Guarapiranga Reservoir Body: The 1988 Sao Paulo Mutilation Case
The body was found on September 29, 1988, on the shore of a reservoir arm in the south zone of Sao Paulo, Brazil, four days after a 53-year-old retiree who fished there went missing. The official necropsy recorded death from acute hemorrhage and multiple trauma, but the removal of the eyes, ears, lips, and other soft tissue looked so clean that when the police photographs leaked to a Sao Paulo tabloid in 1997 the case became the world's best-known claimed human mutilation, known as the Guarapiranga case even though the recovery site was actually an arm of the neighboring Billings reservoir. A supplementary forensic review concluded the man was likely incapacitated by a medical episode and that scavenging animals, chiefly vultures, caused the tissue loss; ufologists who obtained the case file dispute that reading, and the argument has continued ever since.  ·  ·  ·  · |
