A voluntary locked life


Portrait of Ben Gunn by a fellow prisoner.


A 14 years old, John Gunn, has a fight with a friend and kill him. He is condened to 10 years in a special prison made for youngs. Thirty years later, he is still in prison. Why?


John Gunn is the general secretary of the Association of prisoners, and he is fighting inside the prisoners with non-violent actions, against the abuse of power that the system make against them. He says that a 14 years old kid can not understand what means to kill someone. So, if that kid became an adult in prison, what kind of person leaves the jail and get into the society?
