Arrested by mistake for almost two years, the model and dancer Bárbara Querino was acquitted on Wednesday (13) by decision of the judge of the São Paulo Court of Justice, Guilherme Souza Nucci. On his social networks, he shared the image of the judicial decision: “More than incredible news.”

Barbara was accused of having participated in a car theft on September 10, 2017 in São Paulo, along with four other young people. In the car, a white Honda Civic, was a couple and their eight-year-old daughter.

At the police station, in front of a photograph of Barbara displayed by the police, the couple designated her as a participant in the crime. “I am 100% sure it is her, because of her hair,” said the woman in front of the model’s photo.

Even after proving that she was in Guarujá, on the São Paulo coast, on the day of the crime, Bárbara was arrested in January 2018. She only left in September last year, benefited by good behavior. “It was terrible to be trapped, almost two years passed that took me. I don’t want this experience for anyone, “said Barbara in interview to ISTOÉ magazine In February of this year.

In the May 13 court decision, Nucci found the model’s recognition to be peculiar since her hair does not display any distinctive features that can identify her. The judge also found two men guilty of theft: William Wagner of Paula da Silva and Wesley Victor Querino de Oliveira.

Through social networks, Flávio Campos, the model’s lawyer, commented on the client’s victory. “An important day in the fight against structural racism and the imprisonment of black bodies. Barbara Querino gained freedom with her sweat and tears and after a long battle she was acquitted due to the enormous evidence of innocence. An abolitionist victory, ”he wrote.

“I am happy to be a part of this fight with so many brothers and sisters in the fight and with Barbara who convinced us to follow her leadership and defend from her perspective. A process that changed my perspective on life “, continued Flávio, who also affirmed:” the fight continues “.

Also on social media, Barbara wrote that she “did not believe.” “I shudder, I cry with joy, I cry with relief. He was in a false freedom and finally that weight passed. He could not have been arrested, he could not have gone through all this, so that this day the truth would come to light. Even in the face of so much happiness, I also cry for our Brazilian “justice”. I cry for making innocent people go through what I went through. Esú does not fail! Orisá does not fail! I am living proof! It was not in vain, ”he said.
