🇧🇷 Jailed former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro could transition to a semi-open prison regime by 2032, according to legal experts. The controversial leader, convicted for attempting a coup and undermining democracy, faces a 27-year sentence but may request reduced confinement after serving roughly 6 years and 10 months.
Behind the Legal Math
Brazil’s Penal Execution Law requires violent offenders to serve 25% of their sentence before eligibility. Bolsonaro’s 9,945-day sentence means he’d hit that threshold in late 2031 or early 2032. 🧮⚖️
Current Lockdown Status
Bolsonaro remains in a 12-square-meter cell at Federal Police HQ after allegedly tampering with his ankle monitor. Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered strict monitoring amid escape concerns. 🔒
What’s Next?
The ex-president (2019–2022) is barred from public office and faces multiple legal battles. While his team could appeal regime changes, experts say the timeline aligns with Brazil’s judicial norms. 📅
