According to Delegate Vinicius Ferreira, during the investigation, the teacher said he was misinterpreted and the students took the lines out of context.

With the end of the investigation, the police process passes to the prosecutor’s office, which can file a complaint. “There is a possibility that he will also answer before a jury for the crime of inciting, inciting or facilitating the suicide or self-harm of a minor victim for speaking in class,” the delegate explains.

The civil police charged the teacher with condoning a crime and driving to suicide. DPCAMI continues to investigate other hate crimes such as racism, xenophobia and religious intolerance.

In addition to the arrest, the teacher is also subject to precautionary measures, such as suspension of public function as a teacher, and may not communicate with or approach students or the educational institution.

Parents and students condemned hate statements by a high school teacher two days after the attack on a kindergarten in Blumenau. The professional would praise the crime during the lesson and the students wrote it down.

The video of the statements was sent to the ND+ portal team, who decided not to publish it. In it, the teacher supports what happened in Blumenau and suggests acts of violence. The student reaction is riot. “Absurd,” says one of the students.

As reported by other students, in addition to this aggressive speech, this teacher has already acted with aggressive postures several times and was even ready to attack a student and turn the desk over another student. The teacher would also boast about the attacks.

In addition to physical aggression, name-calling and verbal abuse will also be constant. One student claims that the teacher has already assumed that the student committed suicide. “They say that he did nothing and wasted oxygen,” he comments. He is even responsible for instigating or assisting suicide or self-mutilation.

“Only those who go to classes with him know how ignorant he is, the only thing he does is sow hatred,” says the student.
