5. The Report They Buried
-
Lu par :

De :
Michael Garcia, a former US Attorney, is hired by FIFA to investigate corruption in the 2018 and 2022 World Cup bids. He spends two years interviewing witnesses across the globe. His report runs to 350 pages. FIFA's response is to publish a 42-page summary that Garcia himself calls "materially incomplete" and "erroneous." Then he resigns.
In this episode:
- Who Michael Garcia is, what FIFA hired him to do, and why his findings were buried
- What the full Garcia Report says about Qatar's bid — the Aspire Academy payments, private jets for FIFA officials days before the vote
- What it says about Russia's bid — destroyed computers, missing evidence, a trail that went cold
- Garcia's resignation in protest, and the 2017 leak that finally put his findings into the public record — long after the World Cups were awarded
Key documents cited:
- The Garcia Report (leaked 2017)
- FIFA Ethics Committee summary, 13 November 2014
- Garcia's resignation statement
