Gaby was reported missing after being seen getting into a car on Sunday 15th October. She was later determined to have been killed after her blood was found inside a vehicle.

Her body has not been found.

[Deadname] Oliveira da Silva, better known as Gaby, a [trans woman], has been missing since [October] 15th. She went missing after she arranged a meeting via social media, in Nísia Floresta, in Greater Natal. According to the chief delegate of Nísia Floresta, José Medeiros, after the case was publicized in the press, members of the public began to report information, and with the new information the line of investigation changed.

“Before we worked along the lines of a crime of passion, perhaps a crime of transphobia, but with the new information the perspective changed a little. Someone would have tried to schedule a program on Instagram with her, and she went. We tried to access these messages that were exchanged, but they were remotely deleted.”

Medeiros explained that after this confirmation, the team tried to locate the car she got into, based on the characteristics that were mentioned. “We tried to take some images close to the site, but it was very difficult, because we don't have a sign, just some general characteristics. A crime recently occurred with a car that had similar characteristics,” said the police chief.

This crime took place in a neighboring municipality, and as a result, the team from the Technical-Scientific Institute of Forensics (Itep-RN) went to the scene and carried out an examination of the car, finding blood inside the vehicle. “The blood of this homicide victim was found, but there was also blood on the back, and it looked a little older. Which would make sense to be Gabi’s, who disappeared on the 15th”, says the delegate.
