Neto de Moura made public with controversial arguments. The mind-set was exposed to a man who had attacked his wife with a nail because she was unfaithful. "The adultery of a woman is a very grave attack on the honor and dignity of the husband" and there are, as the judge stated, societies "in which the adulterous wife is stoned to death." For Neto de Moura, the aggression in question was not serious enough in this judgment, because "in the Bible we can read that the adulteress should be punished with death."
