Popular Post Social Media Posted April 18 Popular Post Share Posted April 18 The bizarre incident in Brazil where Érika de Souza Vieira attempted to take her deceased uncle to a bank to sign off on a loan has shocked many. Bank clerks quickly became suspicious as the uncle, Paulo Roberto Braga, appeared lethargic and unwell. It was later discovered that Braga was actually deceased. Vieira was arrested and charged with violating a corpse and attempted theft through fraud. Police officers remarked on the surreal nature of the situation, with visible signs of livor mortis leaving no doubt about Braga's state. Footage of the incident went viral on social media, sparking widespread disbelief and astonishment. Brazilian journalists also expressed incredulity at the audacity of the attempted fraud, with some describing it as beyond belief. Vieira's lawyer, Ana Carla de Souza Correa, maintains her client's innocence, claiming that Braga was alive when they arrived at the bank and suggesting there are witnesses who can attest to this. However, police are continuing their investigation, including verifying Vieira's relationship to Braga and examining the circumstances surrounding the incident. Police chief Fábio Luiz Souza reiterated the evidence indicating Braga's death, stating that anyone who sees the footage can recognize that he was deceased. 2024-04-19 Source 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post retarius Posted April 19 Popular Post Share Posted April 19 This is a fantastic story. I don't know about you but I would never have thought of doing this. It's brave, imaginative, and daring....but also crass, stupid and tasteless. Just shows you how difficult it can be to guess the thoughts of others. Imagine getting this lovely woman in a bank. She look like she's helping him , but she's there to rob his money. Shoulda gone to SpecSavers. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayC Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 From the source article: “I don’t think he’s well. He doesn’t look well at all,” remarked one distrustful employee". No flies on that employee which is probably more than can be said for one of the other actors in this scenario. I know, I know. I'm a bad person. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bradiston Posted April 19 Popular Post Share Posted April 19 Cue the parrot sketch. I watched the whole video of this insane event. The clerk really was extremely mild in her reaction, commenting he doesn't look well. I really was hoping the niece would come out with no, no, he's just resting. Ghoulish humour. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't take long for US politics to enter a thread that is neither about the US or politics. Hopefully the new merger will set rules banning posters that bring US politics into threads that are not about it. 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
