Publisher: Brennand's prison and a reflection on the Brazilian prison system.



Journalist Josias de Sousa, one of the most astute observers of the Brazilian political scene, brings, in his UOL column, one of the most important reflections on our prison system, in view of the imminent arrest of a representative of the Brennand family, who should be arriving to the country in the next few hours. Brazil has the second largest prison population in the world, second only to the United States, where the prison has become an industry, managed by the private sector.

Our prison system is chaotic, under any premise in question, starting with imprisoning only the poor, blacks and whores, leaving the white elite, who can make good lawyers, out of these hardships. Everything needs to be rethought in relation to our prison system, which means that the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights will have a huge job ahead of them. A reassessment that goes from the legislation to the conditions of incarceration. Another appalling figure is the percentage of illiterate prisoners.

Until recently, a wave of attacks broke out in Rio Grande do Norte, due to, as it is reported, protests against the appalling conditions to which prisoners were being subjected, where there would be reports of torture sessions, spoiled food was being served, in addition to contagion. provoked, possibly in relation to tuberculosis, one of the major health problems in Brazilian prisons. Here in Pernambuco, another one of those blatantly obvious reports came out, informing that better accommodation is sold in prisons like Aníbal Bruno, in addition to the existence of the figure of locksmiths, who, in fact, exercise State power in those penitentiaries, and in many others across the country, such as in Pedrinhas, in Maranhão, for example, where an organized crime faction maintains control of the situation, out of control by the State.

In a recent hearing, the Minister of Human Rights himself, Sílvio Almeida, informed that there was a tender, signed by Mr. Anderson Torres, with companies that supply meals, where a lunch was being quoted at R$ 3.50, hence the complaint of coup Bolsonarists arrested in Papuda and Coméia in relation to the quality of meals served in those prison units. For that price, you wouldn't expect much.

With the extinction of the special prison institute for those with higher education, the big question that arises, discussed by journalist Josias de Sousa, based on some possibilities of our prison system, is what would be the fate of Thiago Brennand. In ordinary prisons, there are no cigars, imported wines, individual rooms, private bathrooms and things like that... As a matter of fact, we don't know whether this Brennand even had a higher education. Possibly the bank will try to obtain a habeas corpus immediately.
