Prison death investigation in Salta, Argentina

Overview

Authorities in Salta, Argentina, are investigating the death of José ‘Jota’ Figueroa at the Villa Las Rosas prison. Figueroa had been serving a life sentence for the femicide of Mercedes Kvedaras.

Reports from prison sources and the Provincial Committee for the Prevention of Torture suggest Figueroa’s behavior changed significantly following his sentencing. While he previously engaged in physical activity, work, and cultural activities, witnesses observed him becoming “increasingly withdrawn, quiet, and despondent” in the three weeks preceding his death. Investigators are reviewing internal records, daily logs, and a final meeting between Figueroa and his lawyer to reconstruct his final days.
