La Piedad
When this Mexican journalist was framed and thrown in prison, he interviewed the inmates
Journalist Jesús Lemus risked his life to report on Mexico’s drug war. But then he was jailed on trumped-up drug trafficking charges, accused of being the head of various cartels. But Lemus saw opportunity behind bars, and interviewed some of Mexico’s most famous prisoners. Now free, Lemus has published a book filled with the stories he collected from behind bars.
