Overview
- A federal court rejected the defense amparo on Tuesday, June 23, 2026, so Omar Bravo will stay in the Penal de Puente Grande as the criminal process proceeds.
- The defense had sought the amparo to undo his vinculacion a proceso and replace preventive detention with a different precautionary measure, but the court refused that request.
- Prosecutors in Jalisco say the investigation remains open and could move to a sentencing stage around October 2026, with officials estimating a possible 5–10 year prison term if a conviction is reached.
- Victim statements published earlier allege incidents from about six years ago when the girl was 10, including claims of inappropriate touching under clothing; those allegations form the core of the aggravated child sexual abuse case.
- The case has already cost Bravo public roles and honors, such as removal from Guadalajara World Cup ambassador lists and the Chivas mural, and his legal team can still seek a review by a higher court as the Fiscalía completes its evidence-gathering.
