Victoria Furtuna graduated in Law in 2003 from the Free International University of Moldova, according to her biography published on her platform. She began her career as a prosecutor at the Nisporeni District Prosecutor’s Office. In 2006, she was transferred to the Chisinau Municipal Prosecutor’s Office, in the Botanica sector, and in 2016, shortly after Viorel Morari became head of the Anticorruption Prosecutor’s Office (PA), she was appointed prosecutor within the PA.

From 2014 to 2023, Furtuna declared substantial donations and gifts from family members totaling nearly 150,000 euros.

In October 2021, following the detention and suspension of Prosecutor General Alexandr Stoianoglo, Victoria Furtuna and Dumitru Robu were nominated by the Superior Council of Prosecutors to serve as acting Prosecutor General. After the selection process, the position went to Dumitru Robu.

After 18 years in the Prosecutor’s Office, in March 2024, Furtuna resigned in scandal from her position as an anticorruption prosecutor. She accused the Intelligence and Security Service (SIS) of sending a negative report about her activity to the General Prosecutor’s Office, labeling her a threat to the Republic of Moldova and some of her actions a danger to national security.

As a result, the Prosecutor’s Office revoked her right to access first-degree state secret information. This reportedly happened after, in January, Furtuna had opened a case regarding abuses by the SIS and the National Anticorruption Center (CNA). According to her, the two institutions fabricated and disseminated false information against judges disloyal to the ruling administration in order to take over the judiciary.
