Juliana Marins, a 26-year-old Brazilian dancer and backpacker, tragically fell to her death from Indonesia’s Mount Rinjani after sending a haunting final message: “Mami, I love you… I’m not afraid.” Her body was recovered three days later following a grueling search operation hampered by bad weather and alleged mismanagement. Her family claims she was abandoned by her guides and spotted alive by drones hours later. While the autopsy in Bali stated she died within 20 minutes, conflicting reports and drone footage have cast serious doubts. Now back in Brazil, a second autopsy will determine if timely help could have saved her. Juliana’s family is demanding justice, calling her death not just a tragedy, but a preventable failure.
