    Adriellen Barbosa Lima, 22, who was shot and killed in Mineiros, in southwestern Goiás, became known for a rare case of twins with different fathers. At the time, the young woman was 19 years old, and her pregnancy resulting from heteroparental superfecundation was the 20th such case recorded worldwide up to that point.

    Adriellen was killed on April 20 at a house near the Buena Vista housing development. Joelson Ribeiro da Conceição, 23, the young woman’s partner, is the prime suspect in the crime. As of the latest update to this report on Wednesday (29), he had not been located by the police.

      To add to the other comment, albino babies have not been treated kindly in the past

        A lot of people haven’t been treated nicely because of some gene defect. And albino doesn’t even come with any mayor disabilities.

    Maybe good for gay men who are doing surrogacy and want two kids but can’t decide who to be the father. Probably not how she had her kids but yk

    A 19 year old with two kids from two different fathers. How forgetting to use contraception one night sets three lives up for failure.

    That’s honestly cool - not cool she was killed, that is tragic. But personally I’d have been thrilled to get a variety pack like that, nature is so interesting and they’d both be my kids regardless of who fathered them.

    So, not twins in the biological sense then? Is it not so that a fertilised egg must split and then two babies develop from that one egg for them to become twins? This is two separate eggs being fertilised from different men in a short time frame. All they have done is share the womb.
