21-year-old Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas died jumping off Skeleton Bridge in Limeira, Brazil<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Police imagine the model who was killed in a bungee jumping accident was wearing a GoPro camera \u2013 which they are saying could have been hidden after her death.<\/p>\n

Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas, 21, was killed last week<\/strong> jumping off Skeleton Bridge and falling 130ft in Limeira, Brazil, with no rope.<\/p>\n

Police are actually trying to find a missing GoPro, which they imagine was attached to the model\u2019s neck strap as she fell.<\/p>\n

Bungee employees Luis Felipe Feliciano Egoroff, 32, Maicon Fernandes Cintra, 42, and Vitor de Freitas Goncalves, 27, have been arrested after they allegedly \u2018forgot\u2019 to clip on Maria\u2019s harness and face homicide charges.<\/p>\n

Three more suspects have also been arrested, with police saying one is suspected of removing the camera and deleting crucial evidence from it.<\/p>\n

They include a 29-year-old woman from Rio de Janeiro and two men aged 25 and 27 from Limeira and Indaiatuba, respectively.<\/p>\n

Witness Rafael Goulart claimed he saw an worker removing the camera as Maria lay dying.<\/p>\n

He told news outlet EPTV: \u2018The primary scene I remember once I saw the girl on the bottom was seeing one in every of the workers removing the GoPro camera from the neck strap of the body that was already on the bottom, either frightened concerning the equipment or wanting to cover evidence.\u2019<\/p>\n

S\u00e3o Paulo State authorities are actually investigating possible \u2018suppression of evidence\u2026 especially related to the disappearance of the image capture equipment utilized by the victim throughout the jump.\u2019<\/p>\n

While Maria\u2019s camera has yet to be found, footage of the autumn that killed her has still circulated on social media.<\/p>\n

Clips posted to one in every of the bungee instructor\u2019s Instagram pages show employees throwing a body bag off the identical bridge Maria jumped from (Picture: @luisfelipeegoroff\/Instagram)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

One clip shows her being helped onto a ledge with two men carrying her in a Superman pose before she is thrown off the bridge head-first.<\/p>\n

In other footage shared on social media in 2022, Egoroff and one other man may very well be seen throwing a body bag off the very bridge that Maria fell from.<\/p>\n

The clip, shared to Egoroff\u2019s Instagram account, was captioned \u2018hiding the body\u2019.<\/p>\n

In others, he performs bungee stunts off the bridge himself while children cling onto him. One video shared to the platform in 2023 shows a toddler wearing a helmet and a harness clinging on as a person, considered Egoroff, leaps from the bridge.<\/p>\n

A lawyer representing Egoroff, Cintra and de Freitas Goncalves has disputed any notion that Maria\u2019s death was intentional.<\/p>\n
