Prison guard scalded by boiling water thrown by lag with 32 convictions
A prison guard suffered burns when an inmate threw a kettle of boiling water over him, a court head. Paul Blake, 42, was serving time for a knife-point robbery when he launched the attack on the officer in HMP Lowdham Grange on December 24, 2020.
The water scalded his face, shoulder, neck and chest - but a face mask gave him some protection. It left him only being able to sleep a couple of hours a night. Another officer suffered soreness to his back during the incident.READ MORE: Worker has both arms amputated after being dragged into cement mixer at Nottingham firm
