The boss, businesswoman Eliane Alves dos Santos, told the police that she had given the cook a ride to a neighborhood in the city. Days later, however, the investigation identified that the businesswoman's truck headed towards Rio de Janeiro on the afternoon of her disappearance and returned the same night. The radar images, added to the traces of blood and evidence of gunshots found in the truck, led to the businesswoman's temporary arrest. On Friday (17), after 17 days of searching, Berenice's body was located in a forested area on the side of a road in Angra dos Reis (RJ).

Although Berenice's son recognized his mother through a tattoo, official identification depends on expert procedures. Due to the body's advanced state of decomposition, experts are trying to recover fingerprints. If this is not possible, identification will be made through the dental arch and, if necessary, through a DNA test. Report will indicate cause of death Another document awaited by the investigation is the necroscopic examination. The expectation is that it will clarify the cause of Berenice's death and help answer whether the cook was already dead when she was taken to the forested area or if she died in the place where the body was found.
