A female guard at HMP Wandsworth was caught on video in intimate acts with an inmate, sparking an investigation. The incident highlights security concerns and follows a recent report on the prison's need for urgent improvements. Netizen's reactions range from shock to humor.
A shocking incident at HMP Wandsworth, Britain's second-largest prison, has sparked outrage and an official investigation. A female prison officer was filmed engaging in intimate acts with an inmate inside a cell, raising serious questions about security and conduct within the facility.
The video, over four minutes long, was reportedly recorded by another prisoner using an illegal phone. It shows the guard, believed to be in her 20s, performing intimate acts with an inmate while her official radio crackles in the background. The footage has since circulated among prisoners.
This scandal comes on the heels of a recent report by HM Inspector of Prisons highlighting "urgent improvements" needed at Wandsworth due to increased violence and "systemic and cultural failures" stemming from poor leadership. The prison's governor resigned during the inspection.
The guard in question has reportedly left her position since the video emerged. The incident is now under police investigation, with authorities working to determine how such a severe breach of protocol could occur
