Coup-case turn: Ex-Brazil president Bolsonaro says 'hallucinations' led to ankle-monitor tampering; denies escape attempt
Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, arrested for tampering with his electronic monitor, claimed a "psychotic attack" due to medication changes. This contradicts his earlier admission of "curiosity." Justice Alexandre de Moraes authorized his detention, fearing he might flee before starting a 27-year sentence for plotting to overturn the 2022 election. Bolsonaro denies planning to escape.
