Background: Raquel was raised by his grandparents on their farm in Sao Paulo. He never knew his parents. Even though he was supposed to plow the land with his grandfather, he was usually to lazy for such physical work. And since the work he did do was so terrible his grandfather didn't allow him on the farm anymore. Instead he made him sell the crops at the market, a job he enjoyed much more. Especially since there were more girls at the market and he could talk with all kinds of people there.
Raquel's life is with little substance. He spends his morning sleeping, his afternoons in the sun selling crops of his grandfather and his evenings and nights in the town with the local guys and of course tourists. He found out quickly that if he'd only speak a little bit of Portuguese to any foreigner he could woo them quickly, be it for free drinks or a swim in the sea with a pretty girl, ironically.
Raquel lived in paradise, as he saw it at least. Everything he wanted was in the palm of his hands. Until one night he and his friends had made a campfire by the sea with some tourists...
Cause of Death: Raquel had convinced one of the girls to go out swimming with him. Unfortunately they didn't know a lost killer whale was in the neighborhood. The girl had stayed quite close to the shore as she didn't dare swim further in the sea. But of course Raquel who had done this more often swam much further, when he felt something brush past his feet he startled. This of course startled the whale which also was very scared of course, as it didn't know where it was. It started biting away at Raquel's leg. He tried to swim away, but it was too late. The whale was already biting away at his torso. Frightened the girl swam back quickly to the shore. Raquel tried swimming away but he was only sinking further in to the sea.
Later his friends and the tourists called the police who went on a patrol. The found a bloody, scared whale, but no Raquel. There was no trace of his body to be found, not even at the bottom of the sea. There was no other explanation to be found than that the whale had eaten him.
