Rio Police Indict Ex-BBB 26 Contestant Pedro Espíndola for Sexual Harassment

Prosecutors now review the case file to decide whether to bring criminal charges.

Overview

  • The women’s protection unit in Jacarepaguá conducted the inquiry using technical and forensic analysis of the reality show’s footage.
  • Investigators said they could not locate Espíndola for questioning but completed a full review of the recorded material.
  • Police stated that the evidence and expert report established the offense’s materiality and allowed attribution of responsibility to the suspect.
  • The case stems from images showing Espíndola attempting to kiss participant Jordana without her consent inside the program’s pantry area.
  • Following the incident, he quit the show, and the presenter said Jordana received support and that he would have been removed had he not left.
