And the judges didn't bend for the US sanctions. I hope this becomes an example for the world.

@ United States of America, that's how you fucking do it.

He'll be 97 when he gets out, if he lives that long.

Good riddance.

On the less positive side: one of the judges disagreed with everything, tens of thousands of supporter were supporting him in the street when the ruling happened, parliament allies are trying to make an amnesty law for him. I hope Brazilian people keep fighting for their democracy hard because the attacks will never stop.

As an American I find it difficult to understand how a working justice system can convict a criminal.

When Brazil respects democracy more than America.

We're fucked, y'all.

See, America? That's how you do it. Learn from Brazil.

Bolsonaro has been sentenced to 27 years and three months, Trump was elected for his second term. Now who is bigger democracy? Maybe because Brazil plays REAL football?

Brazil showing the U.S. how it's done.

Americans:

Life in prison effectively. If only we could start putting our leaders in jail for their crimes.

It's nice to see traitors held accountable for their actions. Maybe one day the US will take note.

MORE OF THIS!

Meanwhile Merrick Garland somewhere is sitting happy as a pig in shit.

If he was American, he would've just gotten another term

So basically Brazil is less of a banana republic than the USA.

If only The Big Short ended like this. Well done Brazil!

27 years seems pretty lenient given what he was convicted of. I realise that he'll probably never be free given his age but I don't think that the defendent's age should affect the sentence, especially when they still have their supporters like Bolsonaro.

How delicious.

mfw corrupt as hell Brazil is less corrupt than the USA.

Basically a death sentence. He won't live long enough to serve his full sentence.

Hahahahaha!

"That's very much like they tried to do with me. But they didn't get away with it at all."

Infuriating

60 days to file, 5 to appeal after the filing, yadayadayada.

He's still basically out on bail, don't act like he was remanded into custody today, people.

Seems really low

Now do Donny 2 Inches !!
