Borja has said that Chevron "cooked evidence" submitted to the Ecuadorian court and that the oil giant promised to reward him by making him a "business partner" for videotapes he turned over to high-level Chevron executives in 2009. Chevron charged the videotapes proved the Ecuadorian judge, the plaintiffs and government officials had accepted bribes; however, nowhere on the tapes do any of the people accused by Chevron accept, much less, discuss a bribe. The government of Ecuador also has subpoenaed Borja and Borja's associate, Wayne Hansen who assisted in the videotaping, however, he cannot be located to serve the subpoena. Shortly after the release of the videotapes, Hansen was found to be a convicted drug felon.
