Barbadillo Jail in Peru or The Last Stop For Personal Ambitions

Barbadillo Jail was created specifically for the former President Alberto Fujimori. A jail with garden, kitchen and a saloon for specific coordinated visitors and without contact with other more unfortunate criminals. But in the end, there is no freedom to exit or to think that you are free.

A jail!

This special penitentiary location now just received his fifth President in its history as resident; Martin Vizcarra, who will join, Ollanta Humala, Alejandro Toledo and Pedro Castillo. Fujimori is already gone from this earth, but what started like a single person jail, now has four presidents living together. I think that not even the most pessimistic and legalistic architect could imagine this historical moment inside his creation draft. The contradiction is that the country with more presidents in actual jail at the same time is not an Oasis of legality.

Months ago a person was arrested with 400 kilograms of pure cocaine being transported in a bus, and during the interrogation of the police, he confessed that the drug was for his “personal consumption”, after that he was let go, free. The ex National prosecutor: Patricia Benavides was suspended to interfere in the proceedings of the investigation of her sister, an important general prosecutor as well, who after getting generously paid is syndicate as releaser of arrested Drug Dealers. After the two sisters appealed the suspension, now they are back in their offices to “fight for the justice”. As well, Juan Luis Cipriani Thorne, the ex Cardinal of Peru, who after being prosecuted by the Vatican in secret for the rape of a teenager who helped in the church, he was regarded with the keys of the city of Lima by the mayor of Lima. Now, possibly the next president of Peru, Rafael Lopez Aliaga, who is not just one of the most debt tax holders of the country, and ex member of the Sodalicio Cristiano, an ex Catholic organisation shut down for the abuse of hundreds of kids and teenagers put there by their parents with the hope of a moral and faith based education.

But Lopez Aliaga, is the mayor that created the most debt in the history of the Municipality of Lima.

So at this point, I think that the jail of Barbadillo holds criminal ex presidents but specifically political rivals for the next presidential election of 2026, and the problem was taken care of with surprised efficiency.
