Magazine: Messages Show Party Linked to Businessman and Supreme Court Judge
Listen to the story
A magazine says it has found messages about a party.
The party was for a Brazilian judge named Kassio Nunes Marques.
A businessman named Vorcaro organized the party, the magazine says.
The magazine says there were paid escorts at the party.
Vorcaro has asked Brazil's top court to look into this problem.
He wants the court to find out who leaked his phone data.
Leaked means someone shared private information without permission.
Police and prosecutors are also looking into Vorcaro.
They think he may be part of a sex work network.
A network is a group of people who work together.
Police found a message about a 'flight of women.'
The message said the flight should leave in the morning.
This case is now a big story in Brazil.
People want to know more about the messages.
The Supreme Court has not yet said anything about this.
