JAIL WORKER HELPED TEEN BOY ESCAPE TO HAVE SEX

-

AN ATTRACTIVE teenage youth offenders worker has been accused of helping three prisoners escape – and having sex with one of them.

Blonde Hannah Fitzpatric­k, 19, was arrested by police yesterday.

She is accused of having it off with an underage offender who she was meant to be supervisin­g.

Police say she drove the unidentifi­ed inmate and two others out of the prison and to another location on February 2. That’s where she and her alleged victim had sex, say cops.

It is not clear if the inmates were ever recaptured or how her arrest came to be.

Once in custody, she is said to have confessed to all of the allegation­s.

Fitzpatric­k has been charged with sexual misconduct with an offender, a crime which carries a maximum sentence of two years. She is facing a separate charge for harbouring a runaway from the Four Oaks Juvenile nick in Davenport, Iowa, in a different area.

Fitzpatric­k was released from custody on bail pending her next court date.

One former co-worker said: “If she’s guilty then she’s done a dumb thing that will affect her employment for the rest of her life.

“This is one of the problems you have when kids are put in charge of kids. There are only a couple of years between them and it’s understand­able that relationsh­ips can develop.” CHARGED: Hannah Fitzpatric­k took lads out of Four Oaks nick
