Osmar Stabile, presidente do Corinthians, não vai responder ao processo que o Ministério Público de São Paulo tentou abrir contra ele. A Justiça rejeitou a denúncia sobre o uso de dinheiro do clube na contratação de uma empresa de segurança particular.
A decisão é da juíza Daniela Martins de Castro Mariani Cavallanti, da 2ª Vara Criminal da capital. Ela entendeu que a peça do promotor Cássio Conserino “não reúne os requisitos necessários para o regular exercício da ação penal”. O MP já avisou que vai recorrer.
Os pedidos de cautelares também caíram. O Ministério Público queria bloquear bens do dirigente, afastá-lo do cargo, restringir o acesso dele ao Corinthians e limitar seus contatos e deslocamentos.
No texto da denúncia, por apropriação indébita, o promotor afirma que recursos do clube bancaram a Bear Security, empresa que fazia a segurança pessoal de Stabile — e possivelmente de parentes. A quantia citada é de R$ 721 mil, referente a pagamentos feitos de julho de 2025 até agosto de 2026.
A juíza registrou que o contrato passou pelo compliance do Corinthians, com finalidade de segurança do presidente, algo comum e previsto no estatuto. “A narrativa ministerial não ultrapassa o campo da conjectura”, escreveu, ao tratar da suposta destinação particular do dinheiro.
Ela também apontou que os depósitos foram feitos direto à contratada, com nota fiscal, registro contábil e comprovação do serviço. “Não há demonstração de que os valores tenham sido apropriados pelo denunciado ou incorporados ao seu patrimônio pessoal.”
Por fim, lembrou que irregularidade administrativa não se converte em crime automaticamente: a conveniência da contratação e o cumprimento de normas internas ficam no campo da governança, com controles estatutários, disciplinares ou cíveis.
