He gained notoriety as a key figure in the Operation Lava Jato (Car Wash) corruption investigation, where he was implicated in a vast scheme involving kickbacks and money laundering. In 2014, Costa became a whistleblower, entering into a plea bargain agreement that allowed him to provide information about the corruption within Petrobras in exchange for a reduced sentence.
