We could notice that, in terms of legal support and ressocializadora intention, Penal Execution Law presents a construction that provides dignified and humane for the serving of sentences conditions, and establishes the goal of rehabilitation of convicts. But these goals become distant and impractical due to the growing overcrowding of the system and the maintenance of prisons while deposit persons.
