Inside Colombia's Toughest Female Prison | Picaleña: youtu.be/qxnD12FozxY
Picaleña prison in Colombia, the country's fifth-largest, houses over five thousand men and women. Known for its high security, no prisoner has ever escaped. Life here is marked by strict rules, monotony, and frequent arguments among inmates. Carlos, 28, is serving 27 years for murder, drug dealing, and fraud, while his wife Lilian, incarcerated just 200 meters away, is serving time as an accessory to murder. Family imprisonment is common due to the familial nature of drug trafficking. Carlos's weekly highlight is courtyard time, where inmates can play football or do other sports.
During the day, prisoners must stay out of their cells unless they have work, leading to boredom and frequent arguments. Without a job, inmates pass the time with games involving cigarettes. Carlos struggles to get through each day. In contrast, 41-year-old Saul works in the wood workshop, having served two years of an 18-year sentence for a "false positive" killing. A former military man, Saul has grown to love carpentry and plans to work as a carpenter after his release.
