One of the men accused in the murder of a Brazilian soccer star says he killed Daniel Correa Freitas because the athlete was trying to rape his wife. Brittes’ daughter said she met Freitas a year ago, but never was involved with him, the UK Sun reported. Freitas' genitals were reportedly severed after his death. “The man had two deep cuts on his neck, his head was nearly beheaded, and his genitals were severed.”Freitas was playing on loan from Sao Paulo for second-division Sao Bento, according to ESPN. The midfielder began his career at Botafogo before moving to Sao Paulo in 2015.
