Leeds prison officer admits relationship with inmate
A prison officer had admitted to having an inappropriate relationship with an inmate which included exchanging more than 900 messages with his mother. Megann Gibson also accepted she had engaged in "sexual communications" with the prisoner at HMP Wealstun in Wetherby, near 26-year-old admitted misconduct in a public office and possession of cannabis at Leeds Crown Court earlier and will be sentenced on 14 August at the same court. Gibson, of Fearnville Terrace, Roundhay, was released on unconditional bail but the judge told her the offence was a "serious matter" so not to "look into that too much". "You may well be serving a prison sentence", he added. The court heard Gibson allowed the inmate into areas of the Category C jail where he was not supposed to be, and visited his home address. Gibson's defence counsel said her client was in the process of being diagnosed with various mental health issues and potentially had PTSD from a previous relationship.

Wetherspoons to open The Angel in Wetherby after licence granted
JD Wetherspoon has been granted a licence to open a new pub in a West Yorkshire town. The company bought The San Angelo restaurant in Wetherby in 2022 and subsequently received planning permission to develop the premises. At a Leeds Council licensing hearing on Tuesday, Wetherspoons was told it could serve alcohol until midnight on weekdays and 01:00 BST on weekends. Two letters of objection from nearby residents had been submitted to the council, citing concerns about public nuisance when the site was previously a pub. But representing Wetherspoons at the hearing, Nigel Connor said the new premises, which will be called The Angel after the pub that was once based at the site, would have a family-friendly atmosphere. He said: "Food sales will be crucial to this pub. There is no happy hour, no time-related promotions."We have policies and procedures to prevent excessive consumption of alcohol." 'Incidents of disruption' Wetherby councillor Norma Harrington said most local people had no objections to Wetherspoons and suggested it could help "regenerate the town". But she also voiced concerns over rowdy behaviour from people visiting for events at Wetherby added: "We have large coachloads of predominantly males coming to race meetings. There have been incidents of disruption and public disorder."Wetherspoons said it would put security in place if required. Councillors decided unanimously to grant the application, the Local Democracy Reporting Service said.
