Smitten prison guard, 26, had frequent phone sex with jailbird

Article content

Rookie prison guard Megann Gibson was in love with love.

The bodacious Brit had frequent phone sex with an inmate and then bombarded his mother with more than 900 messages to keep their illicit affair rolling.

Gibson was working at HM Prison Wealstun in West Yorkshire when she became smitten with the jailbird. She began allowing the convict into forbidden areas of the medium-security prison.

The prison has about 900 inmates and offers a menu of rehabilitation courses.

When he was transferred, the correctional officer visited him at his new accommodations. And when the affair appeared to be coming off the rails, Gibson bombarded the crook’s mother with a tidal wave of messages to maintain the connection.

Now, Gibson herself is facing prison after she pleaded guilty to misconduct in public office. She also copped to possession of cannabis. The former guard is scheduled to be sentenced in August.

“You may well be serving a prison sentence,” she was warned by the judge.

According to the charge, Gibson engaged in an “inappropriate relationship” with the convict and that included having “sexual communications via telephone.”

The British corrections system appears rife with lovestruck female guards. Gibson is just the latest to fall afoul of the rules. During the past three years, 29 female guards have been fired for having sex with convicts.

In May, guard Morgan Farr Varney, 24, was imprisoned after she was nabbed sneaking into a cupboard with an inmate she had fallen in love with. Varney was caught when her antics showed up on CCTV footage. She later admitted she had “f***** up her life.” Varney was jailed for 10 months.

An investigation unearthed a trove of love letters between the pair, including in the inmate’s cell at the category C jail and in Farr Varney’s bedroom. CCTV footage also showed the pair entering a cupboard.

Single mom Katie Evans, 26, was jailed for a jailhouse tryst with convicted robber Daniel Brownley while working at HMP Doncaster. Her downfall came when she boasted to a fellow officer that she performed oral sex on Brownley multiple times and collected drug money on his behalf over six months in 2020.

Katerina Tatus was busted after a fellow officer dropped a dime on her alleged amorous antics. She worked at HMS Feltham Penitentiary.

But it is former guard, swinger and OnlyFans model Linda de Sousa Abreu who is the rock star of the group. She was jailed for 15 months after she was videotaped having sex in a jail cell with a career criminal. She was working as a prison officer at HMS Wandsworth at the time.

Her torrid tryst with career criminal Linton Weirich was filmed by another jailbird who was smoking marijuana as the action unfolded.

The 30-year-old married guard had sex with Weirich three times over several days. The raunchy footage soon hit the internet, and Abreu tried to flee the country.

Judge Martin Edmunds sentenced the sobbing Abreu to 15 months in prison, saying she was an “enthusiastic participant” in the wild sexual encounter.

Before becoming a guard, Abreu moonlighted as an OnlyFans model. At the time, Abreu claimed she “felt like a gangster” during sex with the jailbird and that she “loved” him.
