'''Pedro Rodrigues Filho''' (June 17th, 1954 - March 5, 2023) also known as ''Pedrinho Matador'' was a Brazilian serial killer who killed innocent people and other criminals. He was also known as '''the Brazilian Dexter''' due to his similarities to the titular character from the television series ''Dexter''. | |||
Filho has killed 71 people in total, but his true victim count could be up in the 100's. | Filho has killed 71 people in total, but his true victim count could be up in the 100's. | ||

According to fellow prisoners, Filho is a phenomenon of survival in the harsh prison regime, as a prisoner could hardly survive that long. He killed and wounded dozens of fellow criminals in order to survive. Once, he was attacked by five prisoners, killing three of them and chasing away the other two. Filho also killed a cell mate because he "snored too much" and another because he "did not like his face". To leave no doubt about his willingness to kill, he tattooed on his left arm: "I kill for pleasure", recently covered by another tattoo. | According to fellow prisoners, Filho is a phenomenon of survival in the harsh prison regime, as a prisoner could hardly survive that long.

Filho could be described, according to psychiatrists, as a psychopath - someone with no remorse and no compassion for others. However, psychopaths do not develop affection; there are chances that he was developing some for his mother and ex-girlfriend, describing him instead as a sociopath, for wanting to avenge their deaths. | Filho could be described, according to psychiatrists, as a psychopath - someone with no remorse and no compassion for others. However, psychopaths do not develop affection; there are chances that he was developing some for his mother and ex-girlfriend, describing him instead as a sociopath, for wanting to avenge their deaths. Psychiatrists who analyzed him in 1982 for an expert's report, wrote that the greatest motivation of his life was "the violent affirmation of oneself." They diagnosed him as a "paranoid and antisocial" character. | ||
After staying in prison for 34 years, he was released on April 24, 2007. Intelligence information from the National Security Force indicated that he had moved to the Northeast, more precisely to Fortaleza in Ceará. On September 15, 2011, local media reported that Filho was arrested at his home in a rural area, where he worked as a caretaker in Balneário Camboriú, the Santa Catarina coast. According to news reports from RBS news, he will have to serve eight years on charges such as riot and deprivation of liberty, committed while he was detained in São Paulo. | After staying in prison for 34 years, he was released on April 24, 2007.

In present day, Filho is at liberty after spending long years behind bars. He says he is sorry for his bad ways and that he has converted to Christianity, that he is writing an autobiography and that he has a YouTube channel, where he gives advice to young people. He lives a completely different life and spends all his time trying to get young people away from crime. | In present day, Filho is at liberty after spending long years behind bars.
