I'm brazilian and I enjoy people's view on my country haha.
Anyway, there indeed is a 30 year max jailtime as our Constitution forbids both perpetual punishment and the death penalty (in line with multiple international human rights treaties that Brazil is part of).
Getting convicted for more time than that has implications on several benefits like parole, going for a brander (is that a word?) regime, etc.
However, if the person is found mentally ill he can stay in jail for pretty any amount of time as his release is tied to psychological evaluation.
And trust me, 30 years in one of our prisons is waaaay worse than a lifetime in one of yours.
Cairne wanted to thank him again, to offer encouragement, praise for a task so successfully completed. For being able to bear such burdens. But Saurfang was an orc, not a blood elf, and lavish compliments and effusion would not be welcomed or wanted.
30 years in a Brazilian prison while having murdered 41 people including children. He will be lucky if he is still alive once that sentence ends.
It's Brazil, the law is optional. Since he's not some mob boss, his ass is already in the ground.
Doesn't happen that way in south American countries, he will be out in 30 or less. And to all those thinking he will be killed in prison, unfortunately he won't be. This isn't the movies, he'll most likely survive and we will hear about him murdering more people 30-40 years from now.

Keep dreaming, this isn't a movie. I would bet my life savings that he survives the 30 years.
Targeted Mostly white people, incoming grief from none whites about it being racist that he only killed whites.
Seriously though, He Killed a Child. I suspect whilst his prison term may only be 30 years, the chances of him lasting that long after killing a child is at best, slim to none. Normally I don't agree with prison justice but in the case of child killers, then I am perfectly happy to know that at some point he will be dealt with.
He was going for the Nemesis title !
He wont live to see his next birthday in Brazilian prisons

Words to live by.
Answering the question: 30 is the limit. João Acácio Pereira da Costa (best know as "bandido da luz vermelha", red light bandit - same nickname as an american serial killer) was convicted to 351 year, 9 months and 3 days of prison (4 murderers, 7 murder attempts and 77 robberies). He walked free after 30 years of prison (he was killed later, in a bar fight).
On the topic: Since this guy murdered children if he goes to jail (which he is going to, unless he pleas insanity), he will get murdered there pretty quickly.
Feminism vs political correctness who will win!
Either of you want to put some money on that? Because I would be happy to take that bet. I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this is not like the movies. The other prisoners don't have some crazy vendetta against baby killers or mass murderers. You forget, they are also rapists, pedophiles, murderers.
Like I said, I'm happy to put my money where my mouth is, are you?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luis_Garavito
raped, tortured, and murdered hundreds of children, has been in Colombian prison for 15 years, still not dead yet. He'll be out in 7 more.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedro_L...rial_killer%29
Killed supposedly 300 people, served 20 years in prison, surprise! he wasn't murdered by the inmate justice squad. He's already out living free amongst the rest of us.
I know we all want to believe that there will be justice for these animals, but the reality is that there just isn't. There is no magic crew of vengeful inmates who kill off serial killers and child killers. That's in the movies, that's not in real life.

You assume incorrectly. I even currently have family living in Brazil.
News is a business, you see what they think will make the most money, doesn't make it reality to what happens to most criminals.
Is there a random case every now and there where some prison justice is dealt out? Sure, but it's far far far far far less than the media and movies would have you believe.
I'd link you a video of some prisoners getting beheaded that raped and/or killed children in brazil prison by inmates but that would be too graphic for this site and I don't want an infraction from the mods. You can google it yourself though. A lot of things happen during prison riots.
In Brazil the limit is 30 years in jail however you only need to stay 1/6 of the time that you were condemned to be able to leave prison for the whole day to work and go back at night only to sleep, it's called "Regime Semi-Aberto". So if he stays in jail for 5 years he can use the "Regime Semi-Aberto" and simply escape. They don't use that thing in their leg to track them.
So yes, after 5 years he can easily escape with no problem. Isn't it nice to have left parties ruling this country for more than 26 years?
Have you ever seen Drauzio Varella's enterview on Roda Viva? He talks about the "justice" system running on the jails he worked as a doctor. While I don't see this guy being murdered in prison due to his murders on the white women, crimes against children are not well seen there.
In most cases of rape and brutal crimes against children on Brazil, they throw these criminals on special prisons that only hold these type of people to avoid things like you described and some way more worst to happens to then. Probably the police will throw him on that prison in São Paulo that holds infamous and brutal criminals like the Nardoni couple.
Have a limit on the amount of years that a person can stay jailed on Brazil. If this guy said is really true, he will get 200+ years easily on paper. Let's hope that he will be proven be a real crazy or in 6 years after being a "good boy" he will be released...
But yes, our criminal justice system is a joke. And maybe never will be fixed since if start to works, 99% of our politicians will be arrested asap lol
PS: sorry for any english mistake
