The controversy surrounding the girl’s pregnancy arose after the publication of the article by the Interception website in partnership with Catarinas. The initial report is that the mother would have gone to the university hospital in Florianopolis, but the institution did not because the pregnancy was already at 22 weeks at the time.

The family went to court, which excluded the girl from family life and at first did not sanction the procedure. After the aftermath, the Federal Public Ministry recommended that the hospital have an abortion this week.

Also during the week there was new information on the case. That the rape suspect is a 13-year-old boy who lives with a girl in his house.
