A Spotless Butcher

                                                                                         

Not many people knew Raimundo Barboza Neto from Sandy Springs, Georgia intimately, but those who did, agreed that he was a pretty unique individual. Originally from Brazil, Raimundo kept close to what he knew and rarely left the Brazilian community, mostly patronizing local restaurants and stores. Not surprisingly, he spoke very little English, but rumor had it he was also barely literate in Portuguese. Raimundo zealously amassed cash, yet peculiar fellow that he was, never entrusted his wealth to a bank. He was a loner who liked and preferred his own company, and was very quiet in public, a gentle giant with a shy smile. His size and physical strength made him a good fit for his occupation - a butcher - but contrary to stereotypes, Raimundo Barboza Neto always appeared spotlessly clean and precisely organized.

On September 9, 2006, Barboza Neto flew into an uncharacteristically uncontrollable rage and butchered his ex-wife 10 days after their divorce became final, stabbing her to death multiple times. Little is known about their five-year marriage, except that during its course Raimundo became less and less interested in his wife and obsessed with gay pornography.

Immediately following the murder, Barboza coerced a coworker into driving him to Greenville, South Carolina and buying a Greyhound ticket to Boston, Massachusetts. During that time, he also confessed to killing his ex-wife. The police have doubts whether he actually boarded the bus to Boston, but believe that whatever his location, he continues to hide out in a Brazilian community. An urgent plea addressed to all U.S. residents of Brazilian origin encourages them to step forward with any knowledge of Barboza Neto's whereabouts.
