Deolane and PCC: police point out old relationship between influencer and faction

The investigation by the Civil Police and the Public Ministry of São Paulo into money laundering and the actions of the PCC (First Command of the Capital) brought new elements that reinforce an old and close relationship between the influencer Deolane Bezerra and members of the criminal faction - and not just an alleged occasional use of the lawyer's influence and assets by criminals.

Investigation documents obtained by CNN Brasil show that Deolane's name appears directly associated with members of the core of the criminal organization on different fronts: personal relationships, professional work as a lawyer, contacts with family members at the top of the PCC and records of entries and exits in prison units.

According to the report produced by the Presidente Venceslau Sectional Police Station, investigators identified evidence of a link between Deolane Bezerra, members of the family of Marco Willians Herbas Camacho, known as Marcola, and financial operators linked to the faction.

The document names Deolane alongside Marco Willians Herbas Camacho, "Marcola", his brother, Alejandro Juvenal Herbas Camacho, "Gordão", as well as family members and people investigated for hiding assets and laundering money for the PCC.

Deolane Bezerra underwent a virtual custody hearing this Thursday afternoon (21) and is preventively detained at the Santana Women's Penitentiary, in the north of São Paulo. CNN Brasil learned from Civil Police sources that she should be transferred to a prison in Tupi Paulista, in the interior of the state.

Criminal lawyer
The investigation also points out that the influencer had long-standing proximity to people linked to the criminal faction. Investigators highlight that Deolane was a lawyer for members of the PCC on different occasions and that her name appears in police reports related to members of the organization.

In addition to his professional work as a lawyer for faction members, the police also mention records of Deolane's visits to prison units in the state of São Paulo, including prisons that contain members of the faction's top leadership.

Old connections
Another point highlighted by the researchers is the influencer's personal relationship with family members of PCC leaders. The report points out closeness between Deolane and Paloma Sanches Herbas Camacho, Marcola's niece and daughter of Alejandro Juvenal Herbas Camacho, the "Gordão".

According to the investigation, the two knew each other previously and lived in the same region. Investigators treat this relationship as another indication of the influencer's insertion in circles linked to the criminal faction.

Marcola's nephews, Paloma and Leonardo Alexsander Ribeiro Herbas Camacho, were also the subject of preventive arrest warrants this Thursday. They are considered fugitives and, according to authorities, Paloma would be in Bolivia and Leonardo in Madrid, Spain. Both had their names included on the Interpol red list.

The family link
The investigation also highlights that Deolane had a son with a man convicted and imprisoned for crimes linked to drug trafficking and organized crime. The family link is cited by the police as part of the influencer's history of proximity to members and people associated with the PCC.

For investigators, the evidence gathered throughout the investigation indicates that Deolane's relationship with people linked to the PCC would go beyond peripheral or occasional action. The assessment described in the documents is that the influencer maintained frequent and close contact with members and family members of the criminal organization even before the most recent investigations into money laundering came to light.

Other side
In a note, Deolane's defense spoke out on Thursday night (21).

Read in full:

"The technical defense of lawyer Deolane Bezerra Santos comes, with the utmost respect to the institutions of the Justice System and the Democratic Rule of Law, to provide the necessary clarifications on the events that resulted in her preventive arrest on today, 21.05.26: initially we emphasize her most absolute innocence, as well as that the facts will be duly clarified by her, at an opportune moment. For now and as due compliance, we consider them disproportionate the measures signed against Deolane and this defense panel will continue to cooperate technically with the Court to demonstrate the lawfulness of its activities as a lawyer that it is, fully trusting in the discernment, reasonableness and impartiality of the Judiciary".

On social media, the influencer's lawyer and sister, Daniele Bezerra, stated that Deolane's new arrest means persecution against the lawyer. See full note:

"Today, once again, they are trying to transform assumptions into truths and headlines into convictions. The arrest of Deolane Bezerra, on allegations of participation in a criminal organization, is born surrounded by lessons, narratives and persecutions that have been repeated for some time. Accusing is easy. It is difficult to prove. In Brazil, unfortunately, many times, one first exposes oneself, destroys one's image and condemns oneself in public opinion... and only then seeks evidence to support what has been done. And that is It is serious. It cannot be accepted that Justice is used as a spectacle, nor that people are treated as guilty before due legal process. Prison cannot be an instrument of pressure, marketing or social revenge. Anyone who knows the history, the struggle and its trajectory knows that there is a huge difference between facts and narratives created to fuel attacks.

Marcola's defense was also expressed in a note. Check it out:

"Bruno Ferullo, Marco Willians Herbas Camacho's lawyer, has come forward to clarify the facts related to Operation Vernix, launched on the morning of this Thursday, May 21, 2026, conducted by the Special Action Group to Combat Organized Crime (GAECO) of the region of Presidente Prudente, with the support of the Civil Police of the State of São Paulo. The operation falls within the scope of investigations into alleged criminal organization and laundering practices of money, involving alleged incompatible financial transactions and business connections investigated by the Public Prosecutor's Office. It is important to contextualize that this entire investigative chain originated in July 2019, when prison officers found discarded manuscripts in the sewage tank of a cell at the Il de Presidente Venceslau Penitentiary, inhabited by two other prisoners. region, Lopes Lemos Transportes Ltda. From this single mention, successive investigations unfolded that, years later, reached Marco's name. Compliance with precautionary measures does not imply, under any circumstances, a presumption of guilt. It is essential to make it clear that we are in the investigation phase. police, which relies exclusively on 'indication and suspicion', expressions that, in law, have limited probative weight and that need to be submitted to adversarial proceedings before any conclusion can be reached.

We ask the press and society to guarantee the presumption of innocence, a fundamental right of the Brazilian legal system, refraining from hasty conclusions that could harm the progress of the process and the image of those involved before any definitive judicial pronouncement."
