A Brazilian mother has been acquitted after admitting to k+lling her boyfriend, saying she acted to protect her young daughter from alleged ab¥se.
Erica Pereira da Silveria Vicente told authorities the incident happened in Minas Gerais after she discovered disturbing messages her partner, Everton Amaro de Silva, had sent to her 11-year-old daughter.
Reports say she rushed home after hearing her child’s distress and intervened. Prosecutors argued the act was premeditated, claiming she had earlier given him medication before att@cking him.
Investigators later traced evidence back to her home, where she also handed over the w+apon used. The mom allegedly spiked de Silva’s drink with Klonopin, a medication used to treat seizures, and then st@bbed and clubbed him while he was unconscious, according to prosecutors.
