In October 2026, several leadership changes occurred within Brazilian state prosecutor offices. In Tocantins, Maria Cotinha Bezerra Pereira was elected Corregedora-Geral of the Ministério Público do Tocantins for the 2027/2028 biennium. In Amazonas, Leda Mara Nascimento Albuquerque was reappointed as the Procuradora-Geral de Justiça of the Ministério Público do Amazonas for the 2026-2028 term following a vote by the Colégio de Procuradores de Justiça and an appointment by Governor Roberto Cidade.

Later in the month, public prosecutors across various states initiated new regional activities and investigations. The Public Prosecutor's Office in Goiás announced the “Month of MPGO” to engage the community on issues of education, health, and human rights. Concurrently, several offices launched investigations into government contracts: the Public Prosecutor's Office in Paraná is examining a 10.6 million reais contract involving Celepar, the office in Espírito Santo is probing an 8.6 million reais contract related to state park concessions, and the office in Acre is investigating a vessel rental contract in Tarauacá.
