Carlos Moreno, retired judge-counsel of the Court of Auditors, dies

Judge-Councillor Carlos Moreno, who retired from the Court of Auditors (TdC), has died, the organization announced Tuesday in an official statement on the TdC website.

“It is with sadness that we announce the death of former judge-councillor Carlos Manuel Botelheiro Moreno,” the court said in a statement.

TdC President José Tavares recalled the “high personal and professional qualities” of Carlos Moreno, who is also classified in the text as “a great servant of the public cause.”

After retiring, he published a book in 2010, How the Government Spends Our Money, subtitled “Retired Government Accountability Judge Reviews Two Decades of Government Spending.”

Among the government expenditures he analyzed, resulting in more than 100 audit reports, were those related to Expo 98, Euro 2004 stadiums, the House of Music or the Rossio Tunnel, as detailed in a book available on Vuk’s website. .

Born in 1941 and trained among the Jesuits, he summed up the book—and, in a sense, his own journey—by Anabela Mota Ribeiro in a profile she signed in the Jornal de Negócios in 2010 as follows: “You cannot continue to be guilty of dying alone whenever there is a waste of public money, even if there is nothing illegal about it.”
