Gabriel cheated and I will make him pay for all his actions; as he said that there is Heaven and Hell, there in Hell is he; I will find him there and take revenge again.
~ His last recorded words before his presumed disappearance

Daniel Felipe Petry (1991 – presumably dead in 2010 or later) was a Brazilian young homicidal known for sexually abusing and killing his neighbor Gabriel Kuhn on July 23rd, 2007 in Santa Catarina Brazil. His crime is one of the most notorious on the web, especially in horror forums based on the absurd nature of the crime and that crime photos circulate freely on the web.

Background[edit]

Daniel Petry had always been a rebel and very aggressive since he was a child, reacting with extreme violence to the slightest provocation, as a result of this his parents sent him to psychiatric therapies but Petry abandoned these sessions and then left school. At home Daniel Petry spent his time watching presumably Brazilian television shows, surfing the internet, and playing the online role-playing game known as Tibia. It was in this online world that Daniel would befriend and frequently talk to a local 12yr old named Gabriel Kuhn. On one occasion Gabriel asked Daniel if he could borrow 20,000 in Tibia‘s online virtual currency. Daniel agreed to the promise that Gabriel would give it back.

Over time Daniel began to ask for the virtual currency that was promised back to him but Gabriel decided to keep it and also ban him from his virtual contacts. This enraged Daniel who then called Gabriel‘s mother, who was in Nova Trento, at 9:30 am on the day of the crime and asked her what time she would arrive. Now knowing how much time he would have Daniel knocked on Gabriel's door and asked him if he could come in and apologize and work things out. Gabriel opened the door and let him in because they knew each other and were friends. A mistake he instantly regretted.

Daniel Petry closed and locked the door behind him, and then immediately began to give Gabriel a savage and ferocious beating. It was during this beating Daniel dragged the crying boy over to a bed and began to violently rape him. After putting his pants back on Daniel noticed Gabriel laying in the blood crying and began to laugh. Gabriel threatened to denounce Daniel and tell his parents what happened when they get home. Deciding he would want none of that problem, Daniel Petry removed the game console power cord and wrapped it around Gabriel’s neck as he assaulted and vigorously while tightening the cable strangling Gabriel and simultaneously spattering blood all over the sheets.

Now finishing up Daniel decided to Hide the body in a hallway crawl space trap door. But upon lifting the body he realized it was too heavy. Daniel proceeded to get a knife from the kitchen and a hacksaw from the garage so that he might lighten the weight of the torso by removing the legs. Tirelessly working away, only about one or two saw pulls from completely removing the right leg, Gabriel regains consciousness and begins screaming and crying due to the immense pain and horror of his live mutilation.

Seeing that Gabriel was still alive and could still feel pain, filled Daniel Petry with joy and excitement and he at that moment decided to cruelly change angles on the saw and immediately started sawing harder and faster cutting Gabriel in half. It is hoped that Gabriel fainted from the shock. Daniel tried again to stuff the boy into the crawl space trapdoor but still couldn’t manage the angle right. Now bored and frustrated Daniel decided to beat Gabriel’s top half of his corpse and stab it and carve Tibia symbols into his chest. He then left the bloody body by the hallway trap door and the legs in the hallway next to the hacksaw for whoever would be first to come home.

Shortly after Gabriel Guillerme Kuhn's brother came home and walked in, he instantly dropped to his knees crying for his mother and screaming for help, another local neighbor saw the body and warned the authorities. When the authorities arrived they found the online virtual argument the boys had in the chat and logged it as evidence. They now knew who was the aggressor and who was responsible.

Arrested shortly after Daniel Petry admitted all the crime without hesitation or remorse. Astonishing police with the amount of detail of every action and feeling he had while recounting his afternoon with Gabriel. Only getting angry and screaming once denying any claims of homosexuality. But Medical examiners had the conclusive fact that Gabriel had been sodomized multiple times. Daniel Petry was admitted to a juvenile delinquency center to be sentenced in September to only three years of socio-educational punishment, imprisoned Petry vows his revenge. when asked by Judge Pereira if he had any last words of remorse or apology for his actions or Gabriel’s family, Daniel said “Gabriel was a coward and a thief. He burns in hell right now where I sent him. And when I die I will find him in hell and finish my revenge.”

The 20,000 virtual Tibia coins roughly 1.75 US never returned.

Judge Alvaro Pereira de Andrade condemns Petry to 3 years of prison in September 2007.

After the event, many Tibia players all over the world protested massively and some quit totally repudiated the acts that Petry carried out and claimed that they were not considered potential criminals for playing the same as the killer, although Petry claimed that the game drove him crazy. A network of this game paid tribute to Gabriel. Petry's actions had placed a scar on the Tibia community.

Since his release, there is currently no record of the whereabouts of Daniel Petry. After failing to report to his supervising officer Authorities have only two theories of what has become of Daniel Petry.

1: He killed himself in order to go to hell and abuse and torture Gabriel for all eternity exacting his revenge but can't since Gabriel is implied to be in heaven.

2: More likely upon release knowing that he would be easily known and recognized he fled to another country (presumably the USA) to terrorize and victimize someone new. Interpol profilers and Daniel's psychiatrists and therapist have released a profile saying that wherever Daniel Petry is, he’s most definitely going to be online gaming, looking for his next victim.
