Miami, FL – Brazilian Senator Fl\u00e1vio Bolsonaro reportedly left Brazil with his family Tuesday night and was expected to arrive in Miami amid ongoing criminal investigations.<\/p>\n
Bolsonaro, 45, departed following his defeat to President Luiz In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva in Sunday’s presidential runoff election.<\/p>\n
Argentine immigration authorities confirmed Bolsonaro entered Argentina with his wife, Fernanda Antunes Figueira Bolsonaro, and their two daughters through the Tancredo Neves International Bridge.<\/p>\n
The family crossed the border at approximately 10:50 p.m. Tuesday with valid travel documents and no reported immigration restrictions.<\/p>\n
Approximately 40 minutes later, they boarded a private aircraft operated by Baires Fly S.A., traveling toward Guayaquil, Ecuador.<\/p>\n
Flight tracking information indicated an aircraft matching the description subsequently departed Ecuador toward Miami’s Opa-locka Executive Airport.<\/p>\n
The Trump administration reportedly granted visas to Bolsonaro and his family Tuesday.<\/p>\n
His departure followed a Brazilian Supreme Court order requiring him to surrender his regular and diplomatic passports.<\/p>\n
Bolsonaro faces investigations involving alleged corruption, money laundering and tax evasion.<\/p>\n
One investigation concerns allegations involving fraudulent government pension deductions and a sports betting operation. Another examines alleged financial transactions involving a banker accused of misconduct.<\/p>\n
Bolsonaro has denied wrongdoing and described the investigations as politically motivated.<\/p>\n
Lula defeated Bolsonaro by approximately 4.4 million votes in Sunday’s runoff election.<\/p>\n
Bolsonaro’s Senate term expires January 31, 2027, potentially affecting legal protections associated with his office.<\/p>\n
His father, former President Jair Bolsonaro, is serving a 27-year sentence following his conviction for attempting to overturn Brazil’s 2022 presidential election results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Miami, FL – Brazilian Senator Fl\u00e1vio Bolsonaro reportedly left Brazil with his family Tuesday night and was expected…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":440575,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[15331,86337,2811,171960,225,227,226,81940,3858,171988,123,14854],"class_list":["post-440574","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-hialeah","tag-corruption","tag-defeat","tag-election","tag-flavio-bolsonaro","tag-hialeah","tag-hialeah-headlines","tag-hialeah-news","tag-immigration-authorities","tag-investigations","tag-luiz-inacio-lula-da-silva","tag-miami","tag-money-laundering"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/440574","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=440574"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/440574\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/440575"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=440574"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=440574"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=440574"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
