  • Jesús López, 17. Gangster. "I was sentenced to four and a half years prison for extortion. I've been inside for seven months and 17 days. I'll get out when I'm 22.When I was nine years old I used to go to a church called the Ministry of God's Beloved. But I had to work at that age, to survive economically. But it was hard at home, there were many problems, and I decided to leave home. My aunts would fight over the food, and well, they weren't my parents, and I didn't want to obey them, so I left, and I joined the gang. At ten years old I was taking drugs. I began murdering at age 12. I would kill kids of my own age, to keep in with the gang. In the gang that's something that's normal. When I was 14 I began stealing cars, carrying weapons, but by 16 I got into extortion, I would distribute people across neighbourhoods in Tegucigalpa to carry out the extortions. One of my children died, and my life went further out of control, I did more and more in the gang. I am here in this centre, and I'm trying to get some of the shit out of my head. I want to study, and maybe become a soldier. Before, you could leave the gang if you joined an evangelical church, but the gang is evolving, and now you can't leave unless you are dead. I'm alive, I'm still breathing, and I'm asking God for another chance."
