The investigations that investigate embezzlement, money laundering and criminal organization in the office of councilor Carlos Bolsonaro (Republicanos-RJ) continue to advance in the MP of Rio (Ministério Público do Rio) and the column found that the prosecution is poring over the data of the nucleus of family members of former president Jair Bolsonaro in Resende, in the interior of Rio. In particular, in the role of Guilherme dos Santos Hudson, former colleague of Jair Bolsonaro at Aman (Military Academy of Agulhas Negras) and uncle of Ana Cristina Siqueira Valle, second wife of the former president.
For having been Flávio’s advisor, Colonel Hudson was already on the list of investigators in the procedure that investigates the crack in Flávio’s former office at Alerj (Rio Legislative Assembly). However, now, the MP is also investigating his involvement in the case of Carlos Bolsonaro.
In a report by this columnist and reporters Chico Otavio and João Paulo Saconi, published in the newspaper O Globo, in 2020, it was revealed that Colonel Hudson and his son Guilherme, Carlos’ former advisor, were in the councilor’s office in October 2019 , days before attending a deposition at the MP-RJ for the investigation into the “02” office. Sought by the column, lawyer Magnum Cardoso, who works in Hudson’s defense, criticized leaks of data from the investigation and said he would not comment on the article that he called “fantastic”.
Hudson’s role as one of the possible operators of the scheme in Flávio Bolsonaro’s former office at Alerj was revealed in the podcast “UOL Investiga: Jair’s secret life”. Sister of Ana Cristina, Andrea Valle admitted, in the recordings, that she delivered R$ 7 thousand monthly in 2018 to an uncle named Guilherme dos Santos Hudson.
“Uncle Hudson also took the body off too because he was the one who caught the jackpot. He was the one who took me and picked me up at the bank”, said Andrea, indicating the existence of other operators in the scheme besides Queiroz.
The military man is the uncle of Andrea and Ana Cristina Valle, the president’s second wife. Colonel Hudson was a colleague of the former president at Aman (Military Academy of Agulhas Negras) in the 1970s. He was Flávio’s advisor at Alerj, from June to August 2018. However, people heard by the column say that he was known for years as an employee of the Bolsonaro family and has always moved with the clan.
colonel is investigated
In Flávio Bolsonaro’s procedure, Hudson had bank secrecy broken. In the breakdown of the military, it was possible to verify 16 withdrawals that totaled R$ 260 thousand. The information was revealed in a report by columnist Juliana Dal Piva and reporter Pedro Capetti, published in the newspaper O Globo, in 2020.
Withdrawals were always made in cash and with amounts greater than R$10,000 at the cashier’s mouth, on different occasions, between 2009 and 2016. Most of them, a total of 11, took place from April to October 2016. The column found that the last one was in the amount of R$ 43 thousand, also in cash. The banks informed the MP that, in some cases, they had tapes of withdrawal operations made by Hudson.
These withdrawals of amounts in excess of R$10,000 made by Hudson took place during the same period in which his wife, one son and two daughters-in-law were advisors to Flávio or Carlos Bolsonaro. Throughout the cracking investigation, the high volume of cash withdrawals is considered suspicious by investigators because the values are later “laundered” in other businesses, such as paying expenses and buying real estate.
From 2013 to 2018, the Income Tax documents for the bodybuilder Andrea Siqueira Valle were delivered to the Federal Revenue stating that her address was on Rua Erick Nordskog, in the Jardim Brasília 2 neighborhood, in Resende. This, however, is where Colonel Hudson’s house is. Andrea never lived there.
Andrea’s confidences
Andrea was a ghost employee of the Bolsonaro family for 20 years. First, she was an advisor to Jair Bolsonaro, in the Chamber of Deputies, from September 30, 1998 to November 7, 2006. Then, she was appointed to the cabinet of Carlos Bolsonaro, in the Municipal Chamber of Rio, on November 8, 2006 It remained there until September 2008.
After that, Andrea joined Flávio Bolsonaro’s office at Alerj, where he stayed until August 2018. In the last year he was appointed, Andrea’s gross salary was R$ 7,326.44, not including the benefits received.
Hudson family in the Bolsonaro offices
In the two months that he worked for Flávio at Alerj, Colonel Hudson received a total of R$ 20,800 net, and withdrew 74% of that amount. His discharge date, August 15, 2018, is the same as Andrea’s. In addition to the colonel, Ana Maria Hudson, his wife, was Flávio’s advisor for 13 years.
Colonel Hudson attended the Academia Militar das Agulhas Negras from 1973 to 1977, the same period that President Jair Bolsonaro studied there. Hudson was retired from the Army in 1998. His last post was in the Command of the 7th Military Region/7th Army Division, in Recife (PE).
When Colonel Hudson retired, he and his wife returned to Resende, a city in the interior of the state of Rio de Janeiro. A few years later, in 2005, Ana Maria Hudson, the colonel’s wife and Ana Cristina’s aunt, was appointed to Flávio’s office at Alerj. She, however, has always been a housewife.
In 2008, the then law student Guilherme de Siqueira Hudson, son of the colonel, became chief of staff for councilor Carlos Bolsonaro in place of Ana Cristina, recently separated from Bolsonaro. The colonel’s son was appointed to the post – the highest office in the cabinet – until the end of 2017.
Most of the time he was an employee of the City Council of Rio, he lived in the city of Resende and never had a functional badge. In addition to Guilherme Hudson, the son, two other daughters-in-law of Colonel Hudson were also listed as Carlos’ advisors, but they lived in Resende.
A report by Caio Sartori in the newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo, last year, showed that Colonel Hudson bought, in cash, land from Jair Bolsonaro and Ana Cristina Siqueira Valle, in 2008. BRL 70 thousand.
Note from the defense of Guilherme Hudson:
“Guilherme dos Santos Hudson’s defense repudiates again the continuation of the repeated practice of leaking information from investigations conducted by the Public Ministry of the State of Rio de Janeiro, which should by law be processed in secrecy. This practice, in addition to being illegal, is shown to be a causative instrument of profound injustices. With regard to the content of the matter, the defense reserves the right not to manifest itself, behold, it is absolutely fanciful”.
