A married HMP Wandsworth officer who romped with an inmate on camera has accused prisoners of blackmailing her into filming the x-rated clip.
HOW SHE WAS BLACKMAILED
Linda De Sousa Abreu, 30, admitted having s*x with serial burglar Linton Weirich in his cell at the scandal-hit jail – but says she only agreed to take part after lags threatened to expose her career as an amateur porn star.
De Sousa Abreu, who claims she has since ‘found faith in God’, pleaded guilty to one count of misconduct in a public office at a hearing at Isleworth Crown Court on Monday.
Close friend Hayley, who only wanted to give her first name, said that the circumstances surrounding the incident will become public when De Sousa returns to court for sentencing in November.
She said: ‘There’s a lot more to this story than people think. Some of the prisoners had got hold of Linda’s personal details.
‘They knew her address, her husband’s name and that she had an OnlyFans account. She was put under a lot of pressure and there was a lot of coercion involved.’

Hayley continued: ‘Linda was going through a very hard time at work because of all this. And she was also having problems in her marriage.
‘She’s absolutely devastated by what happened and is full of remorse. It’s absolutely devastated her and she’s trying to rebuild her life.’
De Sousa Abreu lives on a sprawling council estate in Fulham near where Weirich grew up.
Hayley added: ‘It wasn’t hard for the other prisoners to get Linda’s details and find out things about her personal life.’
