Bruno Correa da Hora Fernández, a former sergeant in the Federal District Gendarmerie (PMDF), has been expelled from the corporation, as published in the Official Gazette of the Federal District this Wednesday (12/11). The soldier had been found guilty by the Cairandia Jury Court on October 24 for the death of market peddler Credson de Caldas Sousa (Featured images). On New Year’s Eve, December 31, 2023, Bruno shot Credson in the head and arm after a car accident.

The former police officer was tried for qualified murder, use of a restricted firearm, drink-driving and unlawful possession of a firearm by a member of the Prime Minister. The judge sentenced Bruno to 22 years and eight months in a closed prison without the possibility of appeal.
Family and friends of Keke, known as Credson, waited 664 days for justice to be served. The victim’s sister, Tereza Cristina, said: “I’m very grateful to God and I’m very happy with everything.”
Recall the example.
- Bruno, accompanied by his wife and some friends, decided to grab a bite to eat at a restaurant in CNM 1.
- Credson was also at the scene, but witnesses said he appeared shaken. Bruno would have gone and talked to him and told him to leave.
- After the altercation, Credson left the scene, and the officer then left the scene.
- However, the two met again at a traffic light on Calle Hélio Prates.
- The Prime Minister said Credson punched the car window and threatened to kill him, and Bruno, fearing for his life, opened fire.
Reactions and inquiries
“He claimed self-defense and said he thought my brother would survive being shot in the head,” Tereza said. At the time of the crime, the incident was investigated by the 15th Police Station (Seilandia), but the officer was not immediately dismissed.
According to the Transparency Portal, Bruno, a sergeant third class in the Combat Military Police Station (QPPMC), has been with the PMDF since 2014 and had a base salary of R9,167.01.
