Investigation remains open with new hypotheses

Testimonies and reconstruction of the case

PC’s ex-girlfriend stated in her statement that she tried to prevent the YouTuber’s death, but was unable to do so. He also said he asked for help after leaving the apartment. A neighbor said she found the influencer and cut the belt to try to help him.

Defense denies responsibility

The ex-girlfriend’s defense claims that there is no evidence to hold her responsible for the case.

Context

PC Siqueira was one of the pioneers in producing content on YouTube in Brazil and also worked as a TV presenter.

Before his death, he was even investigated on suspicion of involvement with images of child sexual abuse, after the leak of private messages in 2020. Subsequent forensic examinations, however, did not find this type of material in the seized devices. The influencer has always denied the accusations.

With the death, the case was closed without trial, due to the extinction of punishment, that is, without a definitive conclusion from the Court on the suspicions.
