Talk:Candelária massacre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A few points:

- I believe Candelaria would properly be written Candelária

- "Nojento" (disgusting) is spelt with a J; the article says "Nogento". It is possible that the kid's nickname was spelt like that, but given that the kid was a street kid I doubt his nickname was ever written down before the massacre, although it is conceivable that it is supposed to be spelt with a G. Sorry, no time to do research...

- Most importantly: there's more information about the later Sandro do Nascimento incident than about the massacre, including the links. This information should be moved to an article about that other event. --Cotoco 14:07:58, 2005-08-31 (UTC) the street will flow with the blood of the non believers candelaria from corpus is evil 433 breckenridge corpus christi tx.

[edit] Fascinating Article

I toned down the style a bit and requested some citations, but this is one fantastic entry. It does not need any hyperbole to be an important article. Please help expand! --Knulclunk 05:17, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

The notes about his sreaming about social justice and the citizens throwing garbage are not in the main Sandro Rosa do Nascimento article. Is that an oversight? or were those events only in the Bus174 movie? --Knulclunk 05:21, 2 March 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Fate of Survivors

I see that someone cited the movie, Bus 174, for the statement, "eventually 39 of them were either killed by police or by elements of street life". But the way this is written now implies that the police killed a large number of the survivors to silence them. This may or may not be true, but we had better be sure before we put it in the article.

  • How many survivors were killed by police?
  • Elements of street life? Like, mugging, murder, drug overdose, suicide, police brutality, exposure?
  • How shortly after the Candelaria church massacre did the survivors die? 1 year? 5 years? even later?
  • Who was the social worker? Who did she work for?

[edit] How many convicted?

The intro paragraph states that two policemen were convicted, while the aftermath section states that only one was. Which is it? tildetildetildetilde —Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.103.57.189 (talk) 06:09, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
