Brazil's STF reaches majority to convict Congresswoman Zambelli
- On May 10, 2025, Brazil's Federal Supreme Court reached a majority decision to convict Congresswoman Carla Zambelli and impose a 10-year prison term for her involvement in breaching the electronic system of the National Council of Justice in 2023.
- The hacking scheme reportedly involved Zambelli orchestrating the creation of a fabricated warrant for the detention of Minister Alexandre de Moraes, with confessed hacker Walter Delgatti executing the breach.
- Three justices, including Alexandre de Moraes, Flávio Dino, and Cristiano Zanin, voted for conviction and stripping Zambelli's mandate after appeals, while two others had yet to cast their votes.
- The STF also voted 5-0 to sentence Zambelli to 5 years and 3 months in a semi-open prison regime, amid defense claims of conviction without irrefutable evidence calling it "absolutely unfair."
- The conviction could lead to Zambelli's removal from Congress after appeals, with ongoing trials and defense motions indicating further legal proceedings ahead.
