As an ex-prison officer, here’s what I think about the Wandsworth jail sex video scandal

A video circulating on social media allegedly shows a female prison officer having sex with an inmate at HMP Wandsworth.A video circulating on social media allegedly shows a female prison officer having sex with an inmate at HMP Wandsworth.The film of an officer allegedly having sex with an inmate in a cell has gone viral.

There was a time, not so long ago, when the alleged actions of that prison officer would have been almost impossible. Certainly, when I joined the service in 2012, as a 22-year-old prison officer at a high-security men’s jail, that kind of thing was unheard of. Having sex with a prisoner? In a cell? During the association period? I don’t think it could have happened.

The Ministry of Justice has launched a significant recruitment drive to attract people to the service. But the newly recruited staff often don’t have the benefit of learning from experienced officers with years or even decades in the job, as I did.
