Overview
- Three of five justices — Alexandre de Moraes, Flávio Dino and Cármen Lúcia — voted to find Jair Bolsonaro guilty, securing a majority, while Luiz Fux dissented.
- The panel is set to fix penalties next, with estimates placing Bolsonaro’s exposure at roughly 42 to 43 years in prison for charges including attempted coup, attacks on the democratic order and criminal association.
- Bolsonaro remains under house arrest as authorities prepare for possible transfer to a Brasília maximum-security facility such as Papuda once sentences are defined.
- Seven close allies are also implicated as part of the alleged core conspiracy, including Alexandre Ramagem, Almir Garnier, Anderson Torres, Augusto Heleno, Mauro Cid, Paulo Sérgio Nogueira and Walter Braga Netto.
- Supporter vigils continue as appeals are planned, and President Donald Trump criticized the case, likening the proceedings to efforts he says targeted him.
