El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT) houses some of the world’s most dangerous gang members, and journalist Nick Shirley was able to get a firsthand look inside the famous facility that helped fix the nation’s crime crisis.
President Nayib Bukele started cracking down on Salvadorian gangs in 2022 and has since cleaned the country so much it now boasts one of the lowest crime rates in the world.

During his tour, Shirley experienced the strict security measures for visitors to the prison and was able to briefly ask a few questions to the violent criminals.
“When an inmate walks through these doors, he never leaves,” he told the camera.
The extremely hardcore jail framework is largely credited with helping El Salvador fix its crime problem and many people across the world are looking to the country as an example of how they could also cleanse their nations of criminal gangs.
