Colombian drug lord escapes maximum-security prison after donning security guard’s uniform March 23, 2022 - Firstpost
Juan Castro alias 'Matamba,' has been on the run since he escaped the maximum-security prison in the early hours of Friday morning
A Colombian drug lord awaiting extradition to the United States managed to escape a maximum-security prison in Bogota, Colombia, on 18 March, while wearing a prison guard’s uniform. The daring escape was captured on the jail's CCTV cameras.
Juan Castro alias "Matamba," has been on the run since he escaped the maximum-security prison in the early hours of Friday morning. The drug lord had been incarcerated in the capital's La Picota jail since May last year. Castro is reportedly the second-in-command of the Gulf Clan drug cartel, which is considered to be the largest drug-trafficking group in Colombia.
In the CCTV footage of his escape, which was recently released by Colombia's prison service, Castro can be seen casually walking out of a door that was left open. He walked through seven doors without any problems and escaped the maximum-security prison with ease. In the CCTV footage, the Colombian drug lord can be seen wearing a hooded jacket to cover his face.
Local newspaper El Tiempo reported that Castro returned to his cell around 12.30 am and then put on a security guard's uniform and escaped prison by passing through several doors. According to the report, Matamba may have paid a $5 million bribe to escape from the maximum-security prison.
Prison authorities have arrested Milton Jimenez, the National Penitentiary and Prison Institute Inspector, for helping Castro escape the prison. Jimenez reportedly led the drug lord past as many as five checkpoints, as per reports. Authorities have also suspended the prison director and 55 other guards for their involvement in the escape. Currently, police officials are doing their best to nab the Colombian drug lord.
This is not the first time that Matamba has escaped prison The notorious drug lord has been arrested 12 times till date and had already escaped jail twice. In 2018, he faked his own death while on medical leave from prison.

"A Colombian drug lord awaiting extradition to the United States managed to escape a maximum-security prison in Bogota, Colombia,". No shit, really? How shocking. El Chapo and his doc was quite amazing. He is here now and he cannot build a giant fucking underground tunnel and bribing guards.
God what people do for money in this world is so inane. I get it if you are starving yet the greed that rules the majority of the world is quite amazing as it is so temporary and fleeting. A lot like heroin/fent and cocaine highs. And yes I have experienced it.
I complained to my brother that cocaine is boring.

I feel the same way.....I am just into shrooms and weed now. LSD isn't even that great, just always feels way to artificial. And everything else from meth to cocaine to pills is just complete garbage.

Well I don't like cocaine but if I'm healthy enough, I can enjoy smoking meth or heroin a lot. Then use psychedelics and weed to help alleviate the bad part of the comedown and stop any addiction that could be forming/starting.
I don't really think that any bad stuff from drug use is permanent unless it was very very severe for a long time, but even then I think that people can return almost to normal by eating enough of a wide variety of healthy food and exercising, taking psychedelics, and supplements.
I am a firm believer that being unhealthy + using drugs causes mental illness, and that it does it in such a quick and rapid rate that it's almost instantaneous and exposes the user to more agony and suffering than they were ever meant to feel. Being healthy is incredibly important if going to use drugs.
-------------------- No one knows who I am. Therefore, I am not anyone.

yea agreed, if the masses could get their hand on shrooms then their wouldnt be any addiction in the country but that would also cause the medical industry to collapse. I think that may be one of the major reasons as to why they do not want shrooms to be publicly available because it would solve a lot of problems with the human body whether physical or mental (I can attest to the healing benefits of both from eating shrooms)...meaning the powers that be would lose a lot of money and control aka POWER
