Scandalous prison video. "We made history"
The "Daily Mail" shared a short video clip. A television and clothes arranged on a bunk bed can be seen in the cell. The video shows the prison guard having sex with an inmate while his cellmate records it with a phone. "Guys we've made history, this is what I'm telling you," he says to the camera.
The guard's radio was likely intentionally left on, and shortly after, someone tried to enter the cell. The person filming told his friend to continue while he went to the door. "This is how we roll in Wandsworth," he told the camera.
Vanessa Frake, a former head of security, called the video shocking. "This woman dishonours not only herself but also the uniform and the Prison Service," she stated.
Staff corruption is not tolerated and the former prison officer allegedly featured in this video has been reported to the police. It would be inappropriate to comment further while they investigate - a Prison Service spokesman told the "Daily Mail".
