Fachin Gives Federal Police 24 Hours On Vorcaro's Phone Data
The despacho, Pet 16.704 and Pet 16.662, also orders the prosecutor general to report the phone data's custody chain and current state.
- Fachin, the STF's chief justice, signed the despacho on September 12, 2026.
- Daniel Vorcaro, a banker under investigation, is the source of the phone data at issue.
- The order follows Fachin's Sept. 9 ruling in a related case, SL 1946.
Why it matters: A court forcing police to explain evidence custody is doing oversight the police failed to do themselves.
