The digital influencer and lawyer was arrested this Thursday (May 21, 2026) in an operation by the Public Ministry of São Paulo and the Civil Police against suspicion of money laundering by the Capital’s Primeiro Comando. The court also ordered arrests against Marco Herbas Camacho, known as Marcola, appointed leader of the faction, his relatives and the group’s financial operators.
Operation Vérnix investigates the use of a cargo carrier based in Presidente Venceslau (SP) as a front company. According to the investigation, the structure would have been used to move money from the PCC leadership and transfer amounts to Marcola’s family and third parties. The information comes from the journalist, from .
Deolane had spent the last few weeks in Rome, Italy. Her name was included in the Interpol Red Diffusion, but she returned to Brazil on Wednesday (May 20). Agents carry out search and seizure warrants at addresses linked to the influencer, including her home, in Barueri (SP).
In addition to Deolane, Everton de Souza, known as Player, was arrested. He is appointed as the organization’s financial operator. There are also warrants against Alejandro Camacho, Marcola’s brother, and against his nephews Paloma Sanches Herbas Camacho and Leonardo Alexsander Ribeiro Herbas Camacho. Paloma would be in Spain, and Leonardo, in Bolivia, according to the investigation.
Marcola and Alejandro Camacho are already detained at the Brasília Federal Penitentiary and will be notified of the preventive detention order.
The court also ordered property and financial blockades. Here are the main targets of the measures:
- 39 vehicles valued at more than R$8 million;
- R$ 357.5 million in financial blocks of those investigated;
- R$27 million in the name of Deolane Bezerra.
The investigation began in 2019, after the seizure of notes and manuscripts from 2 prisoners at Penitentiary 2 of Presidente Venceslau. The material cited internal orders from the faction, contacts with high-ranking members and mentions of violent actions against public servants.
One of the excerpts mentioned a “carrier woman”which would have collected addresses of public agents. From this, investigators began to investigate the relationship between a cargo company and the PCC.
In 2021, the Lado a Lado operation identified financial transactions considered incompatible, unsupported asset growth and use of the transport company as the faction’s financial arm. The seizure of the cell phone of Ciro César Lemos, identified as the central operator of the scheme, opened an investigation into transfers to a nationally renowned digital influencer.
According to the investigation, images of deposits to Deolane and Everton accounts were found on Ciro’s device, who is on the run. The investigation states that the influencer had personal and business ties with one of the transport company’s ghost managers.
Investigators say that Deolane received R$1,067,505 in fractional deposits below R$10,000 from 2018 to 2021. Almost 50 deposits to two of her companies were also identified, totaling R$716,000.
The police claim to have not found services provided as a lawyer that would justify the transfers. For Justice, there are signs of suspicious movements, risk of flight, concealment of assets and possibility of interference in the investigation.
