Brazil’s top court convicts son of former President Bolsonaro for coercion

Brazil’s Supreme Court convicted Eduardo Bolsonaro for coercion related to his father’s trial, sentencing him to four years and two months. The court found he illegally lobbied the U.S. government to pressure Brazilian officials, with all five justices agreeing on the conviction. Eduardo’s lawyers disputed the verdict, claiming insufficient evidence, and he has resided in Texas since February 2025.
