This structure was commanded by Álvaro Enrique Montilla Briceño (El Loro) and César González (El Ñao), negative leaders who operated from that boarding school even though they had already served their sentence.
With the Trujillo Judicial Confinement Center there are now six prisons taken over by the Government since last September 20, according to reports from Minister Ceballos.
Of the 87 national prisons, seven were not under the policies of the Ministry for the Penitentiary Service. But of that group of seven, only the San Felipe Judicial Confinement Center (Yaracuy), also known as La Cuarta, remains to be addressed.
