Guayaquil, Oct 1 (EFE).- The disturbing images circulating on social media about the massacre in the Guayaquil jail Tuesday left horrifying human testimonies such as that of Marlene Palma, a mother of an inmate who Friday was waiting at a municipal morgue for the restitution of her son's head."I already got in. What happens was that they could not find the head (of my son) to give me the body, because they beheaded him and burned the head. So I'm waiting for the body. I already got in and they already helped me," a woman from the south of Guayaquil and a mother of the deceased inmate told EFE. Ecuador's armed forces took charge of the Guayaquil prison on Thursday on the orders of President Guillermo Lasso, who declared a 60-day state of emergency in the penal system.

152 inmates managed to escape from the Professor Noe Azevedo prison in Bauru, Brazil on Tuesday, after setting fire to three pavilions of the compound. Police recaptured around 90 of the jail-breakers while the rest remain at large. Inmates set fire to mattresses in an organized effort of arson, which helped them distract prison staff and escape. Military police advised local residents to stay indoors and vehicle drivers to steer clear of the Bauru-Marilia highway and United Nations Avenue, to avoid encounters with escapees.
