What Happened With Gabriel Kuhn And Daniel Patry

In the year 2007, a very unfortunate incident happened in Brazil, where Daniel Patry and Gabriel Kuhn were involved. 

In the case, a boy was murdered by a 16 year old viscious teenager in a way that you cannot imagine in so many ways over a very petty reason and people that get to know about the incident are usually left in shock.

In the incident, which happened in 2007, Gabriel Kuhn, who was just 12 years old, was killed by Daniel Patry, who was 16 year old in ways that you cannot imagine. He was dismembered, sexually assaulted and bled to death because of an online game that was famous at the time in Brazil. 

The two boys were neighbors, said the authorities, and because of the fact that they played online games together, Gabriel Kuhn and Daniel Patry were extremely close, but because of one single mistake in the game, everything changed and it caused a lot of bad things to happen. 

The game that they played together was Tibia, which is an online multiplayer game where real money can be used. 

The two were gamers and loved playing the game, which is a medieval themed, massively multiplayer online people playing game that was released in January of 1997. 

The game is one of the oldest medieval European inspired games that allowed users to explore the world while completing quests and killing monsters.

This game is so old that it has been translated into more than 20 languages and has more than 1 million registered users. This game is mainly played in Europe up till this date and was one of the first ever 3D games that was released. 

Talking about the incident, the two boys were involved in some money borrowing and after that, things just went south.

Daniel Patry, the 16 year old, was mentally unstable, and became extremely angry over the small incident, which was when Gabriel borrowed some money from him in the game and assured him that he would get paid by the end of the week.

However, when the 12 year old boy failed to repay, the 16 year old just had a breakdown and started acting very weird. 

The amount of money that he borrowed was just around 10,000 digital coins, which was around 1 USD when converted into real money, and because he could not pay the money back on time, the 16 year old acted in such a weird way that he threatened the 12 year old boy.

After he failed to repay, the 16 year old went to the house and forcefully entered the property. He then started attacking the boy and at one point he made it sure that he was regretting all the decisions that he had made. 

The 16 year old boy beat him up so much that he left him in blood. He also sexually assaulted the 12 year old at one point and raped him too. Before killing him, he brought him into the bedroom, where he slit his throat.

The boy was killed and he left the house.

The mother of the 12 year old boy came back home and when she opened the room, where her son usually stays in, she found his dead body and started screaming right away.

She called the authorities, who rushed to the scene and helped the mother because of how severe the case was.

An investigation was launched right away by the authorities after it was realized that another teenager was behind the horrifying case. 

Upon the arrest of Daniel Patry, it was found out by the authorities that he decided to kill the 12 year old boy, who was identified as Gabriel Kuhn, because he did not want anyone to know that he was behind the killing.

He told the authorities that he had no intentions of killing Gabriel, but because he told him that he would go to the authorities to report him for beating him up and sexually asaulting him, he decided to kill the 12 year old boy with hopes of avoiding prison time.

The authorities asked Daniel on what he used to kill Gabriel, and when it was revealed, it was found that he only used a threat to slit his neck, which made the 12 year old boy bleed to his own death

During the investigation, the authorities said that the boy was sexually assaulted before he was killed. There were also signs of brutal force being used, which means that he was beaten up pretty badly by Daniel. 

Why Did Daniel Patry Kill Gabriel Kuhn?

Preliminary investigations revealed that Daniel Patry killed Gabriel Kuhn because he borrowed around 10,000 coins in the game that they played together. 

The mother of Gabriel confirmed that her son and Daniel used to go to a local internet shop together to play games, but she said that she had no idea about the money that her son had borrowed from the 16 year old, who had a lot of mental issues.

The police also concluded that there was no foul play in the scene and the real reason why Gabriel was killed is because of the small amount of money that he had borrowed from Daniel to play the online game, where you can buy and sell anything for free.

The police did not reveal any other information about the incident. 

How Did The Parents Of Daniel Patry React? 

An interview was also carried out for the parents of Daniel Patry, who are people that are compassionate, and when asked about their son, the father said that they did notice a lot of behavioral changes in the son, but because they were just thinking that he was going through puberty, they did not think about him in that way. 

After finding out about the horrifying incident, the parents of Daniel Patry were left in complete shock, particularly in disbelief. They also noted to the police that they told him to seek help from a local psychiatrist, but because he was a very stubborn kid, he refused to go after one session and started bunking his classes.

The parents of Daniel Patry also helped out in the entire investigation, making sure that the authorities brought justice to the victim of the incident, which was caused by the wild actions of Daniel Patry.
