Details To Do With Novels About Americans In Mexican Prisons

By Lelia Hall


Being sentenced to serve time in prison is one of the hardest experiences individuals have had to experience in their entire lifetime. Some are given a short period to serve in jail while others even end up spending the rest of their lives in these facilities. There are many Americans who have been made to serve in Mexican prisons and their stories have not been anything close to a fairytale. Below is information concerning novels about Americans in Mexican prisons.

One marine soldier wrote a book describing his time in one of the most famous Mexican jails. He claimed that he was wrongly arrested from the possession of a short-gun and has never seen such a hard time in his entire life. He wrote and said that he spent almost four months chained to his bed and during these times a lot of threats were made to his life and his family as well and no proper healthcare was given.

Other authors write and say that in the event that one is discovered to be from America, then they become a common target and provisions such as food are denied to them and the other inmates gang up against them and hence they becomes victims of all the inmates which is a very sad situation.

According to other authors, some even go as far as being raped by almost all the individuals in the prison and they claim that it is just but a miracle to get out of these jails in one piece. This is due to the fact that most American citizens are just executed and their bodies put in bags for disposal.

There is usually hardly any way out as the experience is just characterized by daily torture and being treated as though they are animals. The lucky few are those who get the chance to escape. These are the few who find ways to run away. However, in the event that one is got in the act, then they are just killed on the spot. This means that very few prisoners make it to tell their stories to the rest of the world.

In the various descriptions in different novels, the descriptions of these prisons are just amazing. Americans who have been unfortunate enough to serve time here say that in most of the cells, there are no windows; inmates are made to sleep on the concrete floor as no sort of bedding is provided and the situation is just pitiful. If one does not adjust with time, he may develop depression and this may be long term.

According to the ex-American inmates, one of the factors which led to the high rate of violence inside these Mexican institutions is the inmates unlimited access to all types of weapons and money. In this way, they are able to do whatever they want and just by tipping the soldiers, they can get away with almost anything.

To sum up the above there has been a high rate of Americans being tortured in various prisons in Mexico. There are many soldiers who have lost their lives due to this. They should be saved by their governments who should take sure that no one of their citizens in contained in a foreign prison.
