Inmate who had sex with prison guard 'violently attacked' while holding his three-month-old baby
The prisoner who had sex with an on-duty guard last year was reportedly attacked while holding his three-month-old baby.
At the start of the year, former HMP Wandsworth officer Linda De Sousa Abreu, 30, was jailed for 15 months after she was filmed having sex with inmate Linton Weirich, who has reportedly been attacked during a prison visit on 18 December.
Weirich is said to be serving a four-and-a-half-year sentence in HMP Swaleside for an £63,800 luxury goods heist in Kensington, London.

Just before Christmas, the convicted burglar reportedly suffered serious injuries during a violent attack at the Category B prison.
Weirich was said to be holding on to his baby, who suffered a fractured skull and was taken to hospital.
He was allegedly punched in the head and fell on top of the child.
A spokesman for Kent Police said: “It is reported a prisoner was punched by another inmate in an area used for visitors. The victim sustained head injuries and fell onto a three-month-old baby he had been holding.
“The baby suffered a fractured skull but has since been discharged from hospital. The suspect has been identified and an investigation is ongoing.”
A spokesman for the prison service added: “Police are investigating an assault on a prisoner at HMP Swaleside on Dec 18. It would be inappropriate to comment further while they investigate.”
LADbible Group has contacted HMP Swaleside and Kent Police for additional comment.
This comes after ex-prison officer Abreu, of Fulham, southwest London, was jailed for 15 months on 6 January.
Prosecutors said that the mother of four, who has an OnlyFans account, willingly took part in the video with Weirich, filmed in his cell at HMP Wandsworth on 27 June.
She was subsequently charged after a video of the incident was shared on social media.
The charge stated that Abreu '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'.
Sentencing, Judge Martin Edmunds KC said: "It will impact on the reputation of the prison service and, with that, the prospects of recruiting and retaining staff.
"It causes anxiety among those close to vulnerable prisoners who worry more about the environment in which prisoners are held. That recording is still out there and will doubtless circulate indefinitely.
"You are not responsible for the wider problems of prisons, but you have added to them. The level of harm is high, indeed very high."
