A prison officer has been sentenced to 15 months after having sex with an inmate at a London jail. Linda De Sousa Abreu, 30, of Fulham, south-west London, was charged after a video of the activity was shared on social media.
A police investigation was launched after officers were made aware of a video filmed inside HMP Wandsworth. In the footage, an inmate off-camera can be heard saying: “This is how we live at Wandsworth, bruv.”. De Sousa Abreu appeared at Isleworth crown court on Monday, where she was sentenced to 15 months in prison. Judge Edmunds said: “On 25 June 2024 you were on duty in uniform when you went to a cell with the prisoner. You took off your prison-issue radio and put it to one side. Your set of keys was at risk of being taken.
“A second prisoner was present and had a camera, doubtless on a phone which must have been an unauthorised phone. He also appears to have been smoking cannabis. Rather than challenge his possession of a phone or cannabis, you consented to him recording what was happening.
“The recording lasts some four and a half minutes, during which you gave the prisoner oral sex, then vaginal intercourse in a number of positions, before concluding by giving more oral sex. “You participated with evident enthusiasm. The second prisoner recorded events and provided a commentary by way of encouragement, including saying: ‘Guys we made history,’ ‘This is how we live at Wandsworth, bruv’ and ‘You know you are a gangsta.’”.
