About: investigate complaints and take action in cases of child sexual abuse
On February 19, as soon as I received the news of the headline that shocked all of Brazil — that a 35-year-old man was considered the husband of a 12-year-old child — I exposed it; it took on national proportions and I immediately spoke with Matheus so we could have that meeting to actually see what measures could be taken.
- Neutral
About: initiate administrative proceedings against investigated magistrates
He told me that an administrative proceeding has already been initiated.
- Neutral
About: remove magistrates from office as administrative punishment
The result of this punishment could be removal from office.
We know... that it generates an absurd outrage, especially among fathers, mothers, all of us, because the case is extremely atypical.
- Neutral
About: combat pedophilia
It is a mother who knew what was happening, a 35-year-old man who had sexual relations with a 12-year-old child — in other words, it is pedophilia; the law is very clear about this.
About: investigate and punish child abusers
He used drugs in front of that child; there was even an exchange of providing basic food baskets, benefits to that mother, in a way that obviously created an alienation in that... in that child, that victim, and we need, obviously, to take measures.
About: reverse judicial decisions that reduce accountability in child abuse cases
And this appellate judge, who was the rapporteur of this case, another appellate judge from that panel voted in agreement, and another appellate judge was totally opposed to this case, but with a majority of votes this was passed on and is now going to the higher instance; I hope this is reversed.
- Neutral
About: convict perpetrators of child sexual abuse
But the truth is that, in the first instance, both the mother and this criminal were sentenced to nine years in prison.
About: investigate controversial judicial decisions and hold their authors accountable
So, what happened for this appellate judge to give such a different, absurd decision, legally speaking?
About: reexamine judicial decisions in child abuse cases
And here I'm not, as a legislative representative, coming to confront judicial decisions, but I am fully convinced that within the law there are many divergences and legal theses, and this one does not fit into any of them.
There is no place in a judicial decision for a judge to claim that it is a normality in the community.
Well, in my community, where I was also born, there are children who are enslaved by drug trafficking, for example.
You wouldn't refrain from convicting those criminals just because it's 'normal' in the community.
So this is an unprecedented absurdity.
About: adopt harsher penalties for serious crimes
In my view, as a human being, as a deputy, as a father, I would ask for an even harsher punishment.
About: administratively and criminally punish those who endorse abuses
Even harsher, because let's be honest, if the person who committed this abuse was sentenced to nine years, what consequences should be suffered by the one who endorsed this abuse?
That's the question the population is asking right now.
- Neutral
About: investigate abuse allegations related to the appellate judge
And I also brought some new facts to the president of the Court of Justice, which concern that, shortly after this case was publicized, a nephew of that appellate judge alleged a supposed abuse as well when he was a child.
And in the comments you can also hear another woman...
who said that she was also abused while working at that appellate judge's house.
About: punish magistrates for involvement in child sexual abuse
In other words, he does need to be punished.
Matheus also brought me another thing I didn't know about that same appellate judge, that he had been declared unfit for work by UFOP, but was still receiving that salary.
In other words, disability retirement — but he was receiving it for how many years?
Thirteen years.
About: remove from office and require restitution of funds by magistrates who committed irregularities
Thirteen years of UFOP salary and yet he was working there on the panel of the ninth chamber; in other words, for me he must be punished under the rigor of the law: he should be removed from office and return the money he received during those 13 years.
About: increase penalties for sexual crimes against children
And for me, now I'm speaking here as Nicolas, without involving the court, without involving anyone else, this judge should receive an even more severe punishment, because there is no way someone can normalize such an absurd decision.
So that's what we did here today and I really hope that this case does not become normalized in our country, because it opens a terrible precedent for the children of our country.
About: create a national registry of pedophiles
Moreover, to this day the national registry of pedophiles has still not been implemented.
About: create a national registry of pedophiles
We approved it; it was sanctioned, and so far President Lula has not implemented it.
In other words, it's no longer in my hands.
About: adopt harsher penalties for serious crimes
What I had to do as a federal deputy I did, which was to vote, to intercede for the increase... of the penalties for heinous crimes.
- Neutral
About: adopt harsher penalties for serious crimes
PT and PSOL voted against.
I don't want to bring that up; it's unrelated to this case, okay?
I don't want to polarize this case between right and left, because this particular case is, honestly, for me, a human issue.
Anyone who sides with the criminal — a 35-year-old man who was using a 12-year-old child, using drugs in front of her and buying off her mother with food baskets — honestly, to me, has lost all sense of sanity.
So I don't want to polarize this case and I am not doing that.
So, what am I answering you?
About: adopt harsher penalties for serious crimes
In the specific case of measures that the Federal Chamber can take, we did so, which was to increase the penalties for heinous crimes.
About: ensure enforcement of prison sentences
For me, a guy who commits a crime like this should not get out of prison.
About: reincarcerate those convicted of child sexual abuse
The only thing I ask and the focus here today is punishment for this criminal — that he return to prison — including the mother, who was complicit in this, and also for this judge, speaking here now institutionally,
