No episódio de hoje do Ufologia de Quintal, a gente viaja até o interior do Nordeste brasileiro para relembrar um dos relatos mais intrigantes da casuística ufológica nacional: o suposto caso de abdução de Zé Tota.Entre estradas de chão batido, noites silenciosas e céus incrivelmente estrelados, surge a história de um homem simples, conhecido na região, que teria vivido uma experiência inexplicável — luzes no céu, perda de tempo, marcas no corpo e memórias fragmentadas de um contato que mudaria sua vida para sempre.O caso ganhou força dentro da ufologia regional e passou a circular entre pesquisadores independentes, curiosos e moradores que já relatavam avistamentos na área. Estaria Zé Tota diante de um encontro imediato? Um episódio de abdução? Ou tudo não passaria de uma construção psicológica alimentada pelo imaginário popular nordestino?Neste episódio, analisamos:O contexto geográfico e cultural da região;A tradição de relatos ufológicos no Nordeste;Os detalhes da narrativa de Zé Tota;Os argumentos que sustentam a veracidade do caso;E os contrapontos céticos que levantam dúvidas sobre o ocorrido.Prepare o café, puxe a cadeira para o terreiro e venha olhar para o céu com a gente.

JK Cast # 218 - Crise de Liquidez Global à Vista? CEITEC, Reforma Agrária, Brasil Quintal dos EUA
Na Argentina, um fenômeno ganha força, sobretudo nesta época do ano: rodas de samba, típicas do Brasil, multiplicam-se pelo país. Já são 38 rodas, todas conduzidas por argentinos que cantam em português como se estivessem no Brasil. As apresentações acontecem também em bairros de Buenos Aires considerados berços do tango. Márcio Resende, correspondente da RFI em Buenos AiresArgentina. Buenos Aires. Samba. Quem acha que há algum erro nessa sequência, é porque não conhece um movimento que tem ganho, ano a ano, mais e mais adeptos: em toda a todo o país, já são 38 rodas de samba, metade delas em Buenos Aires.“Hoje podemos dizer que o movimento do samba em Buenos Aires é muito importante, e uma coisa notável é que a maioria das rodas de samba é conduzida por argentinos que gostaram de samba, que tiveram a oportunidade de entrar em contato com o ritmo”, explica à RFI Guillermo Schneider, integrante de duas rodas de samba, a “Bom Malandro” e a “Malandragem”, a primeira de argentinos, formada há 25 anos.Guillermo, já rebatizado Guilherme pelos amigos brasileiros, comete um pequeno erro: absolutamente todas as rodas de samba – em bom português – são lideradas por argentinos, assim como a grande maioria dos músicos. No público, os frequentadores conhecem as letras e têm samba no pé.“Eu estava de viagem pelo Brasil quando escutei, pela primeira vez, um grupo de três pessoas tocando samba ao vivo. Eu nem sabia o que era. Eu fiquei apaixonado. Me aproximei e lhes perguntei o que estavam fazendo. Quando me responderam que faziam samba, pensei que queria aprender", recorda Guilherme, sobre a sua viagem a Porto Seguro, em 1998. "Voltei a Buenos Aires e comecei a estudar. Com o passar do tempo, muitas pessoas que assistiam o nosso samba começaram a formar os seus próprios grupos, e colegas meus, professores de música, passaram o conhecimento adiante para muita gente”, descreve.Mestre RenatoPor trás de tantos músicos argentinos dedicados ao samba, há um brasileiro. O carioca Renato dos Santos chegou a Buenos Aires em 1992 e foi o primeiro brasileiro a revelar aos argentinos como fazer. Na época, não havia rodas conduzidas por argentinos. Hoje, não há mais brasileiros liderando rodas.Renato também foi mestre de Guilherme e continua a ensinar os truques. “Fui o primeiro brasileiro que inventou de dar oportunidade aos músicos argentinos para tocarem. Mas eu não gosto de falar isso, porque eu ensino, mas não sou professor teórico. Não me considero professor deles, mas fui considerado assim por eles", indica Renato à RFI. "Eu explicava: ‘não, esse instrumento se toca assim'. Outra coisa que eu fazia era o ritmo. Um, dois. Marcava o tempo para eles. Em vez de tocar assim, mostrava o ritmo e o tempo, coordenados”, recorda.Hoje, Renato dos Santos é o convidado ilustre de qualquer roda de samba em Buenos Aires. Considerado uma eminência do gênero, é chamado ao palco. Quando aparece entre o público, uma roda de sambistas o cerca.