Case 127: Killer Petey
Pedro Rodrigues Filho, or Pedrinho as he came to be called, was born on June 17 1954. He had a misshapen skull due to a deliberate kick his mother, Manuela, had received to her pregnant belly from her husband, Pedro Rodrigues Senior. Given the level of violence their father inflicted upon their mother, Pedrinho and his seven younger siblings were lucky to be born at all.

Amazing! Maybe you can get an interview with him in the future? (I haven’t checked social media.)
loved it! can you say that about a true story like this? 🤔
Great job Casefile. Thoroughly interesting and thoughtfully told as per usual.
How has I never heard of this guy before. Do you hate him or love him?
I had the exact same thought - how have I never heard of this case before!
The moral of the story is...don't kick pregnant women in the stomach. Thank you for another intriguing episode
