World Cup 2014(controversies) by Dargreen(m): 9:34am On Nov 01, 2013
The City of Rio de Janeiro
woke
up on Tuesday morning
to the
brutal murder of a former
footballer. Joao Rodrigo
Silva
Santos, 35, who was
reported
missing by his wife at
around 9
p.m. on Monday. The
following
morning, she found his
head on
the doorstep of their
home in a
rucksack. His eyes and
tongue
had been cut out in an
apparent
gang execution.
The sheer brutality of the
killing
has sent the city into
rewind. The
edgy perception of Rio de
Janeiro has gradually been
lifting
as the city's government
strived
to cleanse its image prior
to
hosting the World Cup,
which will
include the final at the
Maracana.
Contrasting reports are
pouring
out of Rio as the city goes
into
overdrive on theories
concerning
the killing. Friends Santos
have
stressed that the ex-player
had
no enemies and his
assassination
has caused bewilderment.
QUESTION
Joao Rodrigo Silva Santos
Murder:
Will It Affect the World
Cup?

if the guy had NO enemies, then why would someone take the time in beheading him, removing his eyes and tongue, AND THEN bring back the head to his doorstep. of course he had enemy!!!