“Eles me fazem chorar. Muitas vezes, estão tocando em lugares importantes. Apareço como cliente, mas não me deixam pagar. Mas eu lhes digo que o que aprenderam comigo já passou. O pessoal não aceita”, emociona-se Renato.O samba e o TangoNão é a canção homônima de Caetano Veloso, mas poderia inspirar outra. Nesse movimento de argentinos que entram num mundo tipicamente brasileiro, como o do samba, existe outra curiosidade: várias apresentações dessas rodas de samba acontecem em bairros historicamente ligados ao tango. É quando a queixa do bandoneon vira o choro da cuíca.Nessa fusão cultural dos dois ambientes, algumas rodas de samba acontecem, por exemplo, a poucos metros da casa onde morou o mítico Carlos Gardel, ao lado de espaços de referência do tango e perto de salões da típica dança argentina. No Centro Cultural Macedônia, num dia se dança tango, no dia seguinte, samba. Esse é um dos palcos do Samba na Calçada, a mais raiz de todas as rodas na Argentina.O líder do Samba na Calçada é o argentino Cristian Mansilla, que bem podia ter estudado o bandoneon do tango, mas preferiu a percussão e cavaquinho do samba.“Tem um paralelismo entre o samba e o tango com base na sofrência. A sofrência na poesia é muito parecida tanto no samba, quanto no tango. A diferença está na música, na forma de lidar com essa sofrência. O tango é uma sofrência de morrer e a música acompanha esse sentimento”, aponta Cristian à RFI.“Já no samba as letras também têm essa sofrência, mas a música é para frente, do tipo ‘levanta, sacode a poeira e dá volta por cima'”, compara.Leia tambémFenasamba e Federação de Carnaval de Paris assinam parceria para promover samba e carnaval na FrançaEnergia vitalMas o que leva um argentino a escolher um ritmo brasileiro, tão distante da própria cultura? “O samba me escolheu”, corrige Cristian. “Foi o samba que me escolheu porque eu sempre ouvi muita música, mas o samba me pegou para eu ficar colado nesse movimento, os instrumentos, a música, a harmonia, a poesia. Isso só me acontece com o samba. Escuto muitos outros gêneros de música, mas, quando escuto o samba, sinto uma coisa batendo aqui no peito que não acontece com nenhuma outra música. Chega a arrepiar”, desabafa Cristian.Laura Peirano tornou-se cantora de samba há três anos, quando formou o grupo Quintal do Galo. Ao falar sobre samba, a argentina abre um imenso sorriso para explicar as razões para a sua decisão.“Principalmente, essa energia que acontece nas rodas de samba, de cantar no formato de roda. Não temos isso aqui na Argentina. No folclore argentino ou no tango, essa energia de cantar em roda é como se fosse um coração, batendo o tempo todo com todas as pessoas ao mesmo ritmo, como um coração gigante”, descreve Laura à RFI.“Na roda de samba, você só precisa caminhar, bater a palma da mão e já está dançando. Todos os sambas têm o ‘laialaiá'. Você pode cantar sem saber a letra toda. Então, é muito mais democrático”, considera. “Essa felicidade do samba é um antídoto para este mundo que tem pego fogo e no qual tentamos sobreviver diante de muitas coisas tristes”, observa Laura.Nível altoE, afinal, as rodas de samba conduzidas por argentinos deixam a desejar ou o nível é alto como no Brasil? Para tirar essa dúvida, o mestre que ensinou a todos, Renato dos Santos, tem a resposta:“São de alta qualidade. As rodas de samba são excepcionais. Você até acha que está no Brasil", constata. "Inclusive tem grupos aqui em Buenos Aires que gravam os seus discos no Rio de Janeiro”, conta Renato.O aluno pioneiro, Guillermo Schneider, naturaliza a universalidade do samba: “Em todo o lugar do mundo, tem alguém que gosta de samba. Em todo lugar da Argentina, tem alguém que gosta de samba. Por quê? Porque o samba não tem fronteira. É um estilo que fala do povo, fala das pessoas, do coração das pessoas", salienta. "Você não tem que falar com o psicólogo do compositor porque ele escreve simples. Ele escreve direto. Ele conta a história da sua vida, conta o seu dia-a-dia. Ele conta o que é a vida no Brasil no morro e, hoje em dia, no asfalto”, conclui Guilherme.

