A Brazilian man is in police custody after authorities discovered his wife’s body covered in cement inside a wooden box in their home.

Douglas Lopes, 43, turned himself in to the São Paulo Civil Police on Wednesday night and confessed to having killed Amanda Gaspar, 43, his partner of 13 years.

Gaspar had not been seen since Saturday and was found dead Tuesday night after authorities received an anonymous report of a bad smell coming from the couple’s home in the Paraisópolis neighborhood of São Paulo.

Lopes’ lawyer, Vicente da Silva, told Record TV that Lopes hit Gaspar, punching and kicking him before he fell, hit the back of his head on a chair and died.

He added that his client was scared at that moment and decided to pour water, lime, bleach and chlorine on Gaspar’s body, which he wrapped with bags and blankets before covering him with cement.

Lopes put the body inside a wooden box in his living room and left the house.

“He did not try to hide the body from the courts, but from the community, because the law prevails according to which a man who kills his wife has no arguments,” da Silva said.

Neighbors told police that the couple fought constantly. Gaspar was beaten for almost 10 years, her sister told investigators.
