A summary of the Intercepts investigation into Operation Car Wash based on a trove of private communication they have received and are making available to the public.

Abstract:

Excerpt:

These stories are based on a massive archive of previously undisclosed materials - including private chats, audio recordings, videos, photos, court proceedings, and other documentation - provided to us by an anonymous source. They reveal serious wrongdoing, unethical behavior, and systematic deceit about which the public, both in Brazil and internationally, has the right to know....

This is merely the beginning of what we intend to be an ongoing journalistic investigation, using this massive archive of material, into the Car Wash corruption probe; Moro's actions when he was a judge and those of the prosecutor Dallagnol; and the conduct of numerous individuals who continue to wield great political and economic power both inside Brazil and in other countries.
