#330: She Exposed Famous Soccer Player, Disappeared, Allegedly FED TO HIS DOGS

25:56But since they were not married or in a long-term committed relationship, the law did not apply to her.

26:04How does that make sense? Exactly. Yeah.

26:18now at this point after she had submitted all of her paperwork to the police reporters found out what was going on they came to the police station she files this request for this restraining order it gets denied and all of this is now becoming more and more public because when you file illegal proceedings like this, it's very easy for them to get out. And the rejection of the restraining order only pushed Aliza to go harder with the press. The police aren't protecting her. The law's not protecting her. I mean, maybe the public could protect her. They did the exact opposite. The public did not protect Aliza.

26:52Bruno issued an official statement. He held a press conference and the soccer player said, it's not the first time that Aliza has made up lies to try and harm my reputation. Last time she didn't prove anything and she's not going to prove anything this time either because she has made this whole story up. That is why I will only be addressing the situation through my lawyer who will be taking all possible measures to keep her from further hurting my image. She doesn't accept the fact that I don't want any sort of relationship with her. I won't give this this female the 15 minutes of fame that she's looking for.

27:28Bruno goes on to give his version of the events that night What he believes is the night of the so-called kidnapping He said Elisa was blowing up his phone What's new? She's just calling non-stop Begging him to meet up with her So he gets up in the middle of the night Disturbing his peace Goes to see her at 1am Out of the kindness of his soul He shows up and she's immediately screaming her head off Shouting at him in the middle of the residential street So of course he's trying to calm her down And, you know, at the end of the day, he's a pro athlete. He can't have people know this. This is scandalous.

28:00Why is she screaming at him? He's like, hello, you're going to wake up the residents. But she won't relax. So he has no choice but to take her to his house where they stay up all night having this long conversation. He thought, OK, good. This is going to resolve the issue. Aliza fell asleep in his house and left the next morning, walked straight to the police station and came up with this insane story about how he kidnapped her, drugged her, held her hostage, tried to kill her. He stated that he absolutely did not do any of that. And he absolutely was not the father of her child. She's just trying to get money out of him.

28:33He claims that Elisa is lying about sleeping together multiple times. He stated it was just one time and it was in the middle of an orgy. Okay. So yeah, we did have relations, but she had relations with a ton of men that day. So maybe she's pregnant, but how are we sure it's mine? He's basically saying she slept with a bunch of men that night, which I don't know where this logic even is because that's not how conception works. Like it doesn't just cancel out. But Bruno's teammates and his fans were nodding their heads. What's wild is Bruno is accused of being a kidnapper, a hostage taker, and an attempted murderer.

29:10But his teammates were joking with him in the locker room. They were slapping him with towels and saying, you ate the same dish as all those other guys, but you're the one that got indigestion.

29:22and if Bruno his teammates his soccer club wasn't taking this seriously maybe Elisa was a gold digger maybe she was a liar that's what the public thought she's an opportunist she's a status hunter which means she's free game people started absolutely ripping into Elisa digging up her past what she does for work calling her all sorts of names hyper fixating on the idea that all women want is to get pregnant by a wealthy man and use all their money. Nobody believed her. Elisa needed protection and instead she was in even more danger now. She could see the public turning on her. Headlines were shifting from goalie Bruno accused of kidnapping woman to salacious gross titles about what her sinister intentions must be with a stunt like this.

30:09Bruno's soccer player mistress's scandalous past careers. It felt like Aliza had a gun to her head and she's telling everyone, look at me, look at me. And nobody's looking at her. Nobody's listening to her. They're all standing in the same room as her, talking about her, laughing about her, and no one will see the loaded weapon pointed directly at her. It's like a nightmare. She just wants to scream, can someone help me? But it felt like everyone was just saying to her face, but you're just a porn star. They accused her of being one of those girls that just could not wait for a rich man to come around and poke some holes into protection so that she could get pregnant.

30:50So Elisa turned around to the police and said, drug test me, please. Just test me. You're going to see those very specific termination pills in my system. A lot of it. The police would run the blood test. The results would take months to come out. They were all positive for those drugs. But by that point, it was too late. Aliza would already be missing. And four women's lives all revolving around Bruno would just come crashing down. Aliza, the mother of Bruno's child, would be presumed dead. Ingrid, Bruno's fiance, would consider calling off the engagement because he cheated on her and got another woman pregnant and now she's missing.

31:31Diane, Bruno's wife, would be taking care of a child that is not hers. And Fernanda, Bruno's girlfriend, would be in prison for her role in Aliza's disappearance. Back before Bruno was a pro soccer player, Bruno was just a shitty husband. One day after soccer practice, this is before he's a pro athlete, so he's making zero money at this stage. He's just training. He's just hanging out with the boys. He's trying to get signed with a club that will hopefully pay him a large fixed salary, but nothing's guaranteed. He comes home from practice and he throws a set of keys down on the table. His young wife, Diane, is like, what is that?

