Subrogados y hacinamiento carcelario: Respuesta del legislador del año 2014 frente a la situación carcelaria en Colombia

This text analyzed, in depth, the reform
introduced by the 1709 law of 2014 to the
Criminal Code, Penitentiary and for Prison
of Colombia, studying especially the figure of
penal subrogated and the fluctuation of the
requirements demanded for their concession,
as well as the application that the judicial
operators have given, with respect to the transit
of legislation. For this, it has been done a field
work among the Courts of Execution and Security
Measures of Bogotá, as well as in other judicial offices,
obtaining the rulings that rest in their archives and
interviewing the civil servants in charge of adopting
these decisions. This investigation allowed the
construction of some descriptive postulates, as well
as some others questioning, based on the take effect
of this legal norm.
