Paloma Ribeiro da Silva, a 33-year-old woman, was found dead in a hammock in Roraima, Brazil, just a week after she reported her husband for domestic violence.

Paloma Ribeiro da Silva, 33, was discovered dead in a hammock in Alto Alegre, Roraima, amid suspicions that her death is linked to domestic abuse. Just a week prior, she had filed a report against her husband, aged 42, for physical assaults. Family members believe the tragic incident is connected to the reported violence by her spouse.

She was found deceased at a farm by its owner around midday, with indications that she had been present in the area since Monday, accompanied by her husband, who had been working there.
