A tragic incident occurred in Andradina, São Paulo, where a 38-year-old cleaning assistant, Simoni Trigueiro, was found dead in her home. Authorities confirmed that she died from asphyxiation, and the main suspect, her boyfriend, has reportedly fled the scene. Family members alerted the police after the suspect informed them of the crime, raising immediate concerns about domestic violence in the relationship.

Reports from the Civil Police indicate that Trigueiro had been in a six-month relationship with the suspect, who has a troubling history of violence, having previously been incarcerated for another feminicide but released just six months ago. Despite previous incidents of aggression, including an assault just 15 days before her death, Trigueiro did not file any police reports or seek protective measures, likely due to threats made against her and her family by the suspect.

This case highlights ongoing issues surrounding domestic violence in Brazil, particularly the challenges faced by victims in seeking help. The alarming pattern of releasing offenders back into society without adequate measures for victim protection raises serious questions about the efficacy of current laws and support systems designed to safeguard individuals in abusive situations.
