Sixteen people are being sentenced over roles in the UK's largest prison drug-smuggling ring.
Mental health nursing assistant Amy Hatfield smuggled drugs into HMP Lindholme for prisoner Joseph WhittinghamA health worker at the heart of the biggest prison drug-smuggling ring ever uncovered has been jailed for more than 10 years.
She was recruited to the conspiracy by her inmate lover Joseph Whittingham, who was jailed for more than 11 years.They include six Lindholme inmates, family members and friends who helped to smuggle drugs including heroin, MDMA, spice, ketamine and cannabis into the prison and launder the profits. They would place orders through prison drug dealers Whittingham, 35, Jordan Needham, 31, Kieran Murphy, 26, Aneeze Williamson, 30, and convicted murderer Anthony Campbell, 38, who used co-conspirators outside of jail to arrange shipments of drugs and receive payments.
South Yorkshire Police uncovered the smuggling network after Hatfield, of Hawthorne Street, Barnsley, was caught arriving at work with drugs with an estimated prison value of £1m.
