Crime occurred on July 9, 2022, during Marcelo’s anniversary celebration, which was an asset member of the Workers Party (PT)
Former criminal police officer Jorge Guaranho, 40, was sentenced to 20 years of imprisonment by the 50-year-old in Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná. The crime occurred on July 9, 2022, during Marcelo’s birthday celebration, which was an asset member of (PT). Guaranho broke into the party, generating provocations among the guests, and, after a heated discussion, fired at Marcelo, who died the next day.
The accusation against Guaranho was of doubly qualified homicide, characterized by futile reasons and exposing the lives of others to danger. During the court case, the defendant’s defense argued that he acted in self -defense. However, he had evidence that Guaranho was the first to make the shots. Marcelo, after being hit, managed to retaliate, but was also beaten by others present at the party.
Judge Michelle Pacheco Cintra Stadler issued the sentence after the judges’ deliberation. Guaranho’s defense tried to use a judge’s statements that suggested the possibility of self -defense, but this argument was not enough to reverse the conviction. The decision reaffirms the severity of the act committed and the liability of the defendant.
