A party at an El Salvador prison was supposed to celebrate the Day of the Virgin of Mercedes. And what a celebration it was when strippers were reportedly allowed into the prison and carried on with a bunch of rowdy prisoners. A video taken in 2013 has recently been leaked to the press, along with documents pertaining to prison officials who allowed the incident to take place.

The video, which has outraged the public shows presumed gang members cheering on a handful of nude women. One government official said no one knows if the women were forced to perform or if they did the strip tease on their own, reports the Daily Mail. The incident which happened sometime in August 2013, at the Izalco prison is being referred to as a porn party. The video was reportedly recorded on a cell phone, but released in February 2016, and even shows a prison guard participating in the action. El Salvador's bureau of prisons is currently conducting an internal investigation of the incident.

El Salvador holds some of Latin America's most dangerous criminals. There are 13,952 gang members behind bars in the country, mostly members of MS-13 according to a report on Fox News Latino. Four members of the Barrio 18 gang were murdered recently at the Izalco prison, where the porn parties took place.
