Municipal Secretariat of Education “The legal guidance received by the Municipal Secretariat of Education was that as the servant was released by the Superior Court of Justice and there was still no condemnatory sentence, there is no way for the civil servant to be removed and have her remuneration suspended, which is why which she returned to work, in an administrative function in the Secretariat’s warehouse “, informs the municipal body, in a note. Through social networks, the municipal secretary of Education of Rio de Janeiro, Renan Ferreirinha, said that there is an administrative process asking for the resignation of Monique. “If it were up to me, Monique Medeiros would have been fired a long time ago, but we know how Justice takes time in Brazil. Since this absurd case happened, we initiated an administrative process, but as she was released by the Justice and there was still no condemnatory sentence, the legal guidance received by the Secretariat is that there is no way for the servant to be removed and have her remuneration suspended, but it will be kept away from the classroom and our schools.” Remember the case Henry Borel died just under two years ago, in March 2021, in an apartment in Barra da Tijuca, west of Rio de Janeiro, where he lived with his mother and his stepfather, former councilor Jairo de Souza. Investigations by the Civil Police point to the two as suspects in the torture and murder of the boy, which would have been committed by the councilor, with the knowledge of the mother. In April 2021, the two were arrested in preventive character, by decision of the Justice. However, he and Monique deny that there was any aggression against Henry. *Intern under the supervision of Akemi Nitahara
