Constance Marten Reported to Be Isolating at HMP Bronzefield Under Continuous Watch

Tabloid accounts describe ACCT safeguarding with close observation after her sentencing.

Overview

  • Unnamed prison sources say Marten has stayed in her cell and declined to mix with other inmates following her 14-year sentence for offences related to her newborn's death.
  • Reports state she turned down offered prison jobs in cleaning, the library and the kitchen, which would typically provide privileges and require contact with others.
  • Staff have opened an ACCT record for her, with sources saying continuous supervision was introduced over concerns about self-harm or potential targeting by prisoners.
  • Coverage identifies her as prisoner A9624X on Unit 4 at HMP Bronzefield, reportedly housed near high-profile offenders including Lucy Letby and Beinash Batool.
  • Sources also claim she asked to be moved away from those inmates and is planning to appeal; the prison operator declined to comment on individuals.
