On April 18th, his minor girlfriend disclosed that she and Alves had stopped dating for several weeks before December 31st, 2023, the day they went to a New Year’s Eve party. At the party, she stated Alves was being physically abusive towards her. She advised that they went upstairs to talk because they were getting interrupted, and when she sat on the bed, he started kissing her.
