Tim Lopes Biography

Tim Lopes is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Infielder who was born on November 18, 1950 in Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

Tim Lopes attended journalism school at the Faculdade Hélio Alonso (FACHA) in Rio de Janeiro and during his career wrote for the Rio newspapers O Globo, O Dia, and Jornal do Brasil. As part of an investigative piece in 1978, Lopes worked at a construction site on Rio’s underground Metro to highlight difficult working conditions in the stifling heat. Lopes won a Brazilian journalism award called the Prêmio Abril de Jornalismo in both 1985 and 1986 for feature stories involving football in the sports magazine Placar.

Rio journalist Jorge Antonio Barros, who has been writing about Rio’s favelas and the crime beat since the 1980s and was a colleague of Lopes at Globo, wrote that Lopes’s death served to snap him out of the dream state, to which people sometimes fall prey, of romanticizing “the malandro;” and that his death reminded people who don’t have to live in favelas under the “law of the trafficker” of the terror that exists as a daily reality.

Tim Lopes (born Arcanjo Antonino Lopes do Nascimento; November 18, 1950 – June 2, 2002) was a Brazilian investigative journalist and producer for the Brazilian television network Rede Globo. In 2002, the media reported him missing while working undercover on a story in one of Rio’s favelas. It was later learned that Lopes had been accosted by drug traffickers who controlled the area, was kidnapped, driven to the top of a neighboring favela in the trunk of a car, tied to a tree and subjected to a mock trial, tortured by having his hands, arms, and legs severed with a sword while still alive, and then had his body placed within tires, covered in gasoline and set on fire—a practice that traffickers have dubbed micro-ondas (allusion to the microwave oven).

The Globo program Jornal Nacional subsequently televised a response, including an editorial by newscaster William Bonner criticizing Gomes’s report. Jornal Nacional stated that Lopes’s recorded footage was destroyed that night in the micro-ondas and that the community at Vila Cruzeiro had asked for Lopes help concerning minors being prostituted at the baile funk in their community. Jornal Nacional also stated that Tim Lopes was the behind-the-scene producer for 2001’s “Feirão de Drogas”, so his likeness would not necessarily have been well-known. Rio Governor Benedita da Silva subsequently took Gomes off of the case.

One of the reporters working on Lopes’s team to collect undercover footage for the same investigative report was Globo journalist Cristina Guimarães. She filmed in the Rio favelas of Mangueira and Rocinha during the same time period. The report was televised in Brazil on the program Jornal Nacional on August 3, 2001. The report got a lot of attention, which in turn caused Rio’s political administration to take action. Police crackdowns followed, and dealers in the favela da Grota, and the other favelas featured were prevented from openly selling drugs on the street for a while, and some were arrested. Subsequently, the drug lords of the criminal factions controlling these areas were not happy with the decrease in revenues. (One of the dealers arrested, “Ratinho”, would later factor in Lopes’s death).
