El expresidente del Sevilla José María del Nido: “Me ofrezco a Marlaska para mejorar las cárceles”

Sostiene que su visión como abogado y su experiencia de tres años en prisión ayudarían a modernizar un sistema penitenciario que considera anticuado

Former Sevilla President José María del Nido has offered his services to the Spanish Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, to help improve prisons. During his three-year prison sentence from March 2014 to April 2017, Del Nido served time in various sections of the facility, including the notorious "La Jungla" zone, where three large inmates greeted him upon his arrival.

Beyond the physical experience of prison, Del Nido claims he underwent a mental trauma when he learned of his impending release. He credits his rehabilitation to sports, the structured routine in the "respeto" module, and his legal profession. Now, Del Nido suggests that prison sentences should include a resocialization component or restitution to ensure offenders become better members of society.

He even proposes collaborating with the Minister of the Interior to work in penitentiaries, either voluntarily or at the government's expense, to promote the resocialization of inmates.
