Security is a complicate subject in Brazil, when we
start to talk about our police, probably, we will talk about corruption,
violence and sometimes abuse of power. Many people don`t believe that our
police can protect us or keep the order in dangerous situation, but this week
the Brazilian police showed everyone that there are good policemen yet and our system
can work is each one helps them. Phillip John Smith, A convicted child molester and murderer from
New Zealand, He crept into the family's home during the night and
stood over the boy, before his father came rushing in to save him. Smith then
killed the father after repeatedly stabbing him with a hunting knife. He managed to plan his escape and
flee to Brazil. The Brazilian federal police caught him in a hostel in the
bohemian Santa Teresa neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro. They discovered that
Philip went first to Chile and after that flew to Brazil planning stay here
because Brazil doesn`t have a formal deal about extradition with New Zealand.
Now John Smith was arrested and would be kept in custody pending extradition. His
lawyer said that he may be extradited soon because his passport was cancelled. The most
important about it is how our police could investigate and work in this case to
be successfully, all in all we have a long way to makes our country better and safer
but I think it was an important step to do it.
