HMP Wandsworth Speaks Out Archives

Linda De Sousa Abreu, a 30-year-old prison officer, has broken her silence weeks after a scandalous video allegedly showing her having sex with an inmate at HMP Wandsworth went viral on social media. Background of the Incident The video purportedly shows De Sousa Abreu performing a sexual act on a male inmate in a cell at the Category B men's prison in South West London.

She was granted conditional bail and is set to appear at a plea hearing at Isleworth Crown Court on July 29. https://youtube.com/shorts/mczhAhhXcoA?si=b0HgGY54jzFQToxI De Sousa Abreu's Statement In a video shared on her Instagram account, which she emphasized is her only social media platform, De Sousa Abreu addressed the controversy for the first time: Denying Monetization and Fake Profiles She clarified that she has not monetized the scandal and warned against fake profiles and fundraisers in her name. She highlighted that numerous fake profiles on platforms like OnlyFans were pretending to be her and asking for money. "First thing being, there has been a lot, a tremendous amount of fake profiles of me that have been monetising off my misfortune, this scandal that the entire world has somehow managed to be involved in. I have not monetised one f***ing bit." Addressing the OnlyFans Issue De Sousa Abreu condemned adult content creators who were allegedly recreating the scandal for profit: "On the topic of impersonation, I think it's very important for me to address this very distasteful subject of OnlyFans creators pretending to be me and recreating the scenario of said scandal which I am involved in. Very, very distasteful for you to monetise or advertise yourselves as me for OF content." Calling for Respect She urged content creators to stop tagging HMP Wandsworth in their videos and emphasized the negative impact of such actions on her trial. Personal Reflections and Media Critique De Sousa Abreu shared her struggle with the public scrutiny and the betrayal she felt from people she trusted: "You don't know my side of the story and we'll leave it as that for now. The media has a great way of getting a narrative and twisting it for its own benefit." She also advised others to be cautious about whom they trust, recounting the difficulties she faced with leaked personal information and constant media attention. "You need to pick [your family and friends] very carefully. Very, very carefully. Obviously, everyone knows my mobile phone number was leaked, there have been people going behind my back, the media have literally been following me everywhere."
