Authorities from Rio’s Special Police Station for Tourist Support identify the escort as the “Queen of Goodnight Cinderella” in the criminal world.

“Goodnight Cinderella” is local slang for Rohypnol, GHB, or any date-rape drug that renders victims vulnerable to assault or robbery.

The 23-year-old is suspected of drugging, robbing, and beating a Frenchman in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

But this isn’t the first time, with Sitas reportedly having dozens of entries for this kind of scam on her criminal record.

Cops say she would target exclusively foreign tourists.

The escort is estimated to have stolen over £13,000 worth of goods.

Sitas was allegedly accompanied by two women when she approached her victim in the Lapa neighbourhood.

The Frenchman said they talked and drank before going to Copacabana, where they continued to drink, before heading back to the city centre.

He went on to explain that at some point during the night, he lost consciousness.

But when he woke up, he was in A&E with multiple injuries.

The victim was later transferred to a larger facility.

Sitas stole more than £6,680 from him, according to police chief Patrícia Alemany.

She said: “She carefully picks her foreign victims.

“In this case, she drugged the French tourist and stole his phone and bank card.

“She made withdrawals totalling over 50,000 reais, and he was ultimately assaulted.

“Francini has countless cases of this type of crime and is known in the criminal underworld as the ‘Queen of Goodnight, Cinderella’.

“With her arrest, we hope to see a drop in this kind of crime, since multiple victims have identified her.”

Francini is the mother of a two-year-old boy, according to her social media.

She was caught at Rio’s Pedra do Sal landmark with a vial of the sedative drug clonazepam.

“She was at the tourist spot looking for a new victim,” said the police chief.
