Marcos Rogério: And what I have to say here is that in my state, although the PT is not governing, we have seen violence grow in recent years in an alarming way.
Marcos Rogério: And this has worried me greatly, because what was already serious – having a level of violence above average in my capital, Porto Velho – now, also in the interior of my State of Rondônia, violence is increasing, organized crime is taking hold.
And what I observe is that, as the State fails to take up its duty...
Marcos Rogério: That is, there are situations in which the State must be present.
Marcos Rogério: It must be present not only with the repressive apparatus, not only with ostensive policing, not only with criminal investigation police, not only with the prison police; that is, you have the police that prevent crime, you have the police that investigate crime, and you have the police that, once a convict is incarcerated, guard the environment so that he remains there, has no connection to the outside and does not control criminal life outside prison.
