Visita del Establecimiento de reclusión

Abstract

The image contains news about the visit to the prison establishment in Guaduas, dated November 9, 1857, where the Mayor carried out a monthly inspection. During the visit, it was observed that the inmates were receiving good quality food in adequate quantities. The director of the facility presented accurate records of the inmates and their respective sentences, which were verified and endorsed. The inmates expressed that their main concern was the lack of blankets and salt in meals, an issue that had already been reported to the governor the previous year without an effective resolution. In the women's department, the change in leadership in the 1st role stood out. Foreman, now performed by an exemplary inmate named Narcisa Forero, proposed for the position once she completes her reduced sentence soon. News published in Gaceta de Cundinamarca. December 19, 1857.
