Brazilian Influencer Killed in Front of Her Dad One Week After Leaving Prison.. EVELLYN DANTAS

Brazilian influencer Evellyn Lima Dantas, 21, was killed outside her home in Mãe do Rio, Pará, on September 16, 2026, just one week after being released from custody. Police say two armed men entered the home, restrained her father and forced Evellyn outside before shooting her. Before escaping, the attackers allegedly painted the letters “TCP” on the property, potentially referring to the criminal faction Terceiro Comando Puro.

Evellyn had recently been investigated over alleged logistical support connected to the July murder of retired military-police sergeant Antônio Anildo Alves. She had also been arrested on a drug-trafficking allegation during the investigation. Police are now examining whether Evellyn’s murder was connected to the earlier case, retaliation, or organized crime. No motive has been officially established and investigators are still searching for her killers.
