In
an unfortunate incident, a mother who couldn't stand the thought of
finding out that her son is gay has stabbed him to death.
Tatiana Lozano Pereira admitted stabbing her son to death because he is gay
A Brazilian mother stabbed her 17-year-old son to death because he
was gay after two thugs she hired to kill him failed to do so, police
said, reports Dailymail.
The woman identified as Tatiana Lozano Pereira, 32, admitted to
killing her son Itaberli Lozano in Cravinhos, Sao Paulo. It was gathered
that before stabbing his son, the mother had rejected him because of
his sexual orientation.
They had an explosive row at Christmas after which Itaberli moved
in with his grandmother Pereira pretended to forgive him and, on
December 29, urged him to return home.
However she had secretly hired hitmen Miller da Silva Barissa, 18,
and Victor Roberto da Silva, 19, to kill her son. She hid them inside
her home under orders to attack him when he entered.
But when the men couldn't kill the son, she grabbed a kitchen knife
and stabbed her son to death, according to Helton Tosti Renz, the
police officer in charge of the investigation.
According to local reports, Pereira and her husband, Alex Pereira,
30, the victim's stepfather, then took her son's body to an abandoned
area and burned it.
The victim's paternal grandmother reported his disappearance to police.
Officers became suspicious because Tatiana had not reported him
missing herself and seemed surprisingly indifferent about his
disappearance.
His charred remains were eventually found on January 7, in a nearby field. Police also seized two knives from the house.
Authorities said the mother confessed to the killing during a police interrogation.
She also implicated the hired thugs for their part but maintained
her husband was innocent. Police said he would only be charged over
concealment of the body.
