Footage of the guard and male prisoner was reportedly shared with prisoners at HMP Five Wells in Northamptonshire

A female prison officer has been suspended after being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. It follows reports in The Sun that a custody officer was detained after a video of her having sex with a male inmate was shared with prisoners at HMP Five Wells in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire.

Robert Brooks died after a savage attack at a New York prison this month that was captured by several officers’ body-worn cameras.

A female prison officer, 19, has been suspended after allegedly being filmed having sex with a 'burly, tattooed' inmate in HMP Five Wells in Wellingborough last week.
