Description
Centro Penal de Apanteos, Santa Ana, El Salvador. In the cell block, not the cells themselves, three young men of Hispanic origin stand looking at the cameras. The one in the center is the best lit. He has a shaved head, and is making the sign of a gang with his fingers. He wears a mustache. There is a skeleton tattoo wearing a hood on his chest, and some indecipherable words tattooed above the skeleton. The skeleton wears a cape with a hood, and there are indecipherable images inside the cape. The young men to the left and right of him both have tattoos. The one on his right only a tattoo in large letter on his chest, the one on the left, tattoos on his chest and arms. about 3pm
