PF Report Points to Moraes Allegedly Anticipating Vote for Vorcaro
Federal Police leadership blocked the document and removed the delegates responsible for the report. The director-general alleges non-compliance with the president's order...
TL;DR
- A Federal Police report suggests Justice Alexandre de Moraes may have anticipated a vote to ex-banker Daniel Vorcaro in a case about medical school openings (ADC 81).
- The report was based on phone messages between Vorcaro, Fábio Faria, and Maurício Quadrado.
- Vorcaro had an interest in the case due to acquiring credit rights from Ulbra, a university seeking medical program accreditation.
- Investigative reconstruction shows Vorcaro was informed in February 2024 that Moraes would vote favorably in a May 2024 judgment.
- Communications indicated a fluctuating vote count, with assurances that Moraes and Justice Kassio Nunes Marques would vote in favor.
- Moraes and Nunes Marques ultimately voted with the rapporteur in May 2024, validating a transitional rule supporting Ulbra's requests.
- The rejected report was part of three documents commissioned by the STF President to examine relationships between certain justices and Vorcaro.
- The director-general of the Federal Police rejected the report on Moraes for being too descriptive and allegedly overriding directives.
- The removal of delegates responsible for the report and the subsequent demand for reiteration generated significant backlash and questions.
- The Federal Police leadership argued for a comprehensive approach without premature filters, while Vorcaro's defense and the mentioned cabinets have not commented.