32:10Our new car. She looks at him. What on earth are you talking about? We don't have money for a car. And if you think this is one of those cute moments where he's like, babe, it's because I got signed. It's not. She's like, we don't have. Yeah, we do, honey. We had our savings. He used their family savings that Diane worked her ass off that was supposed to be for their future family. He used it to purchase a car. Diane was so tired. She was so tired of working all day, doing this all day, all night, night shifts, day shifts, nonstop work. She's so tired to even argue right now with this man. So she grabs his hand, drags him into the kitchen, and just opens up the fridge door and waves her hand up and down.

32:57Look, look, we have no food. We have nothing to eat. Bruno looked inside and there was a half of a bottle of water in there. That's it. Bruno turned to his wife and said, you're not being a great wife right now. I don't really feel your support for my happiness. wow Bruno absolutely loved that car it was the only thing in his life that made him happy I mean clearly he loved it more than he loved his wife he loved the looks that he got when he would show up to practice he would park in the lot hey I thought you always rode the bus not anymore the only times Bruno didn't drive his car and took the bus again was because he didn't have gas money and Diane would not give it to him but Diane didn't leave because for one she was in love with Bruno.

33:48I mean, she met Bruno when she was 12. Bruno was 14. They were childhood best friends. They didn't get married until she was 18 and he was 20. But still, this is her childhood, sweetheart. They grew up together. She loved him. But also because he was kind of an investment. He's going to be a pro athlete. I mean, she didn't marry him because of that. She loved him, but she was very excited for him to contribute one day to the family as well. because for years, all she's doing is contributing. At this point, the couple had their first daughter already. They would have another one, and Diane is living like a single mom.

34:21Bruno would go off to practice. Diane would be in charge of childcare, but also making sure that there's food in the pantry, making sure that they had leftover money every month for diapers. Bruno would not even lift a finger. She was paying for everything, house bills, everyone's food, clothes, transportation, gas money. I mean, one of her jobs, she would write essays for students in the local college. $2 per essay. She would spend all day doing as many as 10 essays. And at the time, all of them needed to be turned in handwritten, not on a computer. And they're all on the same subject. So she would need to come up with a different perspective each time and then switch up the handwriting so that the professors wouldn't suspect anything.

34:58And she would still have a job. And because soccer players and most pro athletes are required to have balanced diets. I couldn't find exact stats on non-pros, just training in soccer, but one club in Germany stated that every week the team goes through 66 pounds of grass-fed meat, 44 pounds of wild-caught fish, 15 liters of milk, 18 pounds of yogurt, and around 180 eggs, all organic. Obviously, Diane can't afford that. But she does home cook every single one of his meals, spent all of her extra money on getting high quality vegetables, proteins and grains because Bruno uses his body for work. And in return, he promised her, babe, I'm going to play in the World Cup one day.

35:47The prize money rewarded to the winning team of the World Cup at the time would be anywhere between 30 to 35 million dollars to be split amongst the team. And I think athletes are chasing a high, if you will. They call it the zone. A lot of them talk about it and they say they can't even quite put into words what it feels like. The feeling is very hard to grasp, they say. And there's levels to it. Like I know for me, I'm like, yeah, I've been in the zone. It's a state of flow. But I'm sure for pro athletes, it's a whole nother level. Like we're not talking about the same zone. Being on the soccer field, they describe it as it doesn't happen each time.

36:23Even if you're a pro, you're not in the zone for every game. You're not even in the zone once in every game. It happens once a blue moon. And when it happens, there's just no words to describe. You're locked in. There's only a small group of people that state that this is the true zone. Everything else is just hyper-focused. The zone, you don't hear or see anything else but the game. The ball, it's like hyper-fixated. Your eyes are fixated on it. It's almost you lose connection with your body in a sense. You're moving and you're doing all the right things, but it's almost muscle memory. It's not even it's an it's not intentional.

37:02You lose feeling of your thirstiness, what body part aches, that sore ankle that you have, that injury that you're pushing. You lose all of that. You are completely unaffected by the environment. It's like your brain is floating and your body is just a vehicle. that's the zone that Bruno needs to get into right now standing on the green grass in front of the goalie net because this is the playoff games that decides who is going to be elected to be on the Brazil's national team for the World Cup so Brazil's got a bunch of different soccer clubs and they're looking for the best of the best to fill their national team as the goalie and the captain of the Flamengo team, which is one of the top three teams in Brazil.

37:46Okay, top four, some people say. They've got like 40 million fans. This is not like a small little soccer club. This is a massive club. You say he's the captain? Yeah. Wow, so he's a big deal. Big deal. He made it. He made it, yeah. Wow. So Bruno, I mean, he made it, but when you go to the World Cup, you make it internationally. a lot of people say that a huge goal is and i don't want to say this is for everyone this is what our researchers told us and one of them actually resides in brazil and she said that when you make the brazil national team you attend the world cups something of that caliber then the next big step would be signing to a european team because not because they're any better or any sort of you know uppityness about it but european teams get a lot of that celebrity press and once you become that celebrity soccer player the brand ambassadorships that's where the money is i see that's the that's a natural progression yes so he's made it but he's looking at a bigger goal and this game was the make it or break it if he could win this game he could be part of the world cup he knew what people were saying i mean despite all of the scandals going on that one girl gold digger girl that was talking about this weird kidnapping hoax, whatever, right?

