Flávio Bolsonaro, son of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, has fled to the United States. The defeated candidate feared arrest upon losing his parliamentary immunity in January. Flávio, who lost his election bid to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, left Brazil to avoid potential legal consequences. His parliamentary immunity, which had protected him from prosecution, was set to expire in January. The move follows ongoing investigations into Flávio's financial activities. His departure adds to legal challenges facing the Bolsonaro family after their electoral defeat.
