Recently the government has cracked down on gangs and arrested 63,000 people under state of emergency....A mega-prison in El Salvador has opened its doors for its first 2,000 inmates of suspected gang members - who upon their arrival found out there are not enough beds for everyone and there are no mattresses at all.
The facility is designed to house 40,000 suspected gangsters and the security minister for the Central American country warned inmates they 'will never walk out of here'.
The move to the high-tech prison follows President Nayib Bukele's 'war' on crime.
Bukele tweeted that 'at dawn, in a single operation, we transferred the first 2,000 members to the Center for the Confinement of Terrorism (CECOT)' - which he claims is the largest mega-prison in the Americas.
Bukele added: 'This will be their new house, where they will live for decades, all mixed, unable to do any further harm to the population.'

If they’re never planning on letting them out, hanging is way cheaper.

There are no rehibilitation facilites in this prison nor is it intened for that....it's simply locking them up....no mattresses, in jail all day. El Salvador is showing where you'll end up if you join a gang...

Are they from different gangs? Seems like there could be some thinning of the prisoners by gang wars.
