A look inside the La Modelo prison in Bogota, Colombia. Called a
"model" prison by Colombia officials the prison in reality is
controlled more by the prisoners than the guards. With 5000
prisoners for 2400 spots, and not more than 150 security guards
assigned to the prison. The prison is awash in violence, and drugs.
Last year, 162 prisoners were killed there. The prison is
controlled by three criminal groups: members of the guerrilla
movement, paramilitary forces, and cocaine traffickers. They have
broken the prison up into three different territories and each
group has it's own security forces, defending it's own
territory.
