US authorities have warned that prisoner Danelo Cavalcante, an “extremely dangerous” killer, managed to escape from the Chester County Jail where he was serving his sentence last Thursday. Even, was seen walking down a street near the prison.

Who is Danelo Cavalcante and why is he wanted by the US police?
Cavalcante, 34, stabbed his girlfriend Deborah Bradao, 33, in front of their two young children. They were four and seven years old. The woman found out that Danelo had already committed a murder in Brazil in 2017. So she wanted to report it to the authorities, but the man found out and murdered her, stabbing her up to 38 times to kill her.
This wasn’t the first time he got violent in front of his girlfriend, because In June 2020, police came to her home for a fight and Cavalcante had assaulted her during the argumentEven in front of their children. Authorities issued an initial warrant for his arrest for assault and the man promised to turn himself in but never did. So the second assault happened six months later, in which Cavalcante pursued her with a knife and the woman applied for and enforced a temporary protection order.
On the day of the murder, Cavalcante was at a party. One of the witnesses walked out with one of the knives that had been used to cut the meat on the skewer and said, “He was going to get his wife.” Their daughter, now nine, was a witness at the trial of her mother’s killer and said that he grabbed the woman by the hair and threw her to the ground. “He pulled out two knives and stabbed her right in the chest, stomach…”, said the girl who called the police for help during the event. “He’s killing my mom,” he yelled at the time.
Because the authorities classify it as “extremely dangerous”, A manhunt has been launched and hundreds of local, state and federal agents are searching for him using helicopters, drones and dogs. In addition, a $10,000 reward has been offered for information leading to his capture.
