The incident reportedly occurred following a heated argument between the couple.

Emergency services arrived to find Bispo dos Santos holding his wife's body on the ground floor of the building.

He later alleged that she had taken her own life.

However, police state that CCTV footage contradicts his account of events.

Investigators indicate that the footage shows a series of physical assaults in the moments leading up to Gomes da Silva’s death.

The suspect is allegedly seen striking his wife in the parking lot.

The aggressive behavior continues inside the elevator, where he appears to grab her by the neck.

Bispo dos Santos can reportedly be seen dragging his wife from the elevator as she desperately clings to the door.

About a minute later, he returns to the elevator alone and collapses to the floor with his head in his hands.

Moments later, Gomes da Silva fell to her death.

Nine days after the incident, he was arrested on suspicion of femicide.

Originally from Ceará state, Maria had moved to São Paulo seeking new opportunities.

She built a following online, creating lifestyle content.

She is survived by a daughter from a previous relationship.
