Suicide note

[edit]
Translation Original
The reason I am writing these few lines is not to justify the wrong I have done, but it is only in this way that I can prove to the entire world, and can challenge those who wanted to prove that I was a homosexual, I was not, (nem vou ser por esse comentário foi que aconteceu toda essa tragédia) I don't feel like a normal person, after these lies have been told about me.

Here I write my final words, Poderam said I was even more demented so I (recomendo a alma de todos) to God.

And I hope God will forgive me for what I did, (mais era minha única solução.) I hope this letter will be sent to J. Gomes, so he can disclose it to the public, and it may advise everyone not to bear false witness against his neighbour.

(Paro aqui porque não tenho mais condições.)

I wish everybody a life in dignity which I had not.

I can't even avenge the death of my son (se não tiver condições).

(Tava difício viver não aceito na sociedade pelo simples caboclo que me levantou um falso mais agora está morto.)

I beg forgiveness from all who try to understand me. I did not do it for fun, but was forced to.

(Ainda continuando deixo um forte abraço) and a kiss to all my family, and my whole family no matter the religion, though get all together, and create a strong current of prayer so that God may take care of my soul.


GOODBYE

TO

EVERYONE

Signed Jenildo

O motido deu escrever estas poucas linhas, não é pra justificar o erro que eu fiz, mais só assim eu consegueria provar pra todo mundo, e deixo o desafio pra qualquer um que queira provar que eu era homo-sexual, nem eu era, nem vou ser por esse comentário foi que aconteceu toda essa tragédia eu não me sinto como pessoa normal depois desse falso que levantaram contra minha pessoa.

Aqui eu escrevo minhas palavras finais, Poderam dizer que eu fiquei louco mais mesmo assim eu recomendo a alma de todos para Deus.

E espero que Deus me perdoe por esse ato que eu fiz, mais era minha única solução. eu espero que essa carta seja enviada para J. Gomes para que ele divulgue para o público, e que aconselhe a todos a não levantar falsos do seu próximo.

Paro aqui porque não tenho mais condições.

Para todos desejo uma vida de dignidade a qual não tive.

Eu posso até não vingar a morte do meu filho se não tiver condições.

Tava difício viver não aceito na sociedade pelo simples caboclo que me levantou um falso mais agora está morto.

Eu imploro perdão de todos que tentam me compreender. eu não fiz esto por prazer fiz forçado.

Ainda continuando deixo um forte abraço e um beijo pra toda minha família, e que toda minha família não emporta a religião, más que todos se reúnam e construam uma forte corrente de oração para que Deus tome conta de minha alma.

ADEUS

PARA

TODOS
