Torture Cells of Les Cayes

Les Cayes, Haiti, 1994 Haitian prisoners in Les Cayes prison in Southern Haiti. Twenty mistreated, malnurished, sick and tortured prisoners share a 4 by 4 meter cell. Discovered by a platoon of U.S. special forces, the prisoners were released and hospitalized, and the prison guards locked up in the cells instead. Several prisoners had their skin rotten away and were unable to walk. One of the prisoners later died of his injuries.