39:06It was a little bit of a bump in the road, but he still had a chance at this. He's still on the team. He's still allowed to play. Everybody's rooting for him. They're screaming his name because at the end of the day, they don't care what Bruno does in his private life. As long as he brings home that World Cup title, that's all that matters. Bruno's eyes are fixated on the ball. He just has to make sure it doesn't get past him and into the net. Don't let anything or anyone pass him. That's it. But it's really not that easy. It's really not that easy to focus on the game when back at home, you've got someone locked up and held hostage.

39:45Bruno was told as a kid, there's only three ways for him to get out of poverty, become a singer, become a drug dealer, or a soccer player. The minute Bruno stepped out onto the field as a kid, everyone's like, yeah, no, you're not going to make it. He's tall, you know, which goalkeepers are usually the tallest on the team because they need to be able to reach up and block the balls. But he's kind of spaghetti noodle tall in the sense that he was very thin to the point that people thought he looked frail, like the wind would blow and he would lose balance. But he was good. There was no denying it.

40:15I mean, a country of kids who think that they will be the next soccer prodigy, he had something. He just did whatever it took to try and focus on soccer, sometimes he would have to walk to practice because he couldn't even afford a bus ticket when he was a kid, which at the time the ticket would have been like 20 cents. He would have been the only kid in practice that didn't have food. He didn't have any food from home to bring. His teammates would ask, hey, are you not eating? Are you not hungry? And he would sit there next to him drenched in sweat and say, um, yeah, not hungry. There was just no way.

40:45I mean, they had been running around in the hot sun for hours. He's starving. They're all starving. So these kids, they would look down, break off a piece of their sandwich and give it to Bruno. Maybe they kind of felt bad for the guy. I mean, Bruno did have a bit of a strange upbringing. He was raised by his grandma, Donna Estella. And because when Bruno was three, three days old, not three years old, three days old, fresh out of the hospital, his two parents, they look at each other and they're like, okay, let's just eeny meeny moe this. Okay, they didn't actually say that. They might as well have.

41:17They just decided to pick one brother, one of their kids, one of their sons to take and leave the other one with grandma. They did not take Bruno. It's said that his parents only came back into his life once he was a pro soccer player, which is kind of sad when you think about it. But that's not the only people either in his life. It's said that a lot of Bruno's relationships in life changed once he became a pro soccer player. he started hating his wife Diane the one who supported him since they were like 12 and 14 he felt like you don't look like a soccer player's wife you don't look like a pro athlete wife so he starts very publicly cheating on her most athletes they might at least try to hide it because at the end of the day they're public figures but Bruno he would just invite his girlfriends to the games to sit front row take them out to restaurants to eat regardless of if paparazzi or any of these people were going to show up or not.

42:16He would bring them to his marital home. Some of them stayed in the house long term if Diane was at a different home. Or if Diane was around and upset, he would fulfill his husbandly duty and bring his girlfriends to a hotel instead and stay there with them. After months of this, Bruno would sit down and he would have these very dramatic moments, melodramatic moments, where he would think to himself, my life is so hard as a soccer player. pro athlete everyone wants to praise me love me be my friend date me because i'm rich and famous he just wished that there was someone who wasn't with him for the money and then he'd be like oh yeah diane and then he would just run back to her and promise that he would never cheat on her again and he wouldn't for the rest of the day bruno also believed punching his wife was a normal thing at one of these parties so the soccer players were allegedly known to throw group activity parties yeah where a bunch of adults would come the the pro athletes would be there they would invite a bunch of women and they would all kind of pile on each other well they're at one of these parties when they hear this really loud crashing noise outside kind of like a car accident but then it happens again and it's like boom and now the people at the party they're like scrambling to put on their clothes run outside see what the commotion's about and they see this woman completely red in the face bat in her hand swinging at one of the soccer players cars bruno runs outside and is trying to talk to this woman it's one of the other players wives but she's screaming at him she's not listening she knows that her husband is in there cheating on her the situation escalates to the point where she finds bruno's car and she's got the bat in her hand and she's ready to swing on Bruno's car now.

44:02So he runs over and he's like, not my car, you won't. He's up in her face, basically begging her to do something to his car. It's giving, try me. The other party goers rush out, try to defuse the situation. And eventually the woman's husband, Adriano, the other teammate rushes out, grabs his wife, picks her up, throws her over his shoulder in front of everybody and ends up tying her to a tree. and just the whole incident became a major scandal for the soccer club i mean reporters even went to bruno to ask him about the whole woman tied to the tree situation and he just stared at the journalist bruno and he said well who here is married and hasn't once had a fight with their wife or even threw some punches no one should judge or a medal in a married couple's fights it's not your place somehow this did not end his career diane gave birth to two girls during her marriage with Bruno.

44:57Not even a year after giving birth to their second child, probably still in the midst of postpartum, just finally feeling a little bit normal, Diane was going to celebrate her birthday. She's at home, notices Bruno's phone on the kitchen counter, and ding, a text message comes in. She walks over. It's from a woman named Ingrid, and she's asking, what time will you be home? Diane's thinking home? Like, that's a really bizarre text to get. She grabs his phone, shoves it in his face. What is this? Shameless Bruno just straight up admits, oh yeah, I've been living with another woman. Her name is Ingrid.

