Bolsonaro's Downfall: High Stakes at Brazil's Supreme Court

Brazil's Supreme Court is on the verge of delivering a verdict in the high-profile trial of former President Jair Bolsonaro. Justice Alexandre de Moraes has accused Bolsonaro of orchestrating a criminal group with the intent to overturn the 2022 presidential election results.

The charges against Bolsonaro are severe, including attempts to violently abolish democracy, organizing a coup, and inciting the January 2023 riots. The trial unfolds as Brazil's judicial system works to identify the responsible individuals, with Bolsonaro facing a potential 40-year prison sentence.

Political ramifications loom, as Sao Paulo Governor Tarcisio de Freitas advocates for a congressional move that could offer Bolsonaro amnesty, signaling ongoing power struggles ahead of future elections.
