A tragic incident has taken place in Brazil, where a pregnant teenager, 16-year-old Emilly Azevedo Sena, was found dead after being missing for two days. Local police reported that her body was discovered buried in a backyard in Cuiabá, after she was lured there under false pretenses.
Police Chief Caio Albuquerque shared details during a press conference, stating that Emilly was nine months pregnant when she went missing. They confirmed that a woman has been arrested in connection with the case.
The suspect reportedly had a miscarriage six months earlier and had pretended to still be expecting a baby. She led Emilly to believe she had baby clothes to donate, which is how they met through social media. Suspicion arose when this woman brought a newborn to a local hospital, claiming it was her child. However, hospital staff noticed she appeared not to have recently given birth, prompting an investigation.
Authorities quickly connected the dots, which resulted in the discovery of Emilly’s body, showing signs of violent harm. The suspect is facing serious charges, including homicide and concealing a body.
As the investigation continues, police are looking into whether anyone else was involved in this crime. Emilly’s family is mourning her death, with her mother describing her as not just a daughter, but also a dear friend. This heartbreaking situation highlights the serious issues surrounding pregnancy and trust in social interactions.
