A female officer at Maghaberry Prison has been arrested over | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
an alleged sexual affair with a convicted loyalist killer. | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
The officer has also been suspended from duty, while it's understood | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
the prisoner involved has been moved to an isolation unit | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
This is the loyalist killer at the centre of an alleged sex scandal | :00:19. | :00:32. | |
which has seen a female officer suspended and arrested. Robert Young | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
is serving a life sentence with this brutal murder in 2003. Drug dealer | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
Jim Johnston was shot outside his Crawfordsburn home. Jailing Young | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
for a minimum of 22 years, the judge at the time said he had shown | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
supreme indifference to both the murder and his conviction. He said | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
Young, now 51, was guilty of a brutal, callous murder. Prison | :00:57. | :01:02. | |
chiefs here at Maghaberry began to suspect that relationship was | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
developing between officer and Young while both were working in the | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
prison kitchens. It is understood the officer was arrested last week | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
as she arrived for work. The authorities, however, have begun to | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
suspect something was wrong much earlier. -- had begun. A decision | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
was taken to lodge a covert intelligence gathering operation | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
which eventually led to the police being cold in. The officer was | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
arrested and questioned about a suspected sexual relationship with | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
the prisoner. She has been released on police bail pending further | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
investigations. She potentially faces a charge of gross misconduct | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
in public office. In a statement, the Department of Justice said... | :01:44. | :01:58. | |
Tonight, I understand Robert Young is being held in the jail's | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
isolation unit as the authorities here try to establish if what was | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
allegedly going on Gusev led to any breach of prison security. -- could | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
have led. Almost 400 motorists were arrested | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
over Christmas accused of drinking and driving - one of them | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
was a police officer. The number of arrests | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
amounted to a 40% increase In spite of all the TV adverts, in | :02:20. | :02:43. | |
spite of all the police warning, the number of people drinking and | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
driving is not going down. In fact, it is going up. Over Christmas and | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
New Year, 396 people were arrested, 71 women, 325 men. That includes 1 | :02:54. | :03:00. | |
driver who was arrested twice within a few days, both on suspicion of | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
drink-driving. The 396 total number of arrests is much higher than last | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
year, a 40% increase. 1 of those arrested by the police was 1 of | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
their own officers. So, what happens to police officers if they are found | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
guilty of drinking and driving? A number of police officers have lost | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
their jobs in recent times and those people can certainly expect to find | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
themselves in front of a panel, 1 sanction available is the loss of | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
your job. This is the latest TV ad. The police hope drivers now get the | :03:35. | :03:41. | |
message. Everyone who has been drink-driving can expect to be taken | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
to court and can expect not a Matic disqualification from driving, they | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
will have to pass the driving test before being allowed back on road | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
and they can expect huge insurance bills. That is in addition to the | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
social embarrassment for being caught drinking and driving. So, who | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
are the people being arrested? Statistics show they are from right | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
across Northern Ireland and they are from all different ages, from | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
teenagers to 1 driver arrested this Christmas who was aged 83. The | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
holiday period may now be over, but the warnings and the testing will | :04:16. | :04:16. | |
continue. The police have arrested a man | :04:17. | :04:18. | |
they'd been searching for in connection with a serious | :04:19. | :04:20. | |
assault on a woman in Newtownabbey. Officers had appealed | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
for the 33-year-old man to contact them after the woman was critically | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
injured in the attack The police released a photo of him | :04:27. | :04:28. | |
and details of his car and had warned the public not | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
to approach him. He was arrested on the Newtownards | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
Road in Belfast this afternoon. There's been a verdict of accidental | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
death recorded at the inquest in England into the death | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
of Lord Ballyedmond, the Tory peer from Rostrevor, | :04:47. | :04:48. | |
his foreman Declan Small They were killed in March 2014 | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
when the helicopter they were travelling in came down | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
in dense fog in Norfolk. The 70-year-old founder | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
