False Accusation in the Maria da Penha Law: What Bill 5128/2025 REALLY says [and what it DOESN'T ...
Are you seeing news reports saying that "a woman could face up to 8 years in prison for false accusations under the Maria da Penha Law"?
Well... that's NOT in Bill 5128/2025.
In this lesson, I—a criminal defense lawyer specializing in the defense of men accused of domestic violence—explain, item by item, what Federal Deputy Júlia Zanata actually proposes in Bill 5128/2025.
📌 What you will understand in this video:
• Why this news is being disseminated incorrectly
• What is actually written in the draft text
• What is the only new point (article 18, III) — and why the rest already happens in practice
• What already exists in the law to hold false accusations accountable
• The difference between malicious denunciation (article 339 of the Penal Code) and false reporting of a crime (article 340 of the Penal Code)
• How to identify reliable information about the Maria da Penha Law so as not to be misled by sensationalist headlines
My goal here is to clear up the confusion, provide legal certainty, and show what really matters to those responding to proceedings under the Maria da Penha Law.
If you are being investigated or are responding to a lawsuit in this context, this lesson is essential.
