RS councilor says in video that she attacked her own dog with a broom and denied help The councilor of Santana do Livramento, on the Western Border of RS, who said she used a broom to attack her own dog was indicted by the Civil Police for the crime of animal abuse. Eva Coelho Rosa, known as Simply Eva (PL), remains free, but gave a statement to the police on Wednesday (8). According to delegate Giovana Muller, she confessed to the attacks narrated on social media. The investigation was sent to the Court on Wednesday (8). The delegate explains that a visit was made to the councilor's house to check the conditions of the animals, with the presence of a veterinarian from the city hall, and that no signs of mistreatment were found in the dogs. "There was an indictment for the mistreatment mentioned on the live stream and confirmed during the interrogation." ? Access the g1 RS channel on WhatsApp "No arrest was requested. The veterinary report indicated that the animals were well cared for and fed", reports the delegate. The statement, made on video, in which the parliamentarian appears with a dog on her lap, went viral this week, but it is an excerpt from a live broadcast made on June 29th by Eva. "I took the broom and stuck it to Maristela's head, but I stuck it without regret", says the parliamentarian. Sought by g1, the councilor's defense, represented by lawyer Mônica Llillielli Rivero Coelho, claims that "the statements made during the live stream were a result of the state of nervousness and exaltation experienced at that moment, which is why they do not necessarily accurately portray the dynamics of the facts". The lawyer also expresses “her sincere regret for the words used during the live broadcast”. In the video, the parliamentarian also said that the blow was so strong that the animal began to convulse and that she did not provide assistance. "It's going to convulse... because I'm not going to move a finger. One finger. There's water there, the best food, there's a bed. It's no good for anything", he reported in the video. The action was allegedly motivated by a fight between the dog and another dog, which the councilor claims she was separating. "I'm not interested in mistreatment. I'm the one who's putting the 'bofe' out to break up the fight", says Eva. The Santanense Association for the Protection of Animals (Aspa) published a note of repudiation about what happened. "The publicly released content presents elements that justify the action of the responsible authorities, especially to verify the circumstances narrated, the health status of the animals involved and the possible occurrence of mistreatment."

What the councilor says "As Eva Coelho's lawyer, given the repercussion of the statements made during a live broadcast, I would like to provide the following clarifications. The demonstrations made in the aforementioned broadcast occurred at a time of intense emotional upheaval, shortly after a situation involving a fight between dogs in her home. At the time, her brother, a person with a physical disability, was in a risk situation, a circumstance that required immediate intervention to end the conflict between the animals. It is important to clarify that the statements made during the live broadcast took place of the state of nervousness and exaltation experienced at that time, which is why they do not necessarily accurately portray the dynamics of the events. It was a spontaneous report, carried out under strong emotional impact and in exceptional circumstances. After the events, the dog Maristela was subjected to evaluation by veterinarians, as well as the conditions in which all the animals living in the residence were analyzed. are duly submitted to the assessment of the competent authorities, which have the necessary technical and legal means to promote an objective, impartial investigation based on the evidence produced. At this moment, Eva Coelho is deeply shaken by the scale of the events and all the repercussions generated. Due to the existence of ongoing procedures, the orientation of this defense is for any additional clarifications to be provided exclusively at the administrative and judicial level, preserving due legal process, the adversarial process and broad defense. This defense reaffirms its confidence in the work of the authorities responsible for investigating the facts, certain that all circumstances will be duly clarified based on the technical evidence produced and the assessments carried out by competent professionals. that all pertinent measures and clarifications will be presented exclusively through legal channels, at the time and before the competent authorities.
