Linda De Sousa Abreu’s scandalous journey from prison officer to viral sensation
London: A married prison officer, Linda De Sousa Abreu, recently made headlines after being filmed in a compromising situation with an inmate. She was caught on camera having sex with a male prisoner at HMP Wandsworth, and the video quickly went viral.
After pleading guilty to misconduct, she was sentenced to 15 months in jail. The footage showed her in uniform, engaging in sexual acts while another inmate filmed the whole thing. It was a shocking breach of trust that led to a police investigation.
Linda was granted conditional bail after her arrest and was suspended from her job. The video showed her colleagues on the radio, and at one point, the filming inmate joked about their antics, saying, “This is how we roll in Wandsworth.”
Prosecutors were clear about the seriousness of her actions, stating that there’s no excuse for a prison officer to behave in such a way. Linda, who holds a Portuguese passport, thought she could escape the consequences, but that was not the case.
Interestingly, it was revealed that she had previously appeared on a Channel 4 show about swinging couples. On the show, she expressed her views on monogamy and how opening up her relationship with her MMA fighter husband had strengthened their bond.
Her sister even warned her not to mix her personal life with her job, but it seems the advice went unheeded. A friend later claimed that Linda was being blackmailed by inmates who discovered her OnlyFans account and personal details.
Despite the serious nature of her situation, Linda was seen joking about her ankle tag at a club, which drew criticism from many. People were outraged that she seemed to take her punishment lightly, treating it as a joke rather than a serious consequence of her actions.
Her friend defended her, saying Linda was remorseful and not the “sex monster” people were making her out to be. It’s a complicated story, and while she made a huge mistake, it’s clear there’s more to it than just a scandalous video.
