Sérgio Moro: And Minister Luiz Fux, whom I particularly admire as a judge, today emphasized in his vote, still in progress, what, in my view, is the original sin of this whole process: the question of the jurisdiction of the STF (Supreme Federal Tribunal).
Sérgio Moro: I have said, and with respect to the STF (Supreme Federal Tribunal), that it was a big mistake for it to assume that jurisdiction to try this case and likewise that of the January 8 protesters, and the reason is very simple.
In the case in question, Bolsonaro is a former President, he is no longer President, so the basis for special jurisdiction by virtue of office no longer applies.
Sérgio Moro: And let us make clear that the STF (Supreme Federal Tribunal) had a jurisprudence embodied in Súmula 394.
Sérgio Moro: Súmula 394 extended the special jurisdiction by virtue of office beyond the period in which the office was held.
