Feliciano’s controversies in Acre
In 2015, the pastor had confirmed his participation in the Aviva Rio Branco event, at Concha Acústica. However, shortly before the event, Feliciano canceled his trip to the state claiming to be ill.
At the time, a group of protesters promoted a ‘gay kiss’ at the event site to repudiate the presence of Feliciano, who is known for having homophobic statements.
In January of this year, the Attorney General’s Office issued a favorable opinion to convict the deputy in a case that condemns him for encouraging discrimination against the LGBTQIAP+ community.
