Helena Ferro de Gouveia wrote that messages exchanged by Nélson Vassalo with friends before the March for Life attack had led the Public Ministry to underline the premeditated nature of the act. According to the author, messages found on Vassalo's mobile phone after the attack and his first arrest on March 21, 2026, revealed a concern in constructing a favorable version. Ferro de Gouveia reported that on March 27, a friend suggested they start disseminating that the target of the Molotov cocktail was the stairs of the Assembly of the Republic, in a protest against housing policies, and not the march.
