A jail worker has been freed from the court after having a relationship with a convict drug dealer.
23 -year -old Megan Breen, will travel to Mercesticed area to meet Prisoner While he was on home leave and even stayed in one hotel To celebrate her 20th birthday with her.
The Cardiff Crown Court heard that a category D Open Jail in Burn Guent was working as an operational aid grade worker at HMP PressCode.
While working in the night shift, she met an anonymous prisoner and made arrangements to meet him during a home holiday in the Mercestic area in preparation for the release.
He was imprisoned for a conspiracy to supply Class A drugs for four years and four months in October 2020 and was shifted to a breen prison in May 2021.
The court heard that Burn recited the prisoner on a jail-day mobile Nokia phone, which was given to him at home holiday and day’s release, and also socialized with his family while living on a visit to Liverpool.
Breen was appointed in jail since June 2021 and was warned of the dangers of improper relationship with prisoners during his induction training.
In March 2022, he admitted to a colleague about the relationship that informed the seniors and was suspended.
While prosecution, Thomas Stanway told the court: “Her response was a mistrust and confirmed that she was at the release of the house while she was at home and she went back to her hotel together.
“She also revealed that she had met her family and she liked her, and she liked them.”
Breen told her that she had met the prisoner in Mercesis as part of an overnight journey to celebrate her 20th birthday.
The prisoner met Breen from prison and two of his colleagues from jail before returning to his hotel room together, who did not recognize him to drink.
Breen traveled from 1 April to 4, 8 April to 11 April to 11 April and 22 to 25 April to see the prisoner, which was released on the license on 31 March.
Mr. Stanway said, “In his defense case statement, the defendant admitted immediately after his release from jail.”
The prisoner’s cell was later discovered and a piece of paper was recovered with a breen’s mobile phone number and Snapchat handle.
The discoveries of Breen’s mobile phone found messages and calls between him and the prisoner.
“The message shows a clear relationship between the defendant and the male prisoner,” said Mr. Stanway.
“The defendant and the male prisoner said that they love each other and use other conditions of affection and heart emoji.”
Scott Bowen defended that Breen was a single son of a young son, working as a career for another child, and recently revealed that she was pregnant.
“This is a case that will bother him,” he said.
“She made it clear that this was the hardest morning of her life that was saying goodbye to her son, and knowing that she could not see her for predisposition.”
Cardiff’s recorder, Judge Tracy Lloyd-Clarke said that Breen showed “repentance” for his works and said he did not threaten the public.
He said that the pregnancy and childcare responsibilities of Breen were an important factor in deciding to suspend his sentence.
“I am satisfied that your conviction was more and you knew that what you were doing was wrong,” he said.
“You told a colleague about Liverpool’s recent birthday journey with two colleagues.
“You revealed that while living there, you slept with a person you said, there was a prisoner, with which you used to speak during the duties of the night.
“When he demanded an explanation, you pointed to his picture on the screen and identified the prisoner.
“He initially thought that it could be one jokeBut you said that when you were on home leave, you met the prisoner, you went out for the drink, and eventually returned together to your hotel.
“You revealed that you met the prisoner’s family.
“You introduced two of your colleagues to a very difficult situation by introducing them to the prisoner, which they did not recognize, which they were put in a position where they were inadvertently violating prohibition in contact with a prisoner.
“It is clear that immediate custody will harm others, namely your son, your unborn child and the child you care.
“I am satisfied that your pregnancy, your son’s needs, your unborn baby and the child you care is an extraordinary case and the punishment should be suspended.”
The judge sentenced him to 10 months jail suspended for 18 months, or ordered him to pay £ 500 in the cost of prosecution and rehabilitate 15 days.
The second charge of unauthorized computer access was ordered to lie on the file.
