Prison guards strike over lenient assault sentence | 7NEWS

More than 5,000 prison guards across the state have walked off the job in protest over a community-based sentence given to inmate Cameron Welsh, who assaulted four correctional officers at Cessnock Correctional Centre in February. The assault left all four officers hospitalised with serious facial injuries including fractured eye sockets, cheekbones and broken noses, with two officers unable to return to work. Welsh received no additional jail time and could be released as early as tomorrow, prompting the widespread strike that has forced all public correctional facilities to operate under lockdown with skeleton staff.
