Visa Revoked for Brazilian Professor After Arrest for Shooting BB Gun at Synagogue Near Yom Kippur Service

A Harvard Law School professor, Carlos Portugal Gouvea, a citizen of Brazil and previously an associate professor at the University of Sao Paulo Law School, has been ordered to leave the United States voluntarily after his visa was revoked following a reported incident near a synagogue. According to reports, Gouvea fired a BB gun in front of Temple Beth Zion on October 7th before the Yom Kippur holiday.

Gouvea’s actions took place the day before Yom Kippur, leading to an arrest by ICE Boston Enforcement and Removal Operations. The incident occurred near a synagogue during what is considered a significant religious observance period for many Jewish individuals worldwide. Upon investigation, authorities informed the institution that Gouvea was unaware he was shooting his BB gun next door to a religious site or about its sacred nature due to not knowing it was the day before Yom Kippur.

The Department of State subsequently revoked Gouvea’s visa following this incident. He had pleaded guilty last month to charges related to illegal use of an air rifle, as per U.S. Department of Homeland Security records.

There is no obligation to provide sanctuary or continue admitting individuals involved in such incidents into the United States, according to statements released by DHS officials on the matter.
