If she is a tree hugger that leans to the Left,, She is not going to listen to some Right-wing Gringo..

If she will listen,, send/email her any/all of the US embassy warnings you might find from Jgood's link,,

If she's not to squimish,, suggest she read some of the NEWS at MiliteryPhotos.net,, do a search for BRAZIL.. Some of it is graphic,, but it gets the point across..

If all else fails,, suggest she get a DNA sample kit,, it's helpfull for forensic identification..

Good Luck,,
