Overview
- The 26-year-old officer admitted at Leeds Crown Court to misconduct in public office and possession of cannabis, with her sentencing scheduled for November.
- Prosecutors say she exchanged “very explicit” letters and sexual communications with an organised crime inmate, including possible phone sex, and sent over 900 texts to his mother.
- Her behaviour at HMP Wealstun triggered 102 anti-corruption intelligence reports in five months, yet prison management kept her on duty after providing “educational training.”
- Investigators linked her to gang associates when her number was found on a member’s phone and uncovered a £1,000 cash discrepancy with no supporting bank withdrawal.
- Defence statements reveal she has undergone mental health assessments, including for post-traumatic stress, which may be considered during her sentencing hearing.
