"They Can Come after Me, They Won't Find Anything", Bolsonaro Says about Investigation into Son Flv
During US trip, president says that criminal investigations are targeting his son

President Jair Bolsonaro (PSL) said this Thursday (16) that he is the ultimate target of the advancing investigations into his son, senator Flavio Bolsonaro (PSL-RJ), whose bank records show atypical activity from 2007 to 2008.
According to the president, the investigations are "lashing out" at Flávio to harm his government. In light of a recent court decision that lifted the bank secrecy from Flávio and his advisors, the president casually offered up his bank records.
"Doing justice? Who wants to get me? Come on top of me. They want to lift my bank secrecy; I know that they have to have a fact, but I will open my own bank records. They won't get me," said Bolsonaro in Dallas, Texas.
The Rio de Janeiro Public Ministry will examine evidence that indicates Flávio's cabinet participated in significant money crimes from 2007 until 2018 when the president's son was a Rio de Janeiro city councilperson.
