Please don't generalize. I believe there are fourteen separate countries in South America, each with its own laws, constitution, police, and judiciary. What's legal in Brazil might not be legal in Paraguay or Uruguay.
In my late wife's native country (in South America), for example, there are no local police. All police are the national police, and they are technically a branch of the military. I have no idea what the status of the police is in Brazil.