45:33And I mean, I'm not going to make any excuses like all the times that I said that I was out doing other things at practice. No, I was at this woman's house. And by the way, we're engaged. He's still married to Diane, but he proposed to a woman named Ingrid. Diane packed her bags and went to go stay at his ranch house. She was done with Bruno in the romantic sense. I mean, the two of them would actually stay very close and they were not legally divorcing anytime soon. But Bruno was very happy with his new single status. And so was Maka, aka Macaroni. That's his nickname. Literally, that's the translation.

46:12So Maka was more than excited to be the only constant in Bruno's life. Maka has been part of Bruno's entourage since they were wee little trainees, way before they were pro athletes. Maka is Bruno's childhood best friend. They go way back, further than even Diane. Maka's a strange guy, though. A lot of people said he almost got too protective over Bruno. Like, he was that protective friend that looked jealous or annoyed if Bruno ever had other friends joking with him. Like, he'd be like, what's so funny? What's the inside joke? Why don't I know? Friends said, yeah, Maka would die and kill for Bruno.

46:46It's a little weird. He even got a branding of sorts for Bruno. Okay, it's not a branding, but it's basically a tattoo on his back that reads, Bruno and Maka, the friendship that not even time will destroy. True love. What do you mean? Like in the word, just exactly verbatim? Verbatim. Bruno and Maka, the friendship that not even time will destroy. True love. Yeah, would you get that for your friend? That's weird. It's a lot. Before Bruno was a pro athlete, Maka was married and had children of his own. so he had his own family priorities, but he would still secretly support Bruno by giving him a portion of his pay every single month.

47:25The only other person that might compete for Bruno's attention was his nephew Jay. Jay was 17 years old. He was hiding out in Bruno's house. Jay had been a part of a drug trafficking gang and his main job was a transporter, so he would move drugs around. A bus driver for narcotics, if you will. Well, he lost a load, okay? The drug gang is trying to kill him. So he's hiding out in Bruno's house. He owes Bruno for taking him in while drug gangs are out for him. So Jay, Jay's willing to do just about anything to repay him for his, for his great gratitude that he feels. Jay's like, you want me to wash your car?

48:01I'll wash your car. You want me to run errands? I'll go do it right now. Whatever Bruno wants, Jay's gonna do it. Since we're talking about Bruno's inner circle, there's also Sergio. He's not really part of the main inner circle but he is bruno's cousin so we've got maca the childhood best friend with the tattoo jay the minor nephew and sergio the cousin that's kind of in and out of the circle they are all bruno's yes men and getting him into the world cup is not just bruno's big day they're thinking this is our big day all our work for bruno all of the running his dirty errands cleaning up after him lying for him covering for him it's gonna pay off when he gets to the world cup what year was this he was practicing for the 2012 world cup oh yes but they lost that game he didn't get picked no bruno had no chance in the world cup not that he would either way because he'd be in prison right after the game that he lost bruno called his friend and said i need a bmw but i need it to be bulletproof and have no GPS tracker is an odd request.

49:13Aliza wasn't allowed to talk to her mom growing up. Her dad wouldn't let her, which is strange considering her dad never wanted her in the first place. That's what's said. When Aliza's mom, Sonia, was pregnant with Aliza, she was so excited to tell her husband, Louise, like we're going to be parents now. He beat her and demanded she terminate. Sonia did not and Aliza was born. And because Sonia couldn't afford to take care of her alone. In this almost sad and twisted turn of events, Aliza ends up living with her dad instead of her mom and he wouldn't even let them see each other. That coupled with the poverty, the allegations that Aliza was essayed by her own father and quote sold to his friends to be used.

49:52I don't think anyone would have blamed Aliza for being very angry at her circumstances. But she wasn't. Maybe Aliza felt like against all odds, she was born and she survived because her mom did not terminate. And maybe the same could be said about Bruno Jr. Aliza's pregnancy was somehow not terminated when she was forced fed the 12 pills when she was held hostage. Now, a lot of people believe it's because we don't know for sure. The speculation is that those specific pills were supposed to be suppository pills physically entering the private part but instead they just made her orally take it or perhaps bruno had bought counterfeit pills but that doesn't make sense because the drug test came back positive and with or without bruno aliza was determined to be the parent that she wished that she had growing up baby bruno was born and aliza was i don't want to say because we don't want to speculate but a lot of moms report feeling a sense of purpose when they become moms and there's this whole controversy around this but a lot of people were upset with Aliza's naming of her baby people thought that she was being obnoxious and trying to incite drama by naming her child Bruno Jr.

