Overcrowding,gang presence,lack of adequate staff,and corruption are all major contributing factors. These institutions frequently enough become breeding grounds for criminal activity, with limited oversight and control. Rivalries between gangs exacerbate tensions, and the struggle for power and resources often spills over into violence.
