One of the most dreaded things in this world has to serve time in jail. This may be due to a wide range of crimes committed by the individual and depending on the severity of the crime; a sentence can extend for a period ranging from several months to a full life in jail. The trend of American citizens being held in Mexican prisons is rising and in connection to this, below is information concerning novels about Americans in Mexican prisons.

One of the bestselling books of all times about life in prison is written by a marine soldier on his experience in a Mexican jail. He writes that he was arrested due to illegal ownership of a short-gun but according to him, this was just but a mistake. He was very disadvantaged to have to serve up to four months there while being chained like a dog to a bed and being treated unfairly.

In other publications, the American inmates have described their stay in those prisons as horrific, a situation which they cannot fully describe. They state that food services are very rare especially if one is considered to be from the state in question. The other inmates also gang up and physically beat them up until they can hardly move and no external help can be administered in this case too.

Americans here experience a lot of sexual violations; they are often raped by their fellow inmates and sometimes soldiers and they are very helpless as they cannot defend themselves from the crazy crowds. This affects them at great depths in such a way that recovering from this becomes another big issue. The aftermath of this is the foreigners being killed and their bodies being dumped.

Most of the persons who have not got to have a taste of life behind the prison walls in this state always claim that escaping might be a good option, it is, but the possibility is very small. One can hardly escape the heavily guarded prisons but for the lucky ones who get to have a chance, they live to tell about the time they served. However most of the individuals who try this are caught and shot dead on the spot.

Many authors take time to describe the full structure of the prisons in their books. According to personal experiences of some, they claim the rooms to be windowless and made of concrete. In most cases, necessities such as blankets beds or mattresses are not provided. The security guards just escort the inmates to these dorms and tell them to feel comfortable in their new home. This is among the most inhumane treatments ever.

According to the ex-American inmates, one of the factors which led to the high rate of violence inside these Mexican institutions is the inmates unlimited access to all types of weapons and money. In this way, they are able to do whatever they want and just by tipping the soldiers, they can get away with almost anything.

To sum up the above there has been a high rate of Americans being tortured in various prisons in Mexico. There are many soldiers who have lost their lives due to this. They should be saved by their governments who should take sure that no one of their citizens in contained in a foreign prison.
