Flavio Bolsonaro Faces Multiple Investigations in Brazil After Fleeing to Miami

Brazilian senator Flavio Bolsonaro faces multiple investigations, including probes into alleged money laundering and potential foreign interference in his failed presidential bid, after fleeing to Miami following his election defeat. His passports have been seized amid the escalating legal scrutiny. The most prominent investigation involves alleged corruption and foreign-exchange violations tied to financing a film about his father, with payments reportedly exceeding $10 million routed through a US-based fund. A separate probe examines money laundering linked to a friend through online gambling, while a new inquiry ordered by a Supreme Court justice looks into possible foreign support for his campaign. The investigations are overseen by different Supreme Court judges, fueling disputes between the court and the Bolsonaro family, who claim political bias. The US connection is significant, as investigators seek financial records from American entities to trace the flow of funds in the movie-financing case.
