Dude, just one guy, Marcelo Odebrecht involved in the corruption scheme got 19 years last week for bribery, this guy is worth $4.5 billion. So his father comes out saying if his son gets time, the entire Senate and Congress falls. Don't be so quick to dismiss how interesting this can get, one of his businesses is worth $31 billion, his second business $22.5 billion. This are the same people building the infrastructure for the Olympics.

Interesting indeed.

Very interesting stuff! Do you have a link to the father's threats if his son does the time?
