John Esteban Serna

PRISONNER ABROAD

In April 2022, I crossed a border seeking a future for my family, but ended up trapped in the jaws of relentless machinery. Without evidence and without speaking the language, I was presented to Justice as a major international trafficker.
This book is not just a story; It is the testimony of how a guilty person is created. My capture was not the result of an investigation, but rather the hunger for “false positives” of a police force in need of medals and media spectacle.
I have protected identities to safeguard my safety, but the facts narrated here are a stark and documented truth. After surviving 41 months in a maximum security prison under a sentence based on manipulated reports, today I break my silence.
This work, internationally recognized by the film industry, is my legacy of resilience and a technical proposal to reform the gaps in justice in the world.
