In March 2017, Attorney General Rodrigo Janot asked the Supreme Tribunal to withdraw the secrecy of the depositions.[20] The following month, on 11 April, STF Minister Edson Fachin accepted the request of the A-G and withdrew the secrecy of investigations.[21] On 12 April, federal judge Sergio Moro followed the same line as the Supreme Tribunal and withdrew the secrecy of denunciations involving people without foro privilegiado [pt] status[b] from the jurisdiction of judges of first instance.[c] Moro said in his order, "The judiciary should not be the guardian of shadowy secrets. Moreover, publicity prevents unlawful, regrettable leaks, which are difficult to control".[22][23]
According to the lead prosecutor of Operation Car Wash, Deltan Dallagnol, the leniency agreement provided the "greatest refund in world history".[24] Odebrecht and Braskem pleaded guilty and would pay fines of 3.5 billion dollars, the equivalent of 12 billion reals, 80 per cent of which would go to Brazil.[25]
In 2018, the STF took from Lava Jato the so-called End of the World denunciation in which 415 politicians from 26 parties were mentioned, but merely one was convicted. It generated 270 investigations, but only five of them became criminal proceedings.[26][27]
^Delações do fim do mundo literally, "end of the world denunciation". Delações is the plural of delação, meaning, "whistleblowing", "informing", or "denunciation". A denunciation could be either about individuals (delação premiada) or about a company, where it would be called a "leniency agreement".
^Foro privilegiado – literally, "privileged forum", and officially known as Foro especial por prerrogativa de função, this is a special status defined in the Constitution and accorded to certain high officials (President, Deputies, Senators, and certain others) that allows them to skip lower courts in the case of a criminal case against them and proceed directly to the higher courts.
^A judge of first instance (primeira instância) is a judge in a lower, or trial court, whose decision may be reviewed by an appellate court (court of the second instance).
