If you're looking for something related to Stoic philosophy but not directly about it, Dying Every Day: Seneca at the Court of Nero is a good biography of Seneca that will give you context to his writings and is also an entertaining read.
I don't know, you could always google "Odebrecht - US Department of Justice" and do some reading. One of the docs said the FBI New York Field Office is conducting the investigation.

It looks like they're being discreet themselves, so who knows. Odds are they're already on it, so I'm not sure getting yourself involved would accomplish anything--but it's your call, not mine.
>well I just don't want to see my country crash and burn im genuinely concerned about what's happening, and I have no idea how to help.
Yep. It sure sucks, doesn't it. You have to remember corruption flourishes because critics are coerced into silence and often lose their lives for it. Oh well, nothing new there:
Dying Every Day: Seneca at the Court of Nero
>Dying Every Day is a portrait of Seneca’s moral struggle in the midst of madness and excess. In his treatises, Seneca preached a rigorous ethical creed, exalting heroes who defied danger to do what was right or embrace a noble death. As Nero’s adviser, Seneca was presented with a more complex set of choices, as the only man capable of summoning the better aspect of Nero’s nature, yet, remaining at Nero’s side and colluding in the evil regime he created.
>Dying Every Day is the first book to tell the compelling and nightmarish story of the philosopher-poet who was almost a king, tied to a tyrant—as Seneca, the paragon of reason, watched his student spiral into madness and whose descent saw five family murders, the Fire of Rome, and a savage purge that destroyed the supreme minds of the Senate’s golden age.
Food for thought. :-|