A Manatee County judge sentenced Ashley Benefield to 20 years in prison after she was found guilty of manslaughter for the 2020 shooting death of her husband, Doug Benefield. The case, widely known as the "Black Swan murder" trial, captured national attention due to its complex nature and the high-profile background of the defendant, a former ballerina. The jury convicted Ashley Benefield in July, following an emotional trial that focused on the state of mind of both the defendant and her late husband. In her testimony, Ashley Benefield spoke of a tumultuous and abusive marriage, and the defense brought in several experts to corroborate her claims of domestic violence. One key piece of evidence presented during the trial was the couple's ongoing custody battle over their child, which had contributed to their escalating tensions. Court documents revealed that the couple's relationship was fraught with marital issues, and domestic abuse had been a recurring theme. Defense witnesses included Dr. Jason S. Quintal, the couple's marital counselor, and Bruce Ferris, a domestic violence expert. Dr. Quintal testified that Doug Benefield had been "domineering at times" and controlling, despite Ashley Benefield's efforts to distance herself from him. Ferris, a former detective, highlighted the heightened danger when a domestic violence victim is trying to leave an abusive partner, particularly when children are involved. "He was very much still wanting this to work and their plans were to move to Maryland," Dr. Quintal said, emphasizing Doug Benefield's determination to restore the relationship despite Ashley Benefield's negative views of him. However, prosecutors sought to discredit the defense's claim of ongoing domestic abuse. They argued that Ashley Benefield could no longer be considered a victim of domestic violence, as she had been living separately from her husband for some time before the fatal shooting. The prosecution also questioned whether her actions were a response to abuse or a result of other factors, such as financial stress and custody issues. Bruce Ferris addressed this by explaining the concept of "appeasement" in domestic violence situations, where victims may try to placate their abusers even after leaving them. "Certainly, if you're asking if they're acting happy, is she still a victim of domestic violence, definitely," Ferris stated. "We have to remember that domestic violence comes in layers through the years of events." In addition to the testimony on domestic violence, a ballistics expert presented a simulation of the shooting based on crime scene photos and case documents. The expert concluded that there were no inconsistencies in Ashley Benefield's account of the incident, supporting her claim of self-defense. A retired medical examiner, Dr. Emma Lew, also weighed in, providing her expert opinion that the shooting could have been a case of self-defense. She explained that, given the circumstances, Ashley Benefield might have believed she was in imminent danger. Despite the defense's arguments, the jury found Ashley Benefield guilty of manslaughter, rather than murder. The judge sentenced her to 20 years in prison, with credit for time served, and ordered 10 years of probation to follow. The case has drawn attention to the complexities of domestic violence and the challenges of understanding the dynamics within abusive relationships. As the sentence was handed down, Ashley Benefield's supporters expressed mixed emotions, with some feeling that the verdict was too harsh, while others believed it was a necessary step toward justice. The trial has left many reflecting on the delicate balance between victimization and accountability in cases of domestic violence. #BlackSwanMurder #DomesticViolenceAwareness #AshleyBenefield #ManslaughterTrial #ManateeCounty Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

"Certainly, if you're asking if they're acting happy, is she still a victim of domestic violence, definitely," Ferris stated. "We have to remember that domestic violence comes in layers through the years of events." In addition to the testimony on domestic violence, a ballistics expert presented a simulation of the shooting based on crime scene photos and case documents. The expert concluded that there were no inconsistencies in Ashley Benefield's account of the incident, supporting her claim of self-defense. A retired medical examiner, Dr. Emma Lew, also weighed in, providing her expert opinion that the shooting could have been a case of self-defense. She explained that, given the circumstances, Ashley Benefield might have believed she was in imminent danger. Despite the defense's arguments, the jury found Ashley Benefield guilty of manslaughter, rather than murder. The judge sentenced her to 20 years in prison, with credit for time served, and ordered 10 years of probation to follow. The case has drawn attention to the complexities of domestic violence and the challenges of understanding the dynamics within abusive relationships. As the sentence was handed down, Ashley Benefield's supporters expressed mixed emotions, with some feeling that the verdict was too harsh, while others believed it was a necessary step toward justice. The trial has left many reflecting on the delicate balance between victimization and accountability in cases of domestic violence. #BlackSwanMurder #DomesticViolenceAwareness #AshleyBenefield #ManslaughterTrial #ManateeCounty Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

