FUMING victims of a lag allegedly filmed having sex with prison guard Linda de Sousa Abreu say she is the only person being "punished".

Linton Weirich, 36, is serving time at HMP Wandsworth after a spate of burglaries in homes across South West London.

The prisoner, who was on tag at the time of the offences, was jailed for four years and nine months in June.

But footage emerged on Friday, captured by a second prisoner on a smuggled phone, of Weirich romping with a prison guard at the jail.

He is understood to have been placed into segregation, but is not currently under investigation and is unlikely to face further punishment in relation to the X-rated footage.

It has left Weirich's victims fuming, as one blasted: "It sounds like the prison officer is the only one being punished."

They told The Sun: "I was aware of the video. I just didn’t know that was our burglar. The whole thing seems surreal.

"This is not what we thought it meant to get hard time in prison."

The homeowner was having work done on her property when Weirich stole a couple of drills - before he was quickly arrested.

Another victim recalled how he had a bicycle stolen from outside his home last December.

He said: "It’s hardly justice though if he’s having fun in prison."

Weirich was convicted at Kingston Crown Court of multiple counts of burglary and going equipped.

Three of the break-ins were carried out just minutes away from the flat in Richmond, South West London, where he lived with his now heavily pregnant girlfriend.

Weirich was also handed a 54-month concurrent sentence for stealing jewellery and £65,000 of goods in a raid on a South Kensington flat.

Prior to the sentencing, he was posed with designer clothes and gold chains in snaps posted on his Instagram account.

In one photo, the lag is seen with chains, rings and a large watch as he poses by a bar within Mayfair's glamorous Sexy Fish restaurant.

Other photos show him posing at The Shard and inside The Ned private members' club.

The wannabe fitness influencer also posted a number of topless workout videos on his TikTok.

Weirich is seen performing a number of high intensity exercises and building up a sweat in small rooms.

He also posted a video leaving prison in October last year after he was banged up for dangerous driving.

In the TikTok clip, Weirich can be seen embracing a woman who had been waiting for him on the outside.

He ironically captioned the post: "Freedom is priceless."

It comes as de Sousa Abreu appeared at Uxbridge Magistrates' Court on Monday charged with misconduct in public office.
