London: So, there’s been quite a shocking incident at HMP Swaleside. Linton Weirich, the guy who got filmed with a guard, was attacked by another inmate. And get this—a three-month-old baby was caught up in it!
Last year, footage of Weirich and officer Linda De Sousa Abreu went viral. She’s now serving time for misconduct. It’s a wild story, right? Weirich, 36, was moved to Swaleside after all that drama.
He was in the visitors’ area when the attack happened. According to the police, he got punched and ended up falling onto the baby he was holding. The poor little one suffered a fractured skull but is out of the hospital now.
Police are on the case, trying to figure out who did it. They’ve identified a suspect, but no arrests have been made yet. It’s just a mess all around.
And remember, after that scandal with De Sousa Abreu, she was arrested while trying to leave the country. She ended up pleading guilty and got a 15-month sentence. What a turn of events!
