Doctor removed boys' sexual organs
A Brazilian court sentenced a doctor to 77 years in prison for the ritual mutilation and killing of young boys in a remote Amazon town over a decade ago, a prosecutor in the case said today.
Anisio Ferreira de Souza received 57 years for the gruesome killings of three boys and 20 more years for the attempted murder of two other boys who escaped from their captors after having their sexual organs removed.
Thirteen years after the first killings, the trial is being closely followed as a test of Brazil's ability to bring justice to remote areas where the law may be under the control of the local elite.
WTF?