51:08basically they felt like she's saying well if Bruno won't claim my child I'm gonna make it known to the world that this is his child one way or another which I don't know even saying that out loud I'm like, I don't know what the problem is. If that really is his child, the child that he's responsible for as well as the father. But like, I don't get it. But it was a whole thing. People were just finding anything to rip Elisa apart with. So she's trying to stay away from the press and preserve her safe space with her new baby, just focusing on being a mom. She would take her son on walks. She said that he was very, very quiet, very well behaved and really only makes a fuss when he's hungry which he eats super super well and whenever bruno senior the dad was playing uh the flamingos were playing on the tv she would turn it on and let him watch this was the man that basically tried to kill her but she still wanted her baby to know that he had a father and hoped that one day they would have a relationship

52:14And maybe it was happening. Bruno's entire attitude changed. Once he saw baby Bruno, this is his first son. Maybe something shifted in him. He's like, you know what? That's my baby. I regret being so horrendous to my baby. This is my baby. I'm looking at this baby. That's my baby. He even starts calling Aliza baby, being kind to her, offering to send her money. He started sending her$200 a month, which honestly is not enough to take care of a kid. And some months, Bruno wouldn't even send her money. A lot of brand endorsements were dropping Bruno and he was being used less and less on his team.

52:48But to Elisa, he's still trying. He even agreed to do a DNA test and promised to take full responsibility for baby Bruno if the child was indeed his. He said, if the baby's mine, I will give you an apartment. I will give you a bigger monthly support payment. Elisa was so relieved. At this point, she had been making no money. No one would hire her. she had to sell clothes any possessions that she had she sold it all for baby formula and diapers and he tells her you know what I feel bad I'm gonna bring you to Rio de Janeiro because they don't live in the same town I'm gonna bring you here I'm gonna book you a nice hotel and I'm gonna give you six thousand dollars in cash so that you can buy furniture and other things for the baby you just need to come here to Rio to pick it up because I'm busy she's a little hesitant she thought going to a different city to get cash from this guy who kidnapped me after everything that Bruno did, it's dangerous.

53:39But she really, really needed the money. She needed the money for survival. So she went. Now, the next series of events come from a confession from an involved party. A lot of the facts were verified through CCTV, hotel guest records, cell phone tower pings and witnesses. But some facts have not been verified and are still to this day debated. So take this with a grain of salt. The series of events moving forward have just been stated by one of the accomplices. But I am not stating that this is fact, nor is it the truth. I was not there. This is just what a lot of investigators and most netizens believe have happened.

54:16Aliza went to Rio to meet up with Bruno. But instead of Bruno coming to the hotel to meet up with her, she gets a call from Bruno's little tattooed henchman, the best friend that does all the dirty work, Maka. And he's like, hey, I'm going to pick you up from the hotel, take you to Bruno's apartment so he can give you the money. And maybe we'll take you to the apartment that you're going to move into. So get ready. Hotel CCTV shows Aliza walking out with baby Bruno. That is the last time she would be seen by anyone not involved in the crime because she walks out into the parking lot, spots Macca's car, which is just Bruno's Range Rover, opens up the backseat door, slips inside, closes the door behind her.

54:53Macca's in the driver's seat. She's in the back seat. She's thinking this is enough distance because she really doesn't like the guy. But she didn't know that Jay, the nephew, was hiding in the trunk. And this is a Range Rover, so the trunk is not an enclosed space. He pops up out of the trunk, jumps out, surprises Aliza, and grabs the handle of his gun and pistol whips her three times on the head. It is said that she had an open wound and was actively bleeding. Now, there was blood all over the car. The injury was severe enough that Aliza was not in a state where she could even hold her baby in her own arms.

55:26She was drifting in and out. She was in a lot of pain. Maka and Jay are looking at each other like, well, I don't think that was part of the plan. I feel like we were just supposed to get her to the apartment first. But oh, well, we're just gonna have to deal with it. So on the way there, they're like, we don't know what to do with this kid. Like she can't even take care of her own kid because that's how injured she is. But now there's just like a kid. Are we supposed to kill the kid or what? I don't know. So it's a weird situation. They call Bruno's girlfriend at the time fernanda so just to give you a recap bruno is still legally married to diane but separated she's living at the ranch house he's living in rio he's engaged to a woman named ingrid who he keeps out of all of this but he stays engaged to her he later marries her and he's got a girlfriend fernanda so they call the girlfriend and fernanda is like okay yeah i mean that's a little weird but i guess i'll come take care of this like random baby i don't know right she shows up and And it's claimed that Aliza did not know the severity of the situation.

56:24If this is true, she likely thought that Jay was young. He acted on his own accord. Hit her on the head because he got overexcited by this weird plan of like kidnapping her. But Bruno probably would beat him up when he gets home. Give Aliza the apartment and money and she would move on with her life. But right when Bruno gets home from his failed game. Because remember, she was being held hostage at his apartment while he's playing that playoff game. This is when he loses because he knows that Aliza is in his house. Head wound, head trauma, being held by Jay and Macca. Yeah. Oh, wow. So he comes home and he's in a pissy mood.

56:58He's got his bulletproof GPS plus BMW and he suggests, hey, let's go to the ranch house instead. It's like isolated. It's not an apartment like this real apartment. Let's go there. He tells Aliza that the money was there. The cash was there and they could stay for a few days and he could bond with the baby and just have fun. I mean, it's a seven hour drive. Let's do it. On the way there, Bruno realizes, shit, Diane is at the ranch house. He diverts the rest of the group to stay back. And he's like, don't come near the ranch house until I get her out. He goes in there first. And Diane remembers he's slamming the door open.

