A Brazilian man, Antônio Rocha de Sousa, has been found dead just 10 days after he sparked outrage online by burning a Bible and posting the footage on social media.
Rocha’s body was discovered on May 14th with multiple gunshot wounds in Tianguá, a city in the western part of Fortaleza, Brazil.
Another reports claimed that he may have been killed either in the street or found lifeless in his home, according to local sources who alerted the authorities.
In the now-viral video, Rocha is seen holding a Bible and saying: “This here is a Bible, which they say is sacred. Look what it does when faced with fire. It burns.”
“To me, God doesn’t exist. This is just a way to enslave and manipulate people. If you haven’t woken up yet, it’s time to wake up. Look what this ‘sacred’ thing does in the face of fire. It’s time to wake up – God doesn’t exist.”
Police responded to the case of Rocha, who was reportedly shot and killed on a street in Tianguá, a city in western Ceará, Brazil.
However, conflicting reports suggest that locals actually found Rocha dead at his home and quickly contacted the authorities.
It’s also been noted that Rocha had a history of violent behavior and intentionally causing harm.
Before his death, he was known for frequently posting controversial rants about religion on social media.
In his last post before his death, he said: “Follower of Christ, (peacekeeper of Peace). Born again in (Christ), among the living, who were once de@d…after having been tested, tried, and approved by God.”

22-year-old model María José Estupiñán Sánchez was shot and killed by a man posing as a delivery courier.
The incident occurred on May 15, when María stepped outside her home to receive what she believed was a package. Instead, she was gunned down, with the fatal bullet striking her in the cheekbone.
Authorities suspect her murder may be linked to a recent domestic violence case involving her ex-partner. Earlier this month, María testified against him at the prosecutor’s office, and she was reportedly on the verge of receiving a financial settlement of 30 million Colombian pesos (approximately £5,400).
Sources indicate that the ex-partner, who had previously been reported multiple times for abuse since 2018, is the prime suspect. Police believe he may have orchestrated the killing.
María José was not only a model affiliated with a local agency but also a entrepreneur who ran several online businesses selling sportswear, lingerie, and footwear.
She was also pursuing a degree in media studies and was in her seventh term at Francisco de Paula Santander University.

There’s some social media drama brewing between Bobrisky and content creator King Mitchy. It all started after King Mitchy made a video featuring a crossdresser named Philip, who identifies as a man but dresses as a woman.
