The Vigário Geral Massacre ("" in Portuguese) occurred on August 29, 1993 at the "favela of" Vigário Geral, located in the north of Rio de Janeiro city.
 A death squad composed of Rio Military Police was responsible for carrying out this act of violence.
 The group supposedly did so out of revenge for the killing of four police officers two days prior, who were allegedly involved in the extortion of drug traffickers.
 After arriving to the "favela" of Vigário Geral on August 29, 1993, the squad spent two hours traveling around wearing hoods over their heads and sporadically shooting at local residents, leaving 21 innocent people dead.
 "Among the deceased were seven men playing cards in a bar and eight members of a family, including a 15-year-old girl, killed inside their home."
 After the federal and Rio de Janeiro state governments commenced a series of official investigations that year, charges were brought against thirty three people: twenty-eight military policemen who were believed to belong to infamous death squad ""Cavalos Corredores"" (the "Galloping Horses"), three civil policemen and two civilian employees of the civil police.
 By 1998, the number of people charged increased to the total of fifty-two, but only two had actually been convicted thus far.
 Six policeman had been convicted as of 2003, yet according to a BBC newspaper published in August, only two were actually in prison as the other four were released with the expiration of the time periods for their appeal hearings.
