This video features five stories from prisons and pretrial detention centers in the 1990s.
This was a time when the law crumbled, and force and fear reigned behind barbed wire.
Press huts, denunciations, escapes, lynchings, and total lawlessness—the everyday reality of those who found themselves behind bars.

You'll hear:
— how new prisoners were broken in press huts;
— how prisoners escaped through rusty barbed wire, not knowing what awaited them;
— how lynchings were carried out right in the barracks;
— how freedom could be "bought" through a fake death;
— and how even those who survived remained forever trapped within this system.

This is not fiction. This is not a movie.
This is the truth about prisons and pretrial detention centers in the 1990s—told by those who saw it all with their own eyes.
