Finally, the you condemn young rugby players that ended the life of Fernando Baez Sosaas young as they are, have reached a form of punishment that is socially accepted and typified in the Penal Code.
The new controversy that is inaugurated in relation to the case, in these hours, revolves around two issues: on the one hand, if public opinion had an influence on the sentence of the Court and on the other, if the sentencing to life imprisonment distorts the relationship that regulates the gradation of sentences with the perception of fairness.
Or, put another way, if only highly punitive responses satisfy social demands on the state’s ability to “do justice”.
What does the law say and when might the five rugby players sentenced to life be released from prison?
The thread of the question moves later, on the effect of negative resocialization of prisons.
Reason why, now, the controversy warns regarding the radical destiny that intercepts the life of each one of the condemned young people.
The foreseeable continuity of this theming will last for no more than seven days, following which, the young rugby players will be transferred to the destination prison, the critics called to issue an opinion will return to their books, the media will attend to some other tragedy resulting from social violence, regarding which, even in this painful case, there was no room for analysis.
The fragility of the perspective of the Báez Sosa case
If there is something indisputable and integrated into everyday life, it is the share of risk and uncertainty that we have naturalized to go out.
Returning home, without having been the object of some dehumanizing situation, has become an exceptional situation.
Such that, the mistreatment or mistreatment, is not only forging the social context as crystallization of the forms of social relationship, but also conditioning our bodies and our subjectivity in relation to the perception of social violence and the internalization of microphysics of your exercise.
Condemned: the role of each of the eight murderers in the crime of Fernando Báez Sosa
In this way, the risk of being killed, of having been insulted, of being assaulted, injured, outraged, cheated out of change, a purchase, a ticket, a service bill, dismissed without reason and without compensation, is a possibility and It’s there, on the way.
Thus, available and adapted to these forms, the minimum degree of violence that should alert us to social dysfunctions performs everyday life. With this, the level of tolerance and conditioning for subjective and bodily bearability is raised in an environment in which, in addition, the institutional-regulatory aspect lacks anchorage as a subjection mechanism.
As a result of this and unfortunately for our frivolity, the coin falls on our ungrateful side. In this worldliness, where vulnerability and survival is individual responsibility and the life-death relationship a matter of toll, force or luck, the “Báez Sosa case”, rather than an excess, a monstrosity, a tragedy or an anomaly that is locked up and ends with jail, until they rot, is a warning.
This is how we are doing it.
