A man who had inappropriate relationships with two prison staff members and escaped in handcuffs from hospital has been sent back to jail.
Harri Pullen, 27, was arrested in Newport with crack cocaine on 2 April, but after being taken to hospital for head pain, he fled in a getaway car and was found a week later hiding in a rural farmhouse.
While serving a previous four-year sentence at HMP Parc in Bridgend, he had inappropriate romances with a jail nurse and a prison officer – one of whom was convicted, while the other sacked.
Pullen pleaded guilty to 11 offences, including drug possession, escaping custody, and dangerous driving, and has been sentenced to six more years in prison.
Former prison nurse Elyse Hobbs, 27, from Newbridge, Caerphilly county, was jailed for having an inappropriate relationship with Pullen while he was behind bars.
Ruth Shmylo, 26, lost her job as a prison officer over an alleged relationship with Pullen, who contacted her through secret calls from his cell.
Although she admitted emotional distress and failing to report the contact, she was found not guilty of misconduct in public office.
