Sumario:The purpose of this article is to analyze the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court that has referred to the State of Unconstitutional Things (ECI) generated by prison overcrowding, making special mention of the situation of police stations, especially what happens in the La CandelariaPolice Station in the Municipality of Medellín. This describes the jurisprudence that has addressed this problem and specifically what the Constitutional Court has called ECI. Then a description of this problem is made in said police station with a view to establishing the possible causes of the phenomenon; finally, the alleged violation of the fundamental rights of persons deprived of liberty in police stations is analyzed from the jurisprudence emanating from the Constitutional Court. A qualitative studyseeks to establish that factors such as the application of the declining equilibrium rule and the excessive use of pretrial detention by judges and 4prosecutors, among many others, are what contribute to overcrowding at the Station Candelaria Police of the city of Medellín has been presenting an exponential increase in recent years.
