The minister, of the (Supreme Federal Court), asked for a view (more time to study the case) on Monday (24) and interrupted the trial of the hairdresser Débora Rodrigues dos Santos, during the scammers of January 8, 2023.
The score so far is by Deborah’s conviction to 14 years in prison, according to the votes of the ministers (rapporteur of the case) and. Fux has up to 90 days to return the case for the resumption of the trial.
The hairdresser was being tried in the virtual plenary by the first class of the Supreme, in a session that would go until next Friday (28). In this judgment model, the ministers deposit their votes for a certain period of time, but there may be a request for view (more time for analysis) and highlighting (bring the case to physical judgment).
In addition to Moraes, Dino and Fux, the first class comprises ministers Cristiano Zanin and Carmen Lúcia.
two more years ago, they identified the hairdresser as author of the statue’s graffiti, which is in front of the Supreme’s headquarters. The Supreme Court values the value of the work, one of the main artist Alfredo Ceschiatti, between R $ 2 million and R $ 3 million.
Moraes, rapporteur of the case, stated that “the defendant was arguably aligned with criminal dynamics [do golpe]as is inferred from the video released by journalistic websites, in which the accused vandalizing the sculpture ‘The Justice’ and, then, showing the conspicuous hands of red lipstick, celebrates, smiling at the crowd that had invaded the Praça dos Three Powers and other public buildings. “
According to Moraes, the PF has identified that Deborah deleted content from her mobile phone before being arrested and that this conduct “represents a strong evidence of attempted obstruction of justice, since, in criminal investigations, electronic devices often contain essential evidence, such as messages, calls, location and interactions on social networks.”
“It should be noted, in fact, that, the defendant, as shown in photography already referred to in the previous item, holds a mobile phone, demonstrating pride and happiness in relation to the act of vandalism that had just practiced against sculpture maximum symbol of the Brazilian judiciary.”
Deborah was arrested in March 2023 and even made a request from her own fist apologizing to Minister Alexandre de Moraes.
The hairdresser stated in the letter that he was unaware of the statue’s symbology and his material value and apologized for ignorance.
He also stated that he came to understand the symbolic and historical meaning of the monument to the country and to justice. The hairdresser also argued that today she knows that the statue has a name, which she said unknown before.
Deborah is married, has two children, and has residence in Paulínia, in the interior of São Paulo. Currently, it is detained at the Rio Claro Women’s Resocialization Center, one hour away.
Last November, Deborah’s name again appeared in another event related to an undemocratic attack. Police found a message that mentioned her, who died by committing a bomb attack next to the statue of justice. There is, however, no indication of relationship between the two.
“Lost, Mané,” the phrase stained in the sculpture was a reference to the response of the STF minister to one, the minister told the man who approached him in New York.
