A mother tore off her nine-year-old son’s penis with the help of her lesbian lover. They later beheaded the boy because “he reminded her of her dad”
Mum Rosana Cândido, 27, and Kacyla Pessoa, 28, of Brazil, stabbed 9-year-old Rhuan over a dozen times. They removed all the skin from his face and used a knife to try to gouge out his eyeballs to prevent possible recognition.
They then butchered the boy’s body.
They attempted to burn some of the boy’s body part on a barbeque but botched it so they stuffed his remains in a suitcase and dumped it in a sewer.
The body was later found in the suitcase, police said. Other parts were found in two backpacks at their home in Brazil.
The women are accused of tearing off Cândido’s son Rhuan’s penis a year ago during a surgery done at home with “rudimentary tools”. The two women are said to have told investigators they did it because Rhuan “wanted to become a girl.”
According to local reports, “After removing his penis, the women said they sewed an improvised version of the female organ onto the mutilated area.”
The lovers are said to have confessed everything to cops in Samambaia, about 20 miles from capital Brasilia. They face homicide, torture and concealing a corpse charges.
Cândido reportedly claimed her son was a “burden” and a hindrance to her relationship with Pessoa. She also “felt hatred and no love” for him because he reminded her of father, who allegedly abused her.
Rhuan’s dad, who lives in Acre, is said to have told officers that Cândido ran away with the boy five years ago when he lost custody. She then went to live with Pessoa and her daughter, now aged nine.
Pessoa’s daughter has been put into care.
Police chief Guilherme Melo told O Tempo: “She killed her son, quartered, decapitated, plucked the skin and tried to get rid of the body. It was a very terrible case.”

Health authorities in Kericho County are on a red alert over a suspected case of Ebola.
This was after a patient exhibited suspected symptoms of the haemorrhagic fever at Kericho County Referral Hospital.
County officials on Monday said the woman had travelled from Malaba, a town in Busia County on the border of Kenya and Uganda, to see her spouse.

“On further interrogation, she admitted to having travelled from Malaba where she alleges to reside to see her husband who works in Kericho.”
Ms Okirio said they transferred the patient, acting on Health ministry’s alert on Ebola that requires all medical facilities in Kenya and the public to report any medical cases with symptoms of the fever.
“This patient needed close and further elaborate investigations while under appropriate isolation requirements till diagnosed for targeted treatment to be given,” she said. “The hospital clinical team also went ahead to consult and seek further guidance from the county surveillance team, who advised to have the patient transferred to the county referral hospital for further management while on isolation. Once the appropriate preparations had been done.”
The hitherto unidentified patient was admitted to Kericho County Referral Hospital on Sunday and was immediately put in isolation.
“The county disease surveillance team immediately took over the matter and took all the necessary precautions to ensure that there was minimal contact between the patient and other persons at the hospital including the staff and the other hospital users,” the county government said in a statement.
“The county Department of Health Services is monitoring this potential case very closely and is working with the National Government to ensure that all essential procedures are followed to protect public health and safety.”
Blood samples from the patient were sent to the Kenya Medical Research Institute (Kemri) in Nairobi for further analysis.
“The preliminary test results are expected to be ready within the next 12 to 24 hours,” the statement read in part. Kindly note that no visits will be allowed into the isolation room.”
