Lawyer accuses Moro's friend of brokering deal, newspaper says


In a statement, the judge praised a friend and criticized a report by Folha de S.Paulo







Attorney Rodrigo Tacla Duran, who worked for Odebrecht from 2011 to 2016, accuses labor lawyer Carlos Zucolotto Junior of brokering parallel negotiations with the Lava Jato Task Force.

Zucolotto is a friend and best man of the judge Sergio Moro and was an associate of an office with Rosangela Moro, wife of the judge. The lawyer is also defender of the prosecutor Carlos Fernando dos Santos Lima in labor action that runs in the STJ (Superior Court of Justice).
According to the Folha de S. Paulo newspaper, Zucolotto's talks with Tacla Duran would involve easing the penalty and reducing the fine that the former Odebrecht lawyer would have to pay in an award-winning deal.


In return, according to Duran, Zucolotto would be paid by means of box two. The money would be used to "care" for the people who would help him negotiate, according to a correspondence between the two that the former Odebrecht lawyer says he has in his files.

Zucolotto denies the charges. The prosecutors cited by Tacla Duran claim that they do not even know Moro's friend. Judge Sergio Moro pronounced, in a note, on the Folha de S. Paulo report:

"About the subject 'Lawyer accuses Moro's friend of intervening in an agreement' written by the journalist Monica Bergamo and published on 08/27/2017 by the Folha de São Paulo newspaper, I hereby inform the following:

- lawyer Carlos Zucoloto Jr. is a serious and competent lawyer, works in the labor area and does not work in the criminal area;
- the report that the lawyer in question would have dealt with the fugitive accused Rodrigo Tacla Duran on an award-winning collaboration agreement is absolutely false;

- none of the members of the Federal Public Ministry of the Task Force in Curitiba confirmed any contact of said lawyer on said matter or on any other matter because in fact no contact occurred;

- Rodrigo Tacla Duran did not present to the journalist responsible for the matter any proof of his untrue statements and his report finds no support from any other source;

- Rodrigo Tacla Duran is accused of money laundering of millions of dollars and had his preventive detention decreed by this judge, having taken refuge in Spain to escape the action of Justice;

- the lawyer Carlos Zucoloto Jr. is my personal friend and I regret that his name is used by an accused fugitive and in an irresponsible journalistic matter to denigrate me; and

- regrets the credit given by the journalist to the false report of an accused fugitive, having been warned of falsehood by all the persons mentioned in the matter.

Curitiba, August 27, 2017.
