Odebrecht Spreadsheets Archived Without Being Investigated

A spreadsheet handed over by plea-bargainers from the Odebrecht construction company with names and numbers regarding "amounts to be passed along" involving 22 politicians and officials, including two justices from higher courts, hasn't been investigated by the Federal Prosecutor General's Office (PGR).
The document ended up being archived by the Federal Supreme Court (STF) in the raft of documentation regarding an investigation looking into alleged payments made to Federal Congressman Bruno Araújo (PSDB-PE Party).
The spreadsheet was submitted by plea-bargainer João Antônio Pacífico Ferreira in December of 2016 as part of a plea-bargain agreement subsequently homologated by the STF in 2017.
Pacífico, 64, was the Supervising Director of Odebrecht in the North and Northeast of Brazil. He was responsible for the company's relationships with politicians in both regions of the country, and especially in the State of Pernambuco.
