Key Points:
- Larissa Brito, a 25-year-old Brazilian model, was found stabbed to death in her ex-boyfriend Mathieu's car during a random customs check in Brignoles, France.
- Brito had ended their five-month relationship after discovering Mathieu's alleged ties to organized crime and previous convictions, including drug offenses.
- Prior to her death, Brito texted her mother about Mathieu showing up at her home, prompting her mother to confront him and threaten police involvement; Mathieu subsequently blocked her number.
- Authorities have arrested Mathieu and launched a murder investigation, with Brito's family organizing a fundraiser to repatriate her body to Brazil.
- An autopsy is scheduled for next week to determine the exact circumstances and timing of Brito's death.
