According to the witness, who is Bruno's 17-year-old cousin, Samudio was kidnapped in Rio and taken to Bruno's cottage in the town of Esmeralda in neighboring Minas Gerais state. On June 9, she was reportedly taken to a house in a nearby town, where she was beaten and strangled to death by Marcos Aparecido Santos, a former police officer and Bruno's friend. According to the teenager, he, Bruno and his ground guard Luiz Henrique Romao all watched while Samudio was killed.
