A former Wandsworth prison officer has been sentenced to 15 months for misconduct after being filmed having sex with an inmate
London: So, here’s the scoop. Linda De Sousa Abreu, a former prison officer, just got sentenced for some pretty wild misconduct. She was caught on video having sex with an inmate at HMP Wandsworth.
This all went down in July when she pleaded guilty to misconduct in public office. The video, which went viral, was filmed by the inmate’s cellmate. Can you believe it? The guy was just chilling and smoking while filming the whole thing!
Linda was sentenced to 15 months in jail at Isleworth Crown Court. It’s a serious deal, and the Crown Prosecution Service didn’t hold back in calling her actions a major breach of trust.
Tetteh Turkson from the CPS made it clear that they won’t tolerate this kind of behavior from prison staff. He said they worked closely with the police to build a strong case against her, and now she’s facing the music for her choices.
