Removal of Brazilian judge Milton Lívio Lemos Salles

Overview

Judge Milton Lívio Lemos Salles of the Court of Justice of Minas Gerais (TJMG) was removed from his duties after a video surfaced showing him consuming wine and smoking with a blowtorch during a virtual judicial session. Following the incident, Salles released a video accusing the TJMG, the Superior Court of Justice (STJ), the Supreme Federal Court (STF), and Minister Alexandre de Moraes of corruption, while also alleging he was a victim of defamation.

The TJMG Special Body and the National Council of Justice (CNJ) confirmed his immediate removal and suspension, prohibiting him from accessing judicial systems or court facilities. Disciplinary investigations have been launched to determine further sanctions.

Subsequent reports indicate that Salles has a history of disciplinary issues, including a 2020 incident where he reportedly appeared at a residence in an intoxicated state to contest a professional promotion, which resulted in a formal warning in 2022. The current removal remains in effect pending the outcome of an Administrative Disciplinary Process.
