Delitos cometidos en instituciones estatales y sus consecuencias

Explicación Simple

Si alguien está en prisión y comete un delito, recibirá el mismo castigo que si lo hiciera fuera de la cárcel. Eso significa que no se le perdona solo porque esté encerrado.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que Juan está en prisión por robo. Durante su tiempo allí, decide pelear con otro preso y causa daños. Según la ley, Juan enfrentará el mismo castigo que si hubiera hecho eso en la calle, no importa que esté en prisión.

Las mismas que para cualquier delito, sin excepciones por estar en prisión.
