“…To build context for the examination of the factors controlling the spread of COVID-19 in the Brazilian penitentiary system, we described the main policies and laws that came into force over the last 30 years. Restrictions on pre-trial detention and progression of prison regime (de Azevedo, 2017; Campos, 2014;Macaulay, 2002), along with the war on drugs (Campos & Alvarez, 2017;Grillo et al, 2011) contributed to the skyrocketing number of inmates (de Azevedo, 2017;Sinhoretto, 2018).…”

“…8 Law #11,343 came into force in 2006 strengthening the war on drugs boosting the rate of incarceration (Cifali & de Azevedo, 2017). The legislation exempted drug users from prison terms, granting them medical treatment and alternative penalties (Campos & Alvarez, 2017), while tightening the punishments for drug dealers, including a minimum of five years and a maximum of 15 years of imprisonment (Campos, 2014). Nonetheless, Law #11,343 failed to specify the amount of drugs necessary to classify subjects as drug dealers or drug users, leaving the differentiation up to state officials (Grillo et al, 2011).…”

“…Desde 2006, início da vigência da nova lei de drogas, as internações de adolescentes relacionadas às drogas passaram de 6,7% para 12,6%, entre 2006 e 2007, e nos anos posteriores se elevaram até chegar a 49,4%. Uma das hipóteses é a entrada em vigor da lei 11.343\2006 7 , a chamada "Nova Lei de Drogas", em um contexto internacional de "redução de danos", adotando uma abordagem médico-criminal, na qual o usuário não é privado de liberdade, mas sim encaminhado para o sistema de saúde, enquanto que o traficante sofre penalidade mais rígida 8 .…”

“…These findings suggest that hyper-detention for drug-related crimes is not an isolated phenomenon, but rather associated with the introduction of the so-called "New Drug Law" (Law 11.343) 7 , leading to a sharp increase in youth detention, particularly those from more vulnerable social groups. Introduced in 2006 within a context of "harm reduction" at international lev-el, the law adopts a medical-criminal approach where users, rather than being deprived of their liberty, are referred to the health system, while traffickers are imposed stricter penalties 8 . These findings suggest that the "New Drug Law" has failed, perpetuating Brazil's highly punitive anti-drugs laws by neglecting to establish a clear distinction between user and trafficker.…”
