Subsequently, there was an agreement between the two that the victim would bring around 23 or 24 head of cattle to the suspect's farm and pay him a monthly amount so that he could take care of the animals. So there was a relationship of trust there." Walter dos Santos de Oliveira had been missing since May 20th. The body was found this Thursday morning (11), inside the property of one of the suspects who indicated the location of the body to the police, in the rural area of ​​São José da Mata, district of Campina Grande. "Initially, he tried to deny his participation, but then, when we confronted the technical evidence, with the media that was extracted from his own cell phone, he realized that it would be better to collaborate to try. He indicated the approximate location of where the body would have been buried and then, with the help of the Fire Department's kennel, we managed to locate it", reported delegate Francisco Júnior. The delegate also stated that the Civil Police believe that the crime was premeditated with the intention of appropriating the victim's assets. “The criminals were already planning the death with the clear intention of killing the victim and stealing his assets, both the cattle and the truck and other possible belongings.” To do this, the suspect had the help of his son-in-law, the second suspect who is under arrest, and lured the victim to the property with the excuse that there was a person interested in buying the cattle. There are still no details on how the victim was killed, and, due to the advanced state of decomposition in which the corpse was found, the cause of death can only be concluded after examination. According to the investigation, the victim intended to sell the animals. The suspect then planned with his son-in-law, who was also arrested, to kill the retired police officer and take possession of the herd. Also according to delegate Francisco Júnior, to lure the victim to the property, the suspect informed the victim that he had found a possible buyer for the cattle. The delegate also stated that the retiree's body was hidden approximately 1km from the house of the arrested suspect, who is identified as the perpetrator, close to a pasture area where the victim's cattle grazed.
