247-  "You're always trying to clip my wings." That was the last sentence Roberta Brasil, 56, said she heard from her daughter, student Roberta Jérsyka Oliveira, before she was arrested for participating in the coup attempt on January 8th, which resulted in the invasion and destruction of the Three Branches of Government headquarters. reporter This is from the Metrópoles website.

The mother begged her not to travel from São Paulo to Brasília that weekend. Considering this an affront, she blocked her daughter's social media accounts to avoid seeing the posts that would be made about the large demonstration called by Bolsonaro supporters against the victory of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT).

The mother awaits the decision of Minister Alexandre de Moraes, of the Supreme Federal Court (STF), regarding the fate of her daughter, who is imprisoned in the Federal District Women's Penitentiary, known as Colmeia. Jérsyka was arrested in flagrante delicto and may have her temporary detention converted into preventive detention or be released with the use of an electronic ankle bracelet. So far, among the nearly 1.500 prisoners, Moraes has kept 740 people in prison and released 335 with ankle bracelets.