of Norbrook Laboratories was one The inquest heard there | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
were no mechanical faults with the helicopter, | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
but that it would not have been allowed to take off | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
from a licensed aerodrome in such The first real cold snap | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
of the winter has caused problems Overnight snow falls and freezing | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
conditions meant people living on higher ground and in more | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
isolated areas were worst hit, particularly in County Tyrone | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
and across the North West. Even they gritters were finding it | :05:30. | :05:43. | |
difficult in the wintry conditions and this vehicle wasn't alone. As | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
motorists on high ground and untreated roads struggled to cope. | :05:48. | :05:56. | |
We started out from any club this morning, the main roads were fine. | :05:57. | :06:01. | |
Some of the side roads and byways, there was quite a covering of snow | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
and ice. They are at the treacherous. In Derry, gritters | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
treating roads in Creggan had to be withdrawn for several hours | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
overnight after they were attacked by stonethrowers. 10 past 10 last | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
night, driver reported they had come under attack on the estate by youths | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
throwing snowballs and stones. Policy is when that occurs, the | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
driver is removed from that area for his own safety. Unfortunately, | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
number of roads in that area were then left untreated. Life on the | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
farm is on made harder by any cold snap. Giving livestock fed and | :06:42. | :06:51. | |
watered is a priority. I didn't expect so much of it this morning. | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
You cannot get the tractors out of the sheds and you can't get them to | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
start because of the cold. It just makes everything take a wee while | :07:00. | :07:08. | |
longer. Despite the weather, only 2 schools were forced to close across | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
Northern Ireland, 1 in Tyrone and the other in the Glens of Antrim. | :07:11. | :07:17. | |
Alternative methods of transport were being tried out. Elsewhere, the | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
more conventional travellers were taking it easy. Concentrating on the | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
road ahead of them. While others were taking the opportunity to grab | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
some spectacular pictures with their aerial drones. It doesn't matter | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
what colour your will is, it is all the same in this weather. And set to | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
continue with the forecast warning of subzero temperatures, freezing | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
fog and more ice on the way tonight. The former Prime Minister, | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
Tony Blair, has refused to appear before the Northern Ireland Affairs | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
Parliamentary Committee to answer questions on compensation | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
for victims of IRA attacks, carried out with | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
Libyan-supplied weapons. The DUP MP Gavin Robinson, | :07:58. | :07:59. | |
who's a member of the committee, said the decision was a snub | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
to IRA victims who were injured That was the news, now the weekend | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
weather forecast with Geoff Maskell. Good evening. A very cold night | :08:06. | :08:25. | |
tonight. In some rural areas, temperatures could be done as low as | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
-7 and below freezing just about everywhere. A real risk of icy | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
patches on the roads and some freezing fog. The Met Office has | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
issued a severe weather warning for ice, which remains in place all the | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
way through tonight and tomorrow morning. As we head into the | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
weekend, it will be a cold start, break for some before skies over. It | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
might take a while for the freezing fog to clear, especially across the | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
East of Northern Ireland. A bit of a battle between the cloud cover | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
moving in. It might see some bright spells for a time during the | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
morning. There are still some very strong winds, particularly along the | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
East coast of England. Where the skies are clearest, temperatures | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
climbing around six Celsius. We will not see much in the way of | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
brightness because we will get skies coding overhead of this front. That | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
will mainly fall as rain, but the possibility of sleet or snow over | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
high ground. The extra cloud cover means that temperatures tomorrow | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
night will not be as cold as tonight. Sunday, we have high | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
pressure over us, but in the main, it will trap some cloud over | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
Northern Ireland, still temperatures might creep up again to around 6 or | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
7. Milder than they have been. But not expecting much more in the way | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
of snow. But I wouldn't put away the double duvet just yet. | :09:50. | :09:51. | |
Our next BBC Newsline is at 5:50 tomorrow evening. | :09:52. | :09:53. | |
From all of us here, goodnight and have a great weekend. | :09:54. | :09:58. |
