Former deputy convicted by STF for interfering in father's trial
Correio da Manhã reports that former federal deputy Eduardo Bolsonaro was sentenced on Tuesday to four years and two months in prison in semi-open regime by Brazil's Supreme Federal Court.
The conviction, approved unanimously by the STF, relates to coercion of judges of the Court. According to the tribunal, Eduardo acted from the United States with the aim of interfering in the trial in which his father, former president Jair Bolsonaro, was convicted of attempted coup d'état.
The session first determined the guilt of the Bolsonarist politician for coercion in the course of proceedings, subsequently establishing the sentencing guidelines. Eduardo Bolsonaro may still appeal the decision and file petitions for clarification.
