Hi Cristiana Don't know about him, but there was one José Frederico d'Assa Castelobranco, 31 years old, from Rio de Janeiro, who in 1805, August 17, was punished by the Inquisition in Goa. He was a sargent in the Ponda Regiment, and married to Francisca de Sequeira. His crime was mocking the mysteries of the Passion of Christ in the midst of a great multitude of Gentiles. His punishment was a dose of spiritual instruction.
