Bruno was sentenced to 22 years in March 2013 after a court heard the evidence against him. The initial ruling was a ‘closed prison sentence’ though that was converted to ‘semi-open’ in 2019, meaning that Bruno could work during the day as long as he returned to prison every night.

The 38-year-old was then told that he was able to sleep in his bed due to the inadequate facilities at Varginha Prison, as long as he remained at home between 8 pm and 6 am. Having proven he was capable of that, Bruno was granted parole by the Rio de Janeiro Court of Justice in January.

Samudio threatened to take legal action against Bruno after he refused to claim paternity of the child or pay any support, though Bruno hit back by telling his ex-mistress that he would kill her and that she didn’t know what he was ‘capable of’, whilst she was being held at gunpoint.

Months later, Samudio was lured into a car and driven to Bruno’s home where she was beaten by a gang – which included Bruno’s wife as well as a former policeman. Following six days of torture, the 25-year-old was then strangled to death in front of her son before being cut into pieces and fed to dogs, according to reports. Samudio’s disappearance soon hit the media as search parties began trying to find the actress, prompting Bruno’s cousin to hand himself into the police and explain what had happened and how he was paid by Bruno for his part in the murder.
