Marco Antônio Braga Caldas
Marco Antônio Braga Caldas, 51, is a former sub-officer of the Brazilian Navy who made headlines after being expelled from the military following his conviction for participating in the January 8, 2023, insurrection against the Brazilian government. He was sentenced to 14 years in prison for crimes including violent abolition of the democratic state, coup d'état, and armed criminal association. His expulsion marks a significant disciplinary action by the Navy, as he is the first military personnel to be removed from service as a direct consequence of involvement in the attacks on government buildings. Prior to his conviction, Braga Caldas had been in the reserves since 2021 and was living in Santa Catarina.
