“I am not homophobic and even less murderous”

The phones of several of those accused of Samuel Luiz’s crime were smoking that early morning of July 3, 2021. A few weeks ago, ABC published a series of Instagram conversations from one of the accused, Alejandro Freire, aka “Freire,” who , in a conversation with a friend, named Diego Montaña and Kaio Amaral as the perpetrators of the fatal beating: “It was Kaio, a few kicks, very serious.” And this Thursday, during one of the trial hearings, one of the investigators revealed messages that Kaio himself had sent via social networks to, according to this police officer, try to “whitewash” his image: “I have nothing to do with it, the images will prove me right, I am not homophobic, even less a murderer”.
