Vorcaro met Moraes twice before arrest and searched for Tremembé prison
Daniel Vorcaro met Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes twice in the three days before Vorcaro was arrested in November 2025.
The meetings took place in Brasília on November 14 and 16, according to a reconstruction based on phone records, messages and case documents.
After the second meeting, Vorcaro searched online for Tremembé, a São Paulo prison known for holding high-profile inmates, and for the judge who ordered his preventive detention the next day.
The records also indicate Vorcaro was increasingly worried about being arrested and sought ways to prevent a bad outcome for Banco Master.
Moraes’s office did not comment, while Vorcaro’s lawyers challenged the integrity of the phone data and said its chain of custody had been broken.
The accounts of the meetings remain disputed, and no further next steps are given.
