NEW: Influencer dragged from her home and executed in front of her dad while she was being investigated over the murder of a retired cop
Evelyn Lima Dantas, 21, was dragged out of her home by two men who broke in and repeatedly shot her on the sidewalk in northeast Brazil
The gunmen then spray-painted “TCP” on the front of the house, a reference to Terceiro Comando Puro, one of Rio de Janeiro’s major criminal groups
Dantas was being investigated over the July 29 murder of retired police officer Antonio Anildo Alves da Silva, who was shot by four hooded men outside a supermarket
Investigators suspected Dantas helped the shooters before the killing
Dantas had previously been arrested on suspicion of drug trafficking for the gang
Investigators are now looking into whether her murder was an act of retaliation
