Homicide in Brazil

A military police officer was detained during his own wife's wake in Greater São Paulo, Brazil. The man was under investigation for suspicion of his partner's suicide, but now he is suspected of having murdered her with a gunshot to the head. The case began when the woman was found dead and the initial investigation pointed to suicide. After further inquiries, the authorities changed the line of investigation and began considering the possibility of homicide. The suspect was detained while the victim's funeral was taking place, which reportedly surprised those present at the ceremony.
