Long-time staff member at HMP Wandsworth reveals shocking details of life inside one of the UK 's most troubled prisons.
She describes an environment out of control where prisoners are locked in their cells 24 hours a day.
Vulnerable inmates are used as drug 'guinea pigs' and serious violence is common.
Vulnerable prisoners are coerced into becoming “guinea pigs” to test new drug batches.
Synthetic cannabinoids, especially Spice , are regularly smuggled into the prison.
Violence is fuelled by inmates’ homebrews known as “hooch” made from bread, fermented fruit, and sometimes stolen yeast from kitchen staff.
The Ministry of Justice has stressed that it will “never tolerate violence or sexual abuse towards our hard-working staff”.
