In this article, I present torture as the main finding through qualitative research between January 2019 and August 2022 on the process of incarceration of women in Jalisco, Mexico. I find that the development of this practice, of torture, takes place in public and private spaces, as well as the expansion of its characteristic features such as violence and power, in subjects that are around detained women, as is the case of their children. As a first moment, I raise the difficulties in defining torture, as well as the use of this method specifically on women, and then make a first analytical approach to the physical and psychological damage inflicted on the victims as women and mothers.
