- SEAPE-DF reported a violation alert at 12:08 a.m. on Nov. 22 and filed a video showing burn damage to the monitor, with Bolsonaro acknowledging use of a soldering iron.
- In the hearing record, Bolsonaro said he experienced a “certain paranoia” and an “hallucination” attributed to medications, cited pregabalin and sertraline, denied intent to flee, and said the strap was not broken.
- Moraes’s order cited risk of escape tied to a vigil called by Senator Flávio Bolsonaro near the residence where Bolsonaro was under house arrest, following a request from the Federal Police.
- The defense petitioned for humanitarian house arrest based on a claimed episode of mental confusion and submitted medical reports, as the court authorized continuous medical care and a visit by Michelle Bolsonaro.
