Brit nurse arrested for having sex with violent rapist

London, Aug 29 (ANI): A nurse working at Broadmoor, a psychiatric hospital in England, has been arrested following claims that she was having a four-month fling with a violent rapist, who is a patient there.

Rhoda Makambaire, who is married, was accused of having sex sessions with brutal Kelly Edney, 29.

They allegedly romped on the mental hospital's Epsom Ward, for patients who are deemed incurable or show no signs of remorse.

Another nurse was also arrested, for allegedly keeping watch as Edney and the mum of one had sex.

The nurses, in their 30s, were quizzed by cops under the Sexual Offences Act, and were suspended along with a third nurse who allegedly knew about the affair.

Edney was yesterday moved from Broadmoor to top-security Rampton hospital, Notts.

His room was sealed off, and officers removed sheets and clothing for forensic checks.

The rapist, who also has convictions for arson, assault and hoax bomb calls, allegedly told cops that he had full and oral sex with a nurse.

Broadmoor in Berkshire was last month slammed for high suicide rates and failure to protect patients. Bosses are horrified by the latest scandal.

"It doesn't get much worse than this," the Sun quoted an insider as saying.

Edney, of Bridgwater, Somerset, was sectioned under the Mental Health Act.

Makambaire, of Bracknell, Berks, earns 30,000 pounds a year as a nurse working on the dangerous and severe personality disorder unit.

Police and Broadmoor confirmed the investigation, but refused to comment further. (ANI)
