"I'm going to devour the mother of the birthday girl," wrote the player to a friend, "and the father [of Allana] is here."

The as-yet-unidentified friend replied: "Is he asleep?" and says he'll get thrown out of the house.

Correa then sent a photograph of himself in bed with Brittes' wife, who appeared asleep, to which his friend warned him about the potential danger of his actions saying, "the guy is going to come and beat you up."

The police investigation is ongoing.
