José Luis Gutiérrez Román is the director general of Asistencia Legal por los Derechos Humanos (Asilegal), an organization dedicated to advocating for human rights and providing legal assistance to vulnerable populations in Mexico. He has been vocal about the need for reform in the Mexican prison system, particularly emphasizing the issues surrounding preventive detention and the overpopulation of prisons.

His insights stress the importance of addressing both the incoming and outgoing prison populations to develop effective policies aimed at reducing overcrowding and ensuring justice.
