Kat Torres was sentenced to eight years in prison and is being held in a prison in Bangu, Rio de Janeiro
With the promise of “love, money and self-esteem”, Kat Torres offered coaching services to women all over Brazil. Her life as a model and influencer was filled with international travel and luxury, which gave her ammunition to manipulate her followers into acting according to her advice.
Kat Torres began to be investigated in September 2022, when two young Brazilian women who lived in the same house as the former model in the United States were reported missing - triggering a search operation by the FBI and the girls' families.
In the documentary "From Like to Captivity: The Rise and Fall of an Instagram Guru", produced by the BBC news agency, women tell how they were trafficked and enslaved by the Instagram guru. The content is available on the BBC News Brasil channel on YouTube.
