At 5 A.M. on Palm Sunday in Rio de Janeiro, the former Chief of Rio de Janeiro Civil Police Rivaldo Barbosa, Brazilian Congressman Chiquinho Brazão, and his brother, Rio state auditor general Domingos Brazão, were all arrested by Brazilian federal police for plotting to assassinate Rio City Councilwoman Marielle Franco and her driver Anderson Gomes in 2018.
Just days after the murder, Barbosa told reporters, “We will not rest while this crime is not solved,” but now Barbosa stands accused of being one of the murderers himself.
