A Brazillian man has returned to his partner who chopped off his penis during a supposed intimate night after she found out he cheated with her teenage relative.
Gilberto Nogueira, 39, was planning to settle down with his girlfriend, Daiane dos Santos, 34, in January when he cheated on her with her 15-year-old niece.
After discovering the affair, dos Santos plotted her revenge by setting up one of their bedrooms for a supposed intimate night in December 2023.
Once Nogueira was in bed without his clothes, dos Santos turned off the lights and tied his penis with a rubber band before she cut it with a razor.
Dos Santos held the penis with her hand and took a picture of it, which she shared on Nogueira’s family WhatsApp chat group, and then flushed it down the toilet at their farmhouse in São Paulo.
Nogueira has undergone multiple operations and is waiting for a penile prosthesis that was gifted by a urologist and will be implanted once he has recovered.
In a February interview with Crime and Mistério S/A, he said that dos Santos, who has two children from a prior relationship, deserved to spend time in jail and he labelled her ‘a criminal.’
It now appears he’s had a change of heart and has resumed the tumultuous relationship with dos Santos, according to letters Nogueira recently shared with O Globo newspaper.
‘If I hadn’t had sex with (her) niece on my partner’s birthday, none of this would have happened,’ Nogueira told the outlet. ‘Daiane is a wonderful, loving woman who loves me. She didn’t deserve to be betrayed like that.
She was exposed to the whole country. … I don’t care what others think. What really matters is how I feel about her.’
He reached out to check on her well-being on March 15 and was surprised when dos Santos replied two weeks later and asked for a second chance.
In the handwritten note, dos Santos expressed how much he missed him, his daughter, and her children and described her experience at the Mogi Guaçu Women’s Penitentiary.
‘I can’t believe I got a letter from you. I was very happy and had no reaction, as I imagined I would never have any kind of contact with you again,’ she wrote. ‘I’m not well, obviously. Both because of what happened and because I miss my children.’
‘I want you to know that I forgive you and I also ask for forgiveness for you and your family,’ Dos Santos added. ‘I placed our lives in God’s hands. If it is His will, and His, of course, we will rebuild our lives when we leave here.’
