Glamorous lawyer known for reenacting gangster clients’ cases online is raided by feds over suspected ties to criminal underworld

A glamorous lawyer who has amassed a following online for reenacting her gangbanger clients’ cases is suspected of helping out the criminals she defended in court.

Viral attorney Gabriela Vieira Serafin’s home in the southern Brazilian city of Florianopolis was raided by drug enforcement agents on Tuesday morning as investigators suspect she may have used her privileged access to inmates to pass messages to and from gangsters on the outside.

Serafin was not home at the time and has not yet been charged with a crime — however police discovered and seized two cell phones, SIM cards, USB drives and memory cards hidden inside a child’s glove in her bedroom, according to NewsX.

Serafin’s mom, who was at the property, confirmed that the evidence belonged to her daughter and forensic experts are now examining the data. Her stepfather, who was also present for the 6 a.m. raid, was briefly detained and then released.

Serafin became internet famous as “Advogata” — a Portuguese portmanteau of the words “lawyer” and “cat” — posting first-person videos online depicting drug busts, home invasions and gang rivalries.

In one widely shared clip, she played the part of a woman allegedly caught weighing drugs inside an apartment. She then described alleged police violence that her client claimed had taken place during the arrest.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

This is why 'not guilty' was invented.

I am going to have to defer to Laz to see if she is guilty or not guilty.

Smart + Beautiful = DANGEROUS

I guess you can't hold it against her that some of her client are behind bars.

I enjoyed looking at her photo.

Problem is...

I still have no understanding of who she is or what this FR post is about.

Well - she is closer to my definition of “glamorous” than the last couple of women so described in articles linked here.
