What should’ve been a treat-filled Easter celebration in Brazil turned into a living nightmare after a 7-year-old lost his life and two others were left in critical condition due to being poisoned by chocolate eggs sent by their mother’s romantic rival.
35-year-old Jordélia Pereira Barbosa was arrested and put on preventive detention after being accused of orchestrating the jealousy-fueled murder.
According to Maranhão state authorities, Pereira disguised herself and delivered chocolate Easter eggs laced with poison to the home of Mirian Lira, the woman currently dating her former lover.