A Manatee County judge sentenced Ashley Benefield to 20 years in prison after she was found guilty of manslaughter for the 2020 shooting death of her husband, Doug Benefield. The case, widely known as the "Black Swan murder" trial, captured national attention due to its complex nature and the high-profile background of the defendant, a former ballerina. The jury convicted Ashley Benefield in July, following an emotional trial that focused on the state of mind of both the defendant and her late husband. In her testimony, Ashley Benefield spoke of a tumultuous and abusive marriage, and the defense brought in several experts to corroborate her claims of domestic violence. One key piece of evidence presented during the trial was the couple's ongoing custody battle over their child, which had contributed to their escalating tensions. Court documents revealed that the couple's relationship was fraught with marital issues, and domestic abuse had been a recurring theme. Defense witnesses included Dr. Jason S. Quintal, the couple's marital counselor, and Bruce Ferris, a domestic violence expert. Dr. Quintal testified that Doug Benefield had been "domineering at times" and controlling, despite Ashley Benefield's efforts to distance herself from him. Ferris, a former detective, highlighted the heightened danger when a domestic violence victim is trying to leave an abusive partner, particularly when children are involved. "He was very much still wanting this to work and their plans were to move to Maryland," Dr. Quintal said, emphasizing Doug Benefield's determination to restore the relationship despite Ashley Benefield's negative views of him. However, prosecutors sought to discredit the defense's claim of ongoing domestic abuse. They argued that Ashley Benefield could no longer be considered a victim of domestic violence, as she had been living separately from her husband for some time before the fatal shooting. The prosecution also questioned whether her actions were a response to abuse or a result of other factors, such as financial stress and custody issues. Bruce Ferris addressed this by explaining the concept of "appeasement" in domestic violence situations, where victims may try to placate their abusers even after leaving them. "Certainly, if you're asking if they're acting happy, is she still a victim of domestic violence, definitely," Ferris stated. "We have to remember that domestic violence comes in layers through the years of events."

Defense witnesses took the stand Monday in the trial of Ashley Benefield, a 32-year-old former professional ballerina accused of murdering her husband, Doug, in 2020. Benefield's defense, led by attorney Neil Taylor, aims to portray her as a frightened wife who acted in self-defense against an abusive husband. Benefield herself testified last Friday, admitting to killing Doug but claiming it was in self-defense after he allegedly became physically abusive. On Monday, Taylor called several witnesses to support this defense. The first to testify was Bruce Ferris, a mental health professional specializing in domestic and family issues. Taylor asked Ferris to determine whether Ashley's alleged behaviors fit the definition of a domestic abuse victim. Ferris affirmed that they did, citing actions such as “acting deferential and subservient during joint therapy sessions, but decisively different in individual sessions... being exposed to threats, intimidation, holding down, humiliating, cursing.” “These are again techniques of compliance, not wanting to poke the bear,” Ferris explained. “They don't want anyone to know, and they don't want their abuser to be angry by disclosing.” Next on the stand was Vincent Vizzaccaro, a Sarasota and Lakewood Ranch-based realtor. Doug had previously contacted Vizzaccaro about purchasing a home in Lakewood Ranch, near where Ashley lived. Judge Matt Whyte initially ruled Vizzaccaro's evidence, emails between him and Doug, as hearsay and temporarily dismissed him. However, after deliberation, Whyte overturned this decision, allowing Vizzaccaro to testify. Vizzaccaro revealed that Doug wanted to buy a house directly behind Ashley's while they were separated, suggesting a potential motive for control. Dr. Jason Quintal, a counselor who worked with both Doug and Ashley, followed Vizzaccaro. Quintal shared his professional conclusions about Doug, stating that Ashley expressed fear towards him and that Doug maintained an “alpha-male” persona. “Doug occurred as somebody who was domineering... super-controlling,” Quintal testified. The testimony later shifted focus to the shooting incident itself. Michael Haag, a forensic shooting reconstruction expert, discussed the bullet trajectories. According to Haag, two bullets struck Doug from different angles, and other objects in the room were also hit by bullets, indicating that Ashley moved during the shooting. “There's not a physical possibility for the firearm to have been stationary between just those two shots,” Haag said. Closing arguments from both sides are scheduled for Tuesday. Ashley Benefield faces charges of second-degree murder and could be sentenced to 25 years to life in prison if convicted.
