In June 2020 Campos took over the investigation into the possible economic crimes of Emeritus King Juan Carlos I.[7]

In December 2020 Campos presented his candidacy to replace Luis Navajas as lieutenant prosecutor of the Supreme Court.[3] Campos was the only candidate and the Fiscal Council supported his appointment at its meeting on 22 December.[14] On 12 January 2021 the Council of Ministers ratified the decision of the Fiscal Council, being officially appointed.[15]
