Can you imagine losing two?
50:37With all due respect to those who think differently,
50:40Today I have an understanding that our country,
50:45He didn't realize it, or if he did, he didn't address it.
50:50For what reason, I don't know.
50:52Properly, with the rigor it should have,
50:55This growth and strengthening of criminal organizations.
51:00Today, crime is sophisticated for several reasons.
51:03The mobility of criminals is very high.
51:05They move between state borders.
51:08But he's not just a national anymore.
51:11It is also global.
51:14The amount of weaponry here is typical of war zones, right?
51:18It exists, right?
51:19And top-of-the-line weapons.
51:21And here in Brazil, nothing is manufactured.
51:23The borders are wide open.
51:26We have already made this clear to the US authorities,
51:30or United States, for example,
51:32that we are the ones who receive here,
51:34We are victims of arms trafficking.
51:36which is not adequately curbed in the United States.
51:39Barbieri is considered by the Brazilian police
51:41The country's biggest arms trafficker.
51:44It is estimated that he sent more than a thousand rifles.
51:47and 300,000 rounds of ammunition from Miami to Brazil.
51:55We are seeing more and more weapon parts being shipped.
51:59So you have a container there that should be carrying some other type of product.
52:03And there in the middle is a rifle part, for example, some rifle parts.
52:07Everyone likes to say that we don't produce cocaine or guns here.
52:13Cocaine, okay. Rifle, forget it.
52:16Previously unseen images reveal how the clandestine rifle factory scheme operated.
52:22in Minas Gerais and in São Paulo.
52:25Both factories had a capacity of approximately 2,000 rifles per year.
52:33And in the German operation, more than 100 rifles were seized there.
52:37and several had the same characteristics and possibly came from those factories that were busted.
52:44Investigators estimate that this clandestine arms industry
52:49He even supplied around a thousand rifles to the gangs in Rio.
52:55We began identifying companies or individuals located abroad.
52:59who make a lot of money off Brazilian misfortune,
53:03who make a lot of money from organized crime here in Brazil.
53:06The drug dealer has a rifle; someone made money selling that rifle.
53:12Folks, let's overcome our naiveté. We need to look at the numbers.
53:16At 348 billion per year, criminal activity in Brazil ranks as the third largest Brazilian business.
53:25The bank manager sees so much money leaving.
53:28And I say more for those who are navigating.
53:31This is much more than hypocrisy. This is criminal conduct.
53:36There's always been hypocrisy, there always has been.
53:38In society in general, man. Society condemns crime.
53:42But crime coexists with it. In other words, how can that be?
53:49But I'm going to ask a question that might be interesting to some.
53:55Who is maintaining the drug trade?
53:59Is it society itself that consumes the drug?
54:03That initial image we have in our minds of the good society that exists here.
54:08And if these marginal elements are eliminated, only good society will remain; they don't exist.
54:15Because people always think that crime is here and good society is over there.
54:19And that crime is infiltrating. And what I'm saying is that things are like this.
54:38The barricade is a symbol of social, territorial, and occupational control.
54:46As the territory was gradually taken over and the settlement proceeded smoothly,
54:51Other sources of income emerged as possibilities.
54:57Militias are born precisely from this logic, right?
55:03It was a laboratory that taught drug trafficking, it taught organized crime.
55:09How to maximize your profits.
55:12Organized crime and politics have always been inextricably linked.
55:21I think it's high time we joined forces, don't you think?
55:25The time has truly come when the forces must come to an understanding.
55:51Thanks.
56:26Thanks.
56:57Thanks.
57:27Thanks.
57:33Thanks.
