Darío Estrada

Darío Estrada is a Venezuelan youth diagnosed with autism and Asperger's syndrome, who has been unjustly sentenced to 30 years in prison by the authoritarian government of Venezuela. His case highlights the severe human rights violations occurring in the country, where neurodivergent individuals face persecution and are treated as threats simply for being different. With over 1,610 days of arbitrary detention without access to specialized care or due process, Darío's situation exemplifies the moral abyss reached by a regime that punishes vulnerability instead of protecting it.
