A large amount of drugs was found on media on police chief Braz Morroni's cell phone Reproduction / Civil Police of Paraíba The indictment for abuse of authority is based on the conclusion of the investigation that the police entered the property without the resident's authorization, without a court decision and without a flagrant situation that would justify their entry. For the Civil Police, those investigated used their public function to give the appearance of legality to the action. The crime of procedural fraud was attributed because, according to the investigation, only part of the drugs found was sent for forensic examination, altering the set of evidence that would be analyzed during the investigation and in a possible criminal case. When requesting preventive detention, the Civil Police stated that "any other precautionary measure is insufficient" and that the adoption of another measure "could carry out all police work and lead to a possible escape and erasure of evidence".

According to the report, the separation was adopted to avoid procedural turmoil, confusion in the analysis of evidence and harm to the understanding of the facts.
