Description
In June 2023, a Brazilian federal court sentenced engineer Mário Marcelo Santoro to 27 years in prison for the 2018 murder of former partner Cecília Haddad in Australia.
Santoro was convicted of aggravated homicide, asphyxiation, femicide and concealment of a corpse, after a surprise confession to the court. .
In April 2018, the body of 38 year old Haddad was discovered in the Lane Cove river in Sydney, a few kilometres from her residence.. By then, Santoro had already left Australia and returned to his native Brazil.
So began a five year struggle to see justice done for Cecilia, which involved NSW homicide detectives working with their Brazilian counterparts to build the case against Santoro. Adam's guests are Detective Sergeant Hannah Packer and Detective Inspector John Edwards who promised to deliver justice to Cecilia's family.
