Update on the Health of Mexican Anarchist Political Prisoner Jorge “Yorch” Esquivel abolitionmedia.noblogs.org/251…
Update on the Health of Mexican Anarchist Political Prisoner Jorge “Yorch” Esquivel
Translated from the Spanish-language post on the Auditorio Che Facebook page.
Learn more about Mexican anarchist political prisoner Jorge “Yorch” Esquivel here.December 6, 2025, 3:40pm
Dear family, compas, friends, and community:
Thank you very much for all your letters, love, and solidarity with our beloved Yorch. We have read each and every one of your messages and we are very grateful because we know that he hears us and knows that he is not alone.
We want to share with you that our compañero’s health has become more delicate every day. Even with the dignified attention that he is finally receiving and the enormous and loving efforts made by doctors and hospital personnel charged with his treatment, due to the advanced state of deterioration he was in upon arriving at the hospital – where he is now – it has been very complex attending to his urgent condition. After the long period of medical neglect, the effects of the damned prison on all facets of prisoners’ health – and more in this case, where the violence of the State and UNAM orchestrated repression against him – and his prior medical issues which themselves paint a picture of potential complications due to his hospitalization, multiple surgeries, and irreversible damage suffered in 2019 when Yorch survived appendicitis that was not treated in time.
Sadly, our compañero now does not have the possibility of recovering a dignified quality of life and he has a very high probability of remaining in the state he is in now and due to the risks presented by the procedures and treatments indicated by his clinical state in the coming days. During recent weeks, Yorch was wandering from site to site without precise information. We did not receive clear news regarding his condition, treatment, or anything else. The prison authorities and those of the various hospitals where he has been this past month did not inform us of the severity of his condition until he arrived at the current hospital and we learned minutes before they had to intubate him – due to neurological failures that don’t allow for him to breathe unaided – that this was just a small part of the series of complications he has. The situation took us completely by surprise.
With pain in our hearts, we believe that the most loving thing we can do at this time is to take responsibility that the best for our Yorch is that he stops suffering and that his body may finally rest. He needs our accompaniment, solidarity, and support to face this difficult and painful transition. We know that he is faced with a complex decision that, on one hand, he would want to stay here with us and attend to your calls for strength and recovery, but, on the other hand, his body no longer has the possibility of meeting these desires.
With much attention, we ask that you send all your love, care, fire, and wishes so that he may go through this transition accompanied by us and have a dignified death. We want you to have the opportunity to say goodbye in the way that each of you are able. To do so, we call upon you to gather, starting now, from your different geographies and collectivities to place a candle, flowers, smoke, punk and noise songs…all that can transport your wishes from your hearts to his.
We also thank you for continuing to send your letters to yorchlibre@gmail.com. You can write about your history with him, what he means to you, and the way in which you would like to say goodbye. As difficult and painful as this is for every one of us, it is very important for his process. We will continue reading your words during visits, which are unfortunately limited to people authorized by the prison since the beginning of this long journey of hospitalizations and transfers.
We continue fighting for his freedom and dignity, be it in life or in death.
Fire to the prisons, free Yorch now!
PS: We know that many of you have greater concerns due to your direct relationship with Yorch, but we hope you understand that this is the information we have available. We regret that we cannot respond to every message we receive, but time and mental capacity do not allow for that. Without getting into personal issues, we appreciate your respect for our path and for being part of this struggle. Thank you also for caring about us and looking out for our well-being.
