Rope jumping death: MP denounces four prisoners for homicide with possible intent The Public Ministry of São Paulo (MP-SP) requested the conviction of four people for homicide with possible intent for the death of Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas, aged 21. The young woman died after being thrown without a safety rope during rope jumping on the Ponte do Esqueleto, between Limeira (SP) and Cordeirópolis (SP), on June 13. According to the MP, those responsible for promoting the radical activity knew the risks, but neglected basic safety protocols, such as checking the rope and equipment, and legal requirements, prioritizing profit and promoting the event on social media rather than the lives of the participants. ? Rope jumping is a radical practice that uses static ropes without elasticity, causing a pendulum movement after the fall.

"The technical non-compliance was added to the formal irregularity of the activity itself. The defendants commercially exploited the rope jump without registering in the Registry of Tourist Service Providers (Cadastur) of the Ministry of Tourism, without taking out civil liability insurance and without preparing terms of knowledge, responsibility and risk awareness to be signed by the participants, requirements already in force at the time of the events", maintain the prosecutors Prosecutors Mário Robim da Silva Júnior, Michelli Musse Jacob, João Guilherme Salve, Matheus Bulgarelli de Freitas Guimarães, Renato Fanin and André Camilo Castro Jardim are responsible for taking the case to the Judiciary.

She fell from a height of approximately 30 meters and died of polytrauma. The case was qualified for a bad reason and a resource that made it impossible for the victim to defend himself. The fourth indicted is Evelyne dos Santos Gonçalves, organizer of the event. She was charged with the same crime of homicide with possible intent, but due to improper omission. The MP stated that, as a guarantor of safety, she had a duty to interrupt the activity in the face of inadequate conditions, which she did not do even though she was aware of a similar operational failure that had previously occurred at the site. 9-year-old child suffered an accident with the same team 3 months before the fatal fall of a young man without a rope in SP In addition to the homicide, Evelyne is accused of procedural fraud. The complaint states that she attempted to eliminate evidence relevant to the investigation by determining the location of the GoPro camera used by the victim during the fall to delete the recordings. The equipment remains missing.
