Description
Cetro Penal de Apanteos, Santa Ana, El Salvador. A young man of Hispanic origin, in close up, with white background, stares into the camera. On his forehead is a tattoo with the letter M and S, and what appear to be the words VTK5 ALLS, plus a pattern of what looks like a gang hang symbol. On his upper lip is an indecipherable word, as a mustache. Around his neck is a tattoo that in indecipherable. On his chest, is large letters, the words "El Salvador". Below that a large pattern of what appear to be bones is visible. 3pm
