A prisoner who was filmed having sex with a guard has been attacked by a fellow inmate, with a three-month-old baby he was holding injured during the assault.
X-rated footage of Linton Weirich and officer Linda De Sousa Abreu in his cell at London's HMP Wandsworth was widely shared last year, with De Sousa Abreu now behind bars for misconduct in a public office.
Weirich, 36, was moved to Swaleside Prison, on Sheppey, and last month was attacked while in the visitors area of the the Category B prison in Eastchurch.
A police spokesperson told KentOnline: "Kent Police is investigating an allegation of assault at HMP Swaleside, which happened on December 18.
"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."
Police add a suspect has since been identified and an investigation is ongoing. No arrests have yet been made.
After the clip of De Sousa Abreu, 31, and Weirich circulated last year, the prison officer was arrested at Heathrow Airport while attempting to board a flight to Madrid with her father.
She later pleaded guilty to misconduct in public office and was sentenced to 15 months’ imprisonment at Isleworth Crown Court last Monday (January 6).
