Lletres: Sepultura. Chaos A.D.. Manifest.

{Friday, October 2nd, 1992}

{Chaos has descended in Carandiru
The biggest penitentiary complex in South America
Over a hundred inmates dead and hundreds injured on the massacre
The police arrived with helicopters and over two hundred armed forces}

{They took the jail block called Pavilhao Nove
And opened fire on the inmates
In a holocaust method of annihilation
The government of the city of Sao Paulo
Cannot control the brutality of the police}

Holocaust, body piles
Confrontation, mutilation

Discipline, ignorance
Conflagration, torture

{Over eighty percent of the inmates were not sentenced yet
The bodies were filled with bullets and bites from the police dogs
The police try to hide the massacre
Saying there were only eight deaths}

{The violence of Brazilian cops is very well known outside of Brazil
This kind of extermination is a method that
They use to get rid of the overpopulation in the jails
The violence of the cops left the whole pavilion
Destroyed after the rebellion}
