BRASILIA, Jan 2 (Reuters) - Around 60 people were killed in a prison riot in the Amazon jungle city of Manaus, with decapitated bodies of drug gang members thrown over prison walls, officials said on Monday.

It was the bloodiest violence in more than two decades in Brazil’s overcrowded penitentiary system.

The security chief for Amazonas state, Sergio Fontes, told a news conference the death toll could rise as authorities get a clearer idea of the scale of the rebellion sparked by a fight between rival drug gangs.

Fontes told reporters several decapitated bodies were thrown over the prison wall, and most of those killed came from one gang.

“This was another chapter in the silent and ruthless war of drug trafficking,” he said.

Pedro Florencio, the Amazonas state prison secretary, said the massacre was a “revenge killing” in a feud between criminal gangs in Brazil.

Americas worst neighborhoods would be considered safe suburbs in some Latin american countries. The amount of sociopaths over there is crazy.

I can attest to this, when I first moved to the South i was irrational like a MF. My first year here was spent cooped up.

Decapitating someone is no easy feat either, especially given they probably got small pen knives.

It's just the shell of the person. They're soul is still living in one of two places in the spirit realm.
