Marcola faces jury trial two decades after police officer's death
According to Google News BR — São Paulo, Marcos Williams Herbas Camacho, known as Marcola and identified as head of the First Command of the Capital (PCC), will be subjected to trial by jury 21 years after the alleged homicide of a police officer.
The case dates back to a crime that occurred more than two decades ago. Marcola, who is already serving lengthy sentences for other crimes, now faces this specific legal process related to the death of the security officer.
The PCC is the largest criminal faction in Brazil, with operations recorded both inside and outside the prison system. Marcola is considered by police and the Public Prosecutor's Office as a central figure in the command of the organisation for years.
The holding of the jury trial represents a significant stage in the legal proceeding, which has been processed for more than two decades before reaching this phase. No information has been released regarding the scheduled date of the trial.
