Wandsworth prison guard Linda De Sousa arrives at court accused of sex with lag in seedy jail video
A PRISON guard accused of having sex with an inmate in an X-rated video recorded inside a jail cell has arrived at court.
Linda De Sousa Abreu, 30, has arrived at Isleworth Crown Court for a plea hearing charged with misconduct in public office.
It comes after the Metropolitan Police launched a probe into footage allegedly filmed inside HMP Wandsworth last month.
The video showed a prison officer having sex with an inmate as a second lag recorded it with a phone.
De Sousa Abreu was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office at Heathrow Airport the same day.
She had notified the prison of her travel plans, it was said.

The married woman is originally from Brazil and shares an OnlyFans account with her husband.
Following a hearing at Uxbridge Magistrates' Court on July 1, De Sousa Abreu was released on conditional bail to appear at Isleworth Crown Court today.
The charge states that, between June 26 and 28, the prison officer "wilfully and without reasonable excuse or justification misconducted yourself in a way which amounted to an abuse of the public's trust in the office holder by engaging in a sexual act with a Prisoner in a prison cell".
The prisoner in the video has since been revealed to be burglar Linton Weirich - who is serving four years and nine months.
Weirich is not under police investigation following the tryst.
He is also understood to have a girlfriend on the outside who is heavily pregnant.
