OPINION – The need to know
Finally, the Odebrecht case has a fiscal view. Developing this investigation was not an easy task, because on the way it suffered all kinds of abuses; investigated and judges put all kinds of obstacles with the intention that the investigations died in their cradle or did not reach the bottom. It has been a long journey that, however, has not reached the end, since, as mentioned, some facilitated the obstruction of the investigations. This is the biggest corruption scandal of the last decades, thus becoming a historical event. Entire governments have been investigated, leaving a third off the list, but at least it is progress. The Judicial Branch now has the outcome in its hands. The great surprise for the country will be that the judges deliver true justice. This will undoubtedly be your biggest challenge, your acid test. For more than five years, the Odebrecht case has been a prominent headline in all the media throughout the country and, therefore, the Public Ministry should consider the idea of submitting a report to the Nation on its findings, seized assets and persons involved, as well as what was pending and why. The country needs to know, not only to inform itself, but to closely monitor this still unfinished process LA PRENSA. Apl.13