57:34He's crying. She never really saw him cry. So that was alarming. He's rushing to her. And he's telling her something along the lines of Aliza is threatening to kill me. She's got a hit man out on me. She's crazy. Please, you have to get out of here. Hurry. Take the kids. pack your bags. I want you guys to be safe. It's so dangerous. I got to deal with it on my own. I don't, I could never live with myself if something happens to you. And he's crying? Yeah. What? When he left, he likely just wiped his tears and opened the door for Aliza and the rest of the group. Immediately upon entering the ranch house, the energy shifted.

58:05Aliza was no longer allowed to be near her baby. They were kept in separate rooms and it was likely that the group was trying to use baby Bruno as a threat to try and get Aliza to do whatever they wanted. Aliza was effectively held hostage in that house. We're not sure if she was tied up, if she was drugged, if she was changed, but even if she wasn't, she wouldn't have to be. If they had her baby, she was willing to do anything. While she's being held hostage at the ranch house, it's said that Bruno still threw his typical crazy weekend barbecue parties with naked women and potentially group activities.

58:36He might have honestly gone a bit harder this time because he lost his chance at the World Cup. He seems like the type to go crazy to drown his feelings so he left her at the ranch house and went back no he's throwing parties at the ranch house and he's not letting anyone in the bathroom and fernanda thinks it's weird because this is her boyfriend who loves these parties but now he's like no one go in the main house it's weird she's like what's going on and then there's there's this baby it's just like weird at this point at one of the parties sergio bruno's cousin remember the one that's in and out of the inner circle.

59:10He ends up coming to the party and he tries to go to the bathroom and he's blocked by one of the other minions, either Maka or Jay. And he's like, what do you mean I can't use the bathroom? Don't be crazy. I'm his cousin. It's not like I'm a stranger. I use the bathroom in here all the time. Move out the way. And they wouldn't. It was weird. Sergio said he started investigating because he wanted to know what the hell was going on. Like, why can't he go to the bathroom? He ends up peeking through the window and he sees Aliza there with a bloody head wound and he starts panicking. He's never met Aliza, it seems, but he's like, that's Aliza from the news.

59:42The one that said, if anything happens to me, it's Bruno. Everybody knows Aliza. He runs over to Bruno at the party, like, can I talk to you? Pulls him over to the side, and Bruno's like, what? What have you done with her? Bruno allegedly says, what's done is done. Don't worry, I'll take care of it. After the weekend, it's stated that the group made Aliza call her friends to tell them, don't worry about me. I'm doing fine. Sorry I didn't call you back. I'm just hanging out with Bruno and we're going to check out new apartments soon. She was not fine. She had been moved from Bruno's ranch house to what the others called the death house.

1:00:19It's owned by a man named Bola, which means ball. He's an ex-cop turned dog trainer turned dog breeder. And I'm not going to say which dog breed because I think they're constantly villainized. And I think we all know that it's the owner, not the breed of the dog. But still, I do question if he was just a dog breeder. This is purely speculation and theory, but there are some netizens who also feel like he was likely a dog fighter. He would train these dogs to fight, host events where people would come and bet on certain dogs, watch while they just like mauled each other apart until there was only one dog left standing.

1:00:55Aliza is brought to Bola's house, the death house. And it's interesting, a lot of netizens were wondering why like this man just comes out of nowhere he's not friends with Bruno he's not part of his entourage why would he let them bring a hostage into the house is it because he's like a hired hitman did Bruno just pay for this it's a little more complicated Bola allegedly had a son that wanted to be a pro soccer player which I'm sure he had some skill but like any industry having the right connections can take you further so it's alleged that once Aliza arrived at the death house, Bola starts questioning her like he's a cop all over again.

1:01:28He's barking at her, are you on drugs? She's like, no, sir, please. He gets up in her face, allegedly, according to Jay and Maka, grabs her hand and sniffs her fingers one by one and then starts patting her down, inspecting her pockets. And it's stated the whole time she was begging with him, please, sir, I just I just don't want to get beaten again. I can't take it anymore. It's also stated that Maka was holding baby Bruno at this point. Now, some sources allege, like some witnesses say that Bruno himself was there watching this whole thing. Some sources allege that he was at the ranch house.

1:02:01He knew what was going on, but he was not here. Either way, Bola allegedly smiled and stated, don't worry, Elisa, you're not gonna get beaten. You're gonna get killed. Later, Jay would state that Bola grabbed a necktie, wrapped it around her neck and started pulling it. They said that it took a few minutes. At first, her eyes were wide, and then her veins started popping in her eyes, and the whites turned red from the blood, and foam started coming out of her mouth until she finally stopped moving. She was dead. Bola denies this, but Eliza's body has never been found to this day. Jay and Maka stated, we saw, we saw Bola strangle her, kill her.

1:02:48and then he took her body into his house while we stayed outside with the baby. They stated that they saw Bola come out with black garbage bags that looked really heavy. He was dragging it on the floor. He walked straight up to his dog cages, opened up the black plastic bag, reached in, pulled out two pieces of meat for the dogs and threw it into the cage. A set of severed hands. They stated that he turned around and said to get rid of fingerprints. they would later state that mako was crying and jay was left holding baby bruno and both of them looked down at the baby and thought now what what about the baby aliza's friends all received calls from her that she was fine but when the call stopped immediately they started alerting the police that aliza and her baby are missing of course bruno is the first person to be questioned he gave a full interview to a journalist and stated oh i haven't seen her in months like maybe two, three months ago, I just went to go meet the baby.

