It was only released when Marcola paid the ransom of $ 300,000. The head of the CCP was outraged with the ailments. On May 12, 2006, the eve of the attacks of the PCC, made ​​a comment in Marcola Department of Investigations on Organized Crime (Deic): "It will not be cheap."
In the survey done by Internal Affairs Civilian Police, the chief assistant, Anthony Hamilton Gianfratti, after quoting data from the kidnapping, said the crime helped set off the revolt of the CCP. "This formation rests on the file indicating serious possibility directed to erect this fact to the triggering cause of the historic and sad events that traumatized the people of Sao Paulo, as translated into attacks across the state by the CCP."

Understanding the causes of the incident is important to know what needs to be changed, "says one of the research coordinators, Fernando Delgado, the Human Rights Clinic of Harvard Law School.
