During an interview conducted in January, Jair Bolsonaro stated he would serve 27 years of prison for his involvement in a coup plot against Brazil. The government alleges that Bolsonaro orchestrated events leading to the 2020 presidential election, specifically through communication and actions that destabilized the political landscape. Investigations revealed a series of communications and actions that prosecutors believe were designed to undermine the election results. The charges against Bolsonaro include conspiracy to overthrow the government and interference with the electoral process. The legal proceedings are ongoing, and the exact sentence is still being determined.
