Brazil Charges Bolsonaro in Sophisticated Scheme to Subvert 2022 Election

Brazil's prosecutor-general has charged former President Bolsonaro and 33 others with attempting a coup after his defeat in the 2022 election. The accusations involve a plot to poison current President Lula, assassinate a Supreme Court judge, and provoke the January 8, 2023, riots. The next step entails Brazil's Supreme Court examining the charges. If upheld, Bolsonaro could potentially receive a 28-year prison sentence. The court aims to finalize the trial by the conclusion of 2025, potentially impacting Bolsonaro's aspirations for the 2026 presidential election.
