Prison guard charged for sex with inmate A US federal prison guard has been charged with sexually abusing a convicted cop killer whose child she is carrying, and she had an affair with a second inmate while pregnant, prosecutors say. A visibly pregnant Nancy Gonzalez, 29, appeared briefly in court on Tuesday before a federal judge in Brooklyn before being released on bail. She faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted. The woman, who worked the night shift at the Brooklyn Metro Detention Centre in New York, is accused of having a four-month affair with Ronell Wilson that ended in August. Wilson was convicted and sentenced to death for the 2003 murder of two New York City police officers. But a federal appeals court tossed out the death sentence in 2010, and he is awaiting his sentence before a new jury. Other prisoners blew the whistle on the affair with Gonzalez, said to be eight months pregnant, court documents showed. "I took a chance, because I was so vulnerable and wanted to be loved and now I am carrying his child," Gonzalez said in a recorded telephone call to another inmate, according to the files. She also allegedly said that getting pregnant with a child from Wilson could give him "some kind of hope." Gonzalez began her affair with the other inmate in September. A former detainee at the Brooklyn prison, he was transferred in recent months to another New York jail.
