On February 22, 1998, the Palace II building collapsed unexpectedly, resulting in 8 deaths and nearly 200 families homeless. Considered one of the biggest disasters in the history of Brazilian civil engineering, to this day some of the culprits have yet to be punished for their neglect. The people involved in the accident still remember the crucial moments before, during and after the collapse.
