Epa Colombia influencer Daneidy Barrera Rojas appears in prison photo

Colombian influencer Daneidy Barrera Rojas, known as Epa Colombia, resurfaced on social media after months of silence when her lawyer Wendy Herrera posted a photo of her taken inside the Escuela de Carabineros where she is serving her sentence. Observers noted a change in her facial appearance, sparking discussion online.

Barrera has been incarcerated since 2022 after the Supreme Court upheld a 63‑month prison term, a fine of 492 minimum wages and a ban on influencing for crimes linked to damage at the Molinos TransMilenio station during the 2019 national strike. Her defense team, led by Herrera, announced that legal actions to secure her release are progressing, mentioning a forthcoming letter to President Abelardo de la Espriella and a new judicial strategy, though no specific timeline was given.
