The hell of Rafael Uribe Noguera in La Tramacua prison

Sentenced to 58 years, the murderer of Yuliana Sambony lives under 43 degrees, drowned by the foul smell of a garbage can and threatened with death 24 hours a day

What cost Rafael Uribe Noguera the most in his early days at La Tramacúa was not his conscience but suffocation. Going from cold to hot will always be traumatic for a Bogota native. But the Tramacúa was another level of oppression. The sweat is thick and hangs like a curtain in the air that is heavy, suffocating like conviction. The patio where Rafael Uribe Noguera is located is the most guarded in the country. Nothing moves without the order of the guards. Furthermore, Rafael Uribe Noguera does not even take advantage of his hours of sunshine. He does not play soccer like the other prisoners. In this jail, whose entrance sign reads “Welcome to Hell,” rapists cannot walk alone without being caught by a stab.

Staying in the cell is a real torture due to the conditions of the place. Not only does the wind not circulate as in the entire concrete structure and, in the scorching noon days of Valledupar, the temperature long exceeds 43 degrees, but the nauseating smell of the garbage dump that is right at the back of the building seeps through the cracks. the Tramacúa. Then there is water, the issue of water and the absence of it. Being in that corridor is the closest to being in the galleys of a medieval ship in the middle of the sea. It’s hellish.

And to think that between 2018 and 2019 Uribe Noguera could have spent his best time locked up. At that time he shared a television with Oscar Alejandro Sandoval Arguello, alias Candado, the former head of the Urabeños who practically controlled the jail and was his cell neighbor. He also had Popeye, who with his diabolical charisma won the favors of the nearly 5,600 inmates. So even Uribe Noguera received clients who sent him to make models for which he received symbolic sums that helped him bear the costs of the confinement. There, in that place, Garavito was also protected, the monster who killed and raped more than a hundred children and made his living by weaving backpacks.

Today Rafael Uribe Noguera no longer has those friends. Candado was transferred and is being the target of a scandal in Santa Marta, Popeye died in March of pancreatic cancer and Garavito was transferred to a medical care center where it will be difficult for him to recover. It has been a slow death of excruciating pain.

Four years after having murdered and raped Yuliana Samboní, subjecting a 7-year-old girl to unspeakable torture, such as deep bites to the neck, Uribe Noguera knows that hell is barely consuming him, that what he has left is all eternity of his sentence to 58 years to repent of the atrocity he committed on December 4, 2016 at his Equus apartment in Chapinero. The pain is just beginning. Another of his convictions is not being able to see his mother, Maria Isabel Noguera Vidales, who has given up on seeing him. One of his last watsapp sent to his sister said a lapidary phrase “I want to die”
