Isis Valverde Stalking Suspect Held in Preventive Custody After Repeated Condo Intrusions

Overview

• Exclusive TV images show Cristiano Rodrigues Kellermann entering Valverde’s gated community on separate occasions this year, once posing as her “cousin” and later returning with gifts.
• He told police he had pursued the actress for roughly 20 years and hired a private detective to obtain her address and other personal data.
• He was detained in flagrante on December 16 inside the condominium; prosecutors cited aggressive behavior, a judge converted the arrest to preventive custody, and a psychiatric assessment was authorized.
• The defense says Kellermann previously underwent compulsory hospitalization for substance dependence and is seeking placement in a custodial hospital rather than release.
• Valverde thanked authorities and emphasized her family’s safety, as new reports highlighted Brazil’s 95,000-plus stalking cases in 2024 and actor Marcos Pitombo detailed his own complaints and protective order.
