Crime and consequences

Mingau was shot in the head in Paraty, Rio de Janeiro, earlier this month.

The attack occurred in the early hours of August 3 in Paraty, Rio de Janeiro, where Mingau has a posada. According to the deputy in charge of the case, the Ilha das Cobras region, where the crime took place, is dominated by drug trafficking and the place where the shooting took place is known as a point of buying and selling drugs. According to the testimony of Mingau’s friend who was with him at the time he was shot, the two went to Praça do Ovo, in the neighborhood, to have a snack.

His health conditions are still considered serious, with uncertainty about the possible consequences.

Since he was shot, Porridge has undergone three surgeries. The first operation took place because it was suspected that the bullet was still lodged in the skull, a suspicion later excluded by the doctors. Subsequently, the bassist underwent an operation called “decompressive craniectomy”, which lasted about two and a half hours, to control cranial pressure. Ultimately, he needed a tracheostomy to help with his breathing.
