Brazil's Supreme Court granted Jair Bolsonaro house arrest due to health problems while serving his 27-year sentence for coup attempt
Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes allowed former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro to serve his 27-year sentence for coup attempt under house arrest for 90 days due to failing health. Bolsonaro has been hospitalized since March 13 for pneumonia and kidney problems, with his condition stemming partly from a 2018 stabbing incident. The decision reversed previous rejections of similar requests from Bolsonaro's legal team.
