Flávio Bolsonaro, son of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, arrived in the United States with his family shortly after his party's loss in Brazil's presidential election. His arrival in the Miami area comes after Brazil's Supreme Court ordered him to surrender his passports as part of an ongoing money-laundering investigation. Bolsonaro has not been formally charged in the investigation and has denied any wrongdoing.
Prior to his departure from Brazil, the U.S. State Department confirmed that visas would be issued to Bolsonaro and his family. The details surrounding his journey and arrival were outlined by the BBC's Ione Wells.
