Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro's Health Plunges, Says Hospital Bulletin
Hey there! A recent health update from DF Star Hospital in Brasília, posted on Bolsonaro's social media, suggests the ex-Brazilian prez ain't doing so hot. The bulletin states, "Our patient has shown signs of clinical deterioration, escalating blood pressure, and degraded liver function tests." Seems like he's still struggling with intestinal obstruction.
This grim health report arrives as investigations into Bolsonaro's alleged coup attempt during the last presidential election heat up. On March 26, Brazil's Supreme Court gave the green light to initiate criminal proceedings against former prez Jair Bolsonaro for the suspected coup attempt in 2022.
Remember back in February when the news broke out that the Attorney General's Office accused Bolsonaro of plotting a coup? Well, the investigation accuses him of orchestrating an attack not just on the system, but specifically targeting the current president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Thirty-four people are rumored to be involved in the coup plot.
In a past incident, the police charged the former Brazilian president in a jewelry case.
Now, let's dive a bit deeper into the legal wrangles for ol' Jair. If the current trials proceed, he'll face charges on five counts:
- Staging a coup.
- Involvement in an armed criminal organization.
- Attempting to abolish the democratic rule of law through violence.
- Causing damage characterized by violence and a grave threat to state's assets.
- Undermining designated heritage sites.
These charges stem from an indictment by Prosecutor-General Paulo Gonet, following a federal police investigation that pinned Bolsonaro atop a criminal organization active since at least 2021. The investigation also alleges support for a scheme targeting President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes. If convicted, he might be staring down the barrel of up to 40 years in jail, but his sentence would likely be reduced considering procedural factors[1]. That's all I've got on that for now! Stay tuned for more updates on Bolsonaro's health and legal proceedings.
