In Brazil, this specific prison is known as the “real dungeons.”

 

Because once you get in - you feel like you’re trapped in hell until they let you out. That is - if you can even get out alive.

 

BBC reporters are there to interview one of the most high profile prisoners. Every single prisoner in there has been deemed a dangerous criminal - this one even more so.

 

She walks out. Thin frame. Short blonde hair.

 

She used to be a model in NYC and was reported to have dated Leonardo DiCaprio. What is she doing in here?

 

“Why are you in here?” - they ask her.

 

“They say I can control people minds. Change their brains.” - she responds.

 

“Can you?”

 

“What do you think? Can I? I hope so… when I get out you will see the power that I have and if it is real or not.”

 

“Is that a threat”

 

Did the prisoner just threaten the BBC reporters?

 

This is the case of Kat Torres - the Brazilian Instagram “influencer” with over 1 million followers that has been charged with human trafficking and slavery charges.
