Veronica Gabriela Albarracin (31), a pregnant Argentinian inmate being held at Alcala de Guadaira prison while awaiting trial on drugs charges. Children are allowed to live with their mothers in Spanish prisons up to the age of three, but Veronica has still to decide whether to raise her baby behind bars. "I am struggling to choose between two kinds of barbarity - a child growing up in prison or growing up without its mother."