1:03:44But that was the last time I saw her. You know, it's an awkward situation, but I already put everything in God's hands. I really hope that she appears and we can just end all of this. It's just been so troublesome. I mean, I'm sad about this. I really am. I really am hoping that she comes back just as much as everybody else is hoping, right? Nobody believed him. Suddenly, all the people that were making fun of Elisa calling her a gold digger were activists who were wondering what What happened to her? And how dare he do this to her? And it's pretty obvious where Bruno's confidence is coming from.

1:04:16When Elisa came out to state that she was kidnapped and almost killed by him, everyone hated her. So it seems natural that he would only think that he's untouchable. To the point where this is how everything starts unraveling. It's like through sheer audacity and confidence. Jay, the nephew, was told to get Bruno's Range Rover cleaned because it was the car that picked Elisa up from the hotel so it might have her blood, her DNA. They wanted it thoroughly wiped. Jay's excited. He's 17. He's like, a Range Rover? On his way to the car wash, he can't help but speed. He wants to test out what this car can do.

1:04:48And the lights come on. The sirens start whirring. He's pulled over. And this is a completely separate incident from the actual crime. This has nothing to do with Aliza. Police saw a Range Rover speeding, doing dangerous turns. They pull it over. They run the registration and realize that the car had several unpaid tickets. They take the car into police possession. they're like we're only going to release it when the tickets are paid bruno knowing that this is the car that eliza was driven and likely had her blood in it did not feel compelled to pay the tickets and get his car back he just let it sit in the police station until they put two and two together they're like wait this is bruno's car bruno is probably involved in a woman's disappearance let's search his car they find droplets of blood in the car brought in 17 year old jay the nephew and he immediately confessed.

1:05:35There was no loyalty. There was nothing through all of them, including himself right onto the train tracks. His first version is commonly accepted as the series of events that I told you about earlier. And they were all arrested. Bruno, Maka, the tattooed best friend, Bola the cop, and another guy named Zizi. Zizi's like an ex-cop. Like the whole thing is bizarre. Zizi would be accused of being the connection that connected Bola with Bruno. So Zizi knew Maka and Bruno. Bruno and Maka didn't know Bola, but there wasn't enough evidence so he was not sentenced. But Bruno, Maka, Bola, and Jay were arrested.

1:06:09Sergio, the cousin that noticed Elisa's head wound, was also arrested. And according to Jay, the nephew, Bruno was not there when the murder took place but when they all went back to the ranch house, they started burning Elisa's belongings. Diane and Sergio had come back to the ranch house and Diane sees this giant bonfire with a red suitcase. Sergio's confused. Sergio's like, what's up with the fire? Where's Elisa? Jay looked at him and allegedly said, she's gone. What do you mean she's gone? It's alleged that Jay told Sergio everything, confessed to everything, and Sergio started panicking. Like, why would you do that?

1:06:43Wouldn't it just be easier for Bruno to just solve it in court? Bruno allegedly looked at him and just said, I know, I regret it now, but it's done. Diane comes down and she asks about Elisa in front of Sergio. And Bruno, in front of Sergio, turns to Diane and goes, she went back to the city to grab some more stuff for the baby. She's going to be back in a few days, but Diane, do you mind taking care of the baby until she gets back? Sergio was questioned and arrested, and then they brought in Diane, because now there's mention of baby Bruno. Where the hell is baby Bruno? Maybe Diane has him. Diane did not.

1:07:21Diane's story was, she thought it was strange that Bruno wanted her to watch Elisa's child, and Elisa was gone, but she agreed to it. Bruno went back to the city and was just business as usual going to practice going to parties he would literally post being at beach parties with a bunch of women and she's here taking care of baby Bruno she looked at the date I mean Elisa was supposed to be here days ago right that's what Bruno said but she's not and Diane can no longer take care of this baby because she's got two kids of her own so she passed the baby on to Maka the tattooed best friend Maka gives it to his wife and then his wife gives the baby to another person and another person.

1:07:56And by the time that Diane was questioned by police officers, she didn't even know who had baby Bruno anymore. He had been passed around so many times they lost track of him. Thankfully, they tracked the baby down. And after a lengthy custody battle between Aliza's parents, Sonia, Aliza's mother, was awarded full custody of her grandson. Murder and company, so Bruno's little inner circle, they immediately start turning on each other. Sergio agreed to work with the investigations as a key witness, which was going to be a big problem. Jay, the minor nephew, was technically the one to snitch first, but he's a minor.

1:08:33He was also involved in the crime heavily, more so than Sergio. So a lot of the attorneys were thinking, we could just be like, you know, Jay's making stuff up because he doesn't want to be the one to take the fall for it. We could push back and say he's got incentive to lie, but Sergio doesn't. Which is why, before the trial, Sergio was taking a walk near his house when a car came by and shot six bullets into him, killing him. What? Just like that? It's suspected that he was killed so he could not testify against the others, but there wasn't enough evidence to convict anyone on this. That's insane.

