Majority of Brazil's Supreme Court votes to reject Bolsonaro's appeal, upholding 27-year sentence
The majority of justices on Brazil's Supreme Court panel reviewing former President Jair Bolsonaro’s appeal rejected his request on Friday. Justice Alexandre de Moraes, the case’s rapporteur, rejected all defense arguments, calling them “unfeasible,” and said there were no omissions in the sentencing. Justices Flávio Dino and Cristiano Zanin concurred with De Moraes.
