Jairinho and Monique trial reaches sixth day in Henry Borel case

The trial of Jairo Souza Santos Júnior, known as Jairinho, and Monique Medeiros entered its sixth day on Saturday, May 30, 2026, at the II Tribunal do Júri in downtown Rio.

The session resumed at 3:15 p.m. Thirteen of the 27 scheduled witnesses have been heard so far. The fifth day ended at 4:18 a.m. on Saturday after nearly 20 hours of proceedings.

Expert Luiz Carlos Leal Prestes stated that the domestic accident theory is completely ruled out. He said: "The domestic accident is totally discarded. There is no domestic accident. This is a fanciful thing."

Leniel Borel, Henry’s father and a city councilor, reported that his son showed resistance to returning to his mother’s house on recent weekends. Henry allegedly said Monique Medeiros was not good and only agreed to stay after she promised to look for another house.

Monique left the courtroom after feeling ill during the display of autopsy photos. Jairinho also exited citing discomfort.
