He shared a one-year-old child with the 17-year-old.
Kayky spent most of the previous day (2 Aug) at his ex’s home in Eldorado, Brazil’s São Paulo state, visiting his son and drinking with her family.
That night, his ex went to a party with a friend at about 10pm.
Kayky left soon after – but later showed up at the same party, where a fight reportedly broke out as he tried to get in.
After returning to his ex’s house, he chatted with her relatives until 3am, appearing upset and admitting he disliked seeing her at parties.
But instead of going home, he reportedly hid in nearby bushes, as reported by Need To Know.
When his ex returned at about 5am, she heard him calling out but went inside and went to bed.
After she woke up later that morning, she found him with his head trapped in the bars of her bedroom window, his body hanging outside.
A knife was found in his shorts, which police suspect may have been linked to the fight earlier in the night.
After the teen messaged his mother, she came to the scene and freed her son’s head from the bars.
Officers later arrived, seizing his phone for analysis.
Early post-mortem findings point to mechanical asphyxiation as the cause of death.
Police have classified the case as “suspicious” and are working to piece together the events leading up to the tragedy.
