A female prison officer who gave birth to an inmate's baby has been jailed for two years after the child's birth certificate exposed their year-long fling
Corinne Redhead, 29, initially denied any misconduct allegations after sexual texts messages between her and inmate Robert O’Connor were discovered.The secret year-long relationship began while Redhead was working at The Mount Prison in Bovingdon, Hertfordshire, with questions only being raised six-months into her pregnancy.
Police were tipped off about the clandestine fling in 2019, with officers raiding O’Connor’s cell, where a mobile phone containing text messages was found in the u-bend of his toilet.One conversation containing sexual messages saw as many as 100 texts exchanged in just 72 hours.Arrested shortly after the phone’s discovery, Redhead initially denied a sexual relationship with O’Connor, who was serving a 10-year prison sentence.
Redhead’s lawyer, Drea Becker, told Luton Crown Court: “She is of previous good character and has made a very terrible mistake.“Over a period of months, she fell in love with a man called Robert O'Connor.The court also heard how Redhead was stored in O’Connor’s phone as ‘My Baby’. However, the judge said: “This was not a momentary lapse, but was carried out over an extended period of time.
Adding: “You could and should have stepped back, reported Mr O’Connor and stepped back from the relationship.”
