Prison Tattoos

One of the most feared prison gangs in the country is the Mexican Mafia, which acts, inside and outside of Texas and California prisons, as a major player in narcotics smuggling. While often divided between rural and urban factions, in Texas, Mexican Mafia members tattoo themselves with an intricate tattoo of an eagle and a snake. | Location: Eastham Prison, Madison County, Texas, United States.