1:09:03Just like that, they don't even want to talk about that murder. No. There were threats against the judge's life, the prosecutor's life. Like, just, it was a lot. Eventually, rumors started circulating that Bruno and Maka were gay. That was also a thing. Yeah, before the trial, Bruno's attorneys actually started the rumor they said that Maka was gay and that's why he got the tattoo of Bruno and Maka he was obsessed with Bruno and he was killing Aliza to get her out of the way he was obsessed with just being the only one in Bruno's life now Maka the tattooed best friend would end up suing Bruno's lawyers for defamation Bruno was caught sending a letter to Maka in prison and it was basically saying Maka I don't know how to tell you this but I talked to a lot of lawyers and they came to a conclusion that we need to go with plan B.

1:09:48You said if needed, you would stay here and told me to never abandon you. So the time has come, brother. I would never ask you to do that, but now we cannot think only for ourselves. We have greater responsibilities on our hands, our kids. So brother, I beg you to think about it and forgive me. I've always been and still am a man with you. This letter was intercepted by authorities and Maka, the tattooed best friend, was asked about what plan B was and he stated it's Maka taking the blame for it so that Bruno could go back to playing soccer and Bruno could take care of Maka's kids and family financially while he rotted in prison.

1:10:20Uh-huh. Yeah. Did they do it though? No. Oh. Maka was like, I'm not doing that. First of all, I'm not gay, which nothing's wrong if he is. But he's like, don't be trying to push this on me. So they all started turning on each other. Wow. What happened to Maka and Bruno forever? Exactly. In the end, Bruno was sentenced to 22 years in prison. Maka, the tattooed best friend, was found guilty, sentenced to 15 years in prison. Jay, the minor, was sentenced to three years in a juvenile correctional facility. Fernanda, the girlfriend, would be sentenced to three years in prison, but that would later be reduced to community service work.

1:10:56Diane was fully acquitted of all crimes. And Ingrid, the woman Bruno was engaged to while all of this was happening, she decided to marry him while he was in prison. She forgave him. And it stated, and I don't know if this is true, but people stated that she was actually more upset about his cheating than the fact that he was in prison for facilitating a murder. Now here's where it gets crazy. Bruno was granted parole in 2023, serving less than a third of a sentence. He's only 32 years old and he is now recently signed with the Second Division Club in southeastern Brazil for two years. The club owner publicly stated about signing Bruno.

1:11:30Wait, he came out already? He came out and he's playing soccer. What? The club owner stated he was found guilty, he served his time and he was released by the courts. He deserves another opportunity. Oh my God. Bruno even said, in an interview last year, what happened happened. I made a mistake, a serious one, but mistakes happen in life. I'm not a bad guy. People try to bury my dream because of one mistake, but I asked God for forgiveness. So I'm carrying on with my career, dude. He said that, not me. Yeah, which really divided netizens. Some stated, the rehabilitation for this type of heinous offense committed by him should not be in soccer where children look up and see players as heroes.

1:12:08But others commented, the social justice warriors need to make up their minds whether they support ex-prisoners rehabilitation and second chance to life or not because he already served his sentence and according to the law he does not owe anyone anything else that is actually some of bruno's milder fans there are some fans who have done really sick things like photoshopping eliza's photo into a bag of dog food bruno is still married to ingrid they have a daughter together and which is terrifying he posts about his family life like nothing else has happened and some comments can be translated into great goalkeeper god bless you and my idol eliza's body has still not been found there are theories i mean it's weird because a lot of netizens believe if bola were to tell the authorities where her body was he would get time shaved off so the theories are he really did feed her to the dogs and there's no way to retrieve her body because they state pigs are not the only ones capable of eating humans.

1:13:04Dogs are said to be able to eat other animals' bones and all. Perhaps he really did dismember Elisa and feed her to the dogs, and he can't admit that, so he's staying quiet. Or another theory is that he only fed the dogs Elisa's hands so that her fingerprints could be gone, but her body was buried in concrete somewhere else. That's what Maka and Jay stated. But the question is, if she's buried somewhere else, why wouldn't Bola tell everyone? because maybe she's not the only one buried there is the theory. Sonia, Aliza's mom, is now taking care of baby Bruno and stated that when baby Bruno was younger, he kept asking where his mom was buried.

1:13:41He is now 13 years old and according to Sonia, he goes to weekly therapy and for the longest time, Sonia tried to stop him because she didn't want baby Bruno to follow in the steps of her father. Baby Bruno wanted to be a soccer player, a goalie to be exact, and he's really good at it. But I think that we can say he is not following in the footsteps of his father. He is following in the footsteps of his mother instead. She was passionate about soccer. Her position was the goalie. And it said that he's really good and has just this really kind, serene heart, just like his mom. Aliza once stated, she's like the moon.

1:14:18Everyone admires her, but she's all alone. Hopefully baby Bruno knows that even during the day when the sun is out, the moon is still there. Sometimes you don't see it, sometimes you do. And perhaps Elisa is his moon, always watching over him and guiding him. And that is where I leave you with today's case. What are your thoughts? What do you think happened? Where do you think Elisa's body is? let me know in the comments please stay safe and I will see you guys on Sunday for the next one bye
