Allegations of Coercion
A close friend of De Sousa Abreu has told the Daily Mail that the prison guard was being blackmailed by inmates who had discovered her personal information, including her address, husbandâs name, and the existence of her OnlyFans account.
âThey knew about her OnlyFans account and used it against her,â the friend, identified as Hayley, claimed. âShe was under immense pressure and faced serious coercion. This was not a consensual actâit was a result of manipulation.â
Personal Struggles and Remorse
According to her friend, De Sousa Abreu was going through a difficult period at work and in her personal life, including marital problems.
âSheâs absolutely devastated by what happened and is full of remorse,â Hayley said. âLinda is not the person people are making her out to be. Sheâs a kind and caring individual who made a terrible mistake.â
De Sousa Abreu has reportedly turned to faith to find solace, with her friend adding, âShe has found comfort in God and is working hard to rebuild her life.â
Ongoing Challenges
Despite the scandal, De Sousa Abreu remains married and is focusing on saving her marriage and supporting her young child.
âShe and her husband are a lovely couple, and theyâre working hard to get through this,â Hayley said. âPeople shouldnât rush to judge her; everyone makes mistakes.â
The Viral Video
The explicit clip, which showed De Sousa Abreu in a compromising position with an inmate, was captured by a second prisoner who can be heard commenting, âThis is a movie, innit â gangsters online.â
The videoâs release prompted an investigation by London police in June. De Sousa Abreu was later arrested at Heathrow Airport on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
Legal Proceedings
De Sousa Abreu admitted to âmisconducting herself in a way that amounted to an abuse of the public’s trustâ by engaging in a sexual act with a prisoner. She was initially held in custody but was granted bail following a hearing at Uxbridge Magistratesâ Court earlier this month.
