Overview

  • Michelle Bolsonaro filed a defamation action in the Brasília court naming Joice Hasselmann, podcaster Pedro Mendonça and Google Brasil as defendants.
  • Her suit requests removal of the Content Podcast episode from YouTube and R$20,000 in moral damages over claims that she was Jair Bolsonaro’s lover and other personal allegations.
  • On September 19, Judge Thaís Araújo Correia of the 17th Civil Court denied an urgent request to take the video down, citing constitutional protections for speech about public figures.
  • Joice publicly mocked the case, reiterated her accusations and said “o choro é livre,” while Michelle’s team accused her of seeking publicity and said Michelle will not comment during the proceedings.
  • The case continues to move through the Tribunal de Justiça do Distrito Federal, Joice has been notified to present a defense, and the video remains available with tens of thousands of views.
