The doctor was indicted for the crimes of ideological falsehood and human trafficking and is currently in preventive detention. The investigation against her was concluded last week.
According to the police, Claudia “had already planned the crime in the months prior to the abduction of the child”. “She falsely told family and friends that she was pregnant; bought layettes for babies, and looked for children in other states of the federation who could be illegally adopted by her, using fraud and enticing vulnerable people to hand over their newborns”, the police added.

The newborn baby was kidnapped by the neurologist in a hospital in Uberlândia (MG) on the night of July 23. According to investigations, Claudia had pretended to be a pediatrician to enter the maternity ward and gain access to the victims’ family room.
Claudia and the baby were found the next day in Itumbiara (GO). The distance between Itumbiara and Uberlândia is approximately 135 kilometers.
The child was unharmed and was returned to her family. Both the baby and her mother were discharged on July 26.
