State of Pará has the highest incidence of recorded conflicts according to the CPT. This chapter considers three of the most prominent massacres of Rural Land Users and Defenders that took place in Pará State over the last decade – Pau D’Arco, massacre of 10 landless workers; the Baião Massacre, where six rural workers and land defenders were murdered; and the killing of Amazon defenders José Cláudio Ribeiro da Silva and Maria Do Espírito Santo. These massacres help illustrate the nature and scale of some of the crimes, but are but three of hundreds of acts of violence committed in the state of Pará. The evidence and reconstructions in this chapter include that collected by photojournalist, Martin Middlebrook, for Climate Counsel (photographs, video and audio interviews with victims’ families, community members, and CPT lawyers representing the victims’ families), as well as forensic evidence from case files analysed by our legal team in Brazil.
