The couple's other four children were sent to institutional care after the case and, during the care, professionals noticed "marks of aggression" on the children. On July 6, one day after Oliver was admitted to the hospital, the brothers were taken to the Medical-Legal Department for forensic examinations. ?

The text also states that one of the children had several marks on his body, including injuries compatible with bites. Still according to the document, at that moment, the older brother spontaneously stated: "That's the bite that the father gives. He bites us." The report records that the speech took place "without any inducement on the part of the professionals present". The text sent to the Court also describes that this same brother demonstrated resistance to allowing the evaluation of his own body and tried to prevent other children from showing injuries or reporting facts to professionals. The report also points out that the boy demonstrated "intense fear of his father" and reproduced controlling and intimidating behaviors similar to those attributed to his father. The document states that he repeatedly said that he "only did what she said", in reference to his mother. In the same report, the Guardianship Council states that it began monitoring the family in November 2025 and that it received information that the children had already been institutionally housed for around four months in Palmitos, in Santa Catarina, due to a situation of violence. The document records that, at the time, Oliver Golden Grayson, then approximately one and a half years old, was the victim of physical attacks.
