A forensic psychiatrist has shed light on the psychological factors that may drive female prison officers into illicit relationships with inmates.
A London-based forensic psychiatrist and creator of the YouTube channel A Psych for Sore Minds, Dr. Sohom Das, explores crime, mental health, and related issues on his platform.
Recent reports indicate a concerning rise in such incidents, with 29 female prison officers dismissed over the past three years for engaging in inappropriate relationships—more than triple the nine cases recorded between 2017 and 2019.
Among the most publicized cases, former HMP Wandsworth officer Linda De Sousa Abreu received a 15-month prison sentence after a viral video surfaced of her engaging in sexual activity with an inmate.
